The web application I’m attempting to select drop down value is not working and I believe it’s due to the drop down list is a custom creation by some javascript library. It made up of html div’s. Does anyone know how I might be able to select a value from a drop down list like this? The select Item activity doesn’t work. I’ve tried scrolling down and select but that doesn’t seem to be working either.
Sometimes in these scenarios you need to do two clicks.
One click to press the drop down box, which will display all the items, then the click, which is based on the selector of the item in the list.
You need to do the delay action when getting the selector, so you can first open the dropdown, then when its ready, click on the menu item, you should see the selector for the menu item and if you can work with it
Hi @kevin.clark
Can you please show how does your drop down look on the website?
Also can you please show your selector for this activity?
have you tried exploring attributes using uiexplorer?
I have not tried exploring attributes using uiexplorer, I can try that.

Its a betton tag that you are seeing
Use a click to opwn dropdown
And then one more click with innertext as variable and other attribute being tag and class as they seem to be same…you can pass the value to click to the variable in innertext and the click should be working
Cheers
From the property screenshot - It looks like tagged under button
You can achieve click using simulate options and dynamic value passing in the selector options
Click on the drop down first
Second click should be simulate click with the value as a dynamic property in the drop down
I’ve attempted to follow your advice without any luck up to this point. In my second click The Fuzzy selector is as following:
I manually added “Button” to the type value as it was empty before and I added the value property and value. Is there a specific dynamic property I’m missing? The screen shot is the properties of my second click.
Hi @kevin.clark
Could you please share both the selectors here?
first one to simply open the drop down list
second one to select value from drop down list
“”
Blockquote “”
thanks. Could you also share the selector for second click where you are selecting the value?
I did, the second one has the M-Rate S4 innerText value.
Ohh, I just checked.
I dont think you should be adding type as button there as its not a button.
get the selector again by clicking at the value and please share that one..
that selector plus enabling simulate from options->input mode should do the trick

Thank you so much. I deleted all the orphaned click objects and re-created the second click activity and now it’s working!!!
