Hi @ pavlou_antwnis,

try type in down arrow and then select item in some drop down lists you must do this.

5

Use “Click” activity on the drop down and another “click” with dynamic selectors to select the required value.

i try this i think so , but not working because the select the first

i try this but not working .
I use click activity to show the list and after click activity to select the 2 Tony but not working

Ok now see if the elements are not dynamic becouse if you have Tony and Tony … the sector must be dynamic for sure

What difference does it make if you select the first one rather the second once if both are same?? IF they are static then you may have the index in the list check the selector in the UiExplorer.

If you have a parent selector for drop down you can use the Click text activity and pass the Occurrence value = 2 to choose the second one passed on aa name.

how to check if the element is dynamic

I know that there can be many Luis but how do you differentiate if you just say Luis you may definitely have a combination of first name last name or any unique this which will differentiate between Luis and Luis.

I don’t know how can I answer because I have not asked the question.
