@Royy_B,

Assuming you are navigating URL from Excel using Use application/browser activity. Here you have the below approaches to handle the URL wrong/invalid/page not found etc.

  1. Use Try/Catch Block:
  • Wrap your navigation activities within a Try/Catch block.
  • This will allow the process to handle exceptions when an invalid URL is encountered.
  1. Check App State Activity:
  • Use the Check App State activity to verify the presence of an element that indicates the successful loading of the page.
  • If the element is not found, you can throw a custom exception.
  1. Use Element Exists Activity:
  • Place an Element Exists activity right after the Open Browser activity.
  • If the element indicating a successful page load does not appear, this activity will return false.
  1. Throw Custom Exception:
  • If the Element Exists returns false in the If condition, throw a custom business exception using the Throw activity.
  • Example: Throw New BusinessRuleException("URL is invalid").

Hey @Royy_B simply use use browser or else open browser and surround one of these activity you are working with Try Catch and in the Catch Section Use Throw activity and pass New BusinessRuleException(“Write your Own Custom Exception”).
