Is there a way to pass object repository as a variable item? Let us say I have a type into activity.
If my input variable (of type string) ElementName = “Username”, then we should pass the Username object from the object repository to the type into activity.
If my input variable (of type string) is ElementName = “Password”, then we should pass the Password object from the object repository to the type into activity.
This is mainly for a reusable component. Since we need to perform this Type Into activity on a different elements in a page depending on conditions, we would like to have only TypeInto activity and pass the objects based on the input argument.
Update: We can use the input argument in the Type Into to pass the UiElemement. My question is - Based on the ElementName (string input), how can we assign UiElement to the Input Argument of the Type into.
i.e If ElementName (Of data type string) = Username then Assign InputElementName( of UiElement datatype) = ???

Did you ever figure out a way to do this? I am trying to create a dynamic workflow that takes a UiElement variable as input argument.
I would love to use my Object Repository elements for this, for easier future updating. If I could manually add the reference to the unique ID that is given to each element, I’d be content. But I’ve not been able to find if this possible anywhere…
