Unable to identify UI Element in WebPage

I came across UiPath_custom_id

Hi @Meyammai ,

Please check this explanation provided by UiPath:

Web: provoking uipath_custom_id creation

Hello @RPraschma, The uipath_custom_id attribute is indeed created by the browser plugin but it’s something that the plugin uses internally and offers no guarantees when it comes to predictability. So you should definitely not include it in your selectors. Can you post some more details about your scenario? The application you’re trying to automate or some selectors would help.

In conclusion, you should definitely not include the UiPath_custom_id attribute in your selectors

I also tried to add in a hotkeys activity to scroll down and it doesn’t work either.

Could you please say exactly what is not working? Does the UiPath activity throws errors? Did you try to tick/untick the SendWindowMessages option or the Activate option from the Send Hotkey activity and see whether it’s working or not?

In order to find out a solution, could you please share your workflow? and/or some prints with your valid selector?

Thank you!
Best regards,
Marius
