Hi,
I have been using a type into on a search bar and a click activity for the suggestion coming from the search bar and have tried using selectors, computer visioning. But there are too many ads above and below the search bar, so every time the process runs, it has been clicking on the ads, and a new browser is popping up about the ads. Due to which my required output is not coming.
Is there any activity that could help me in working the indicated ones properly?
Thank you!

Hi @Vijaylakshmi_2

Before clicking on a suggestion, use the Element Exists or Check App State activity to verify that the suggestion element is present.
If it’s feasible, you can run the automation in a browser with an ad blocker installed, which can reduce the chance of ads interfering with your process.

Hope it helps!!

Hi @Vijaylakshmi_2

Better use the ADS blocker in the chrome browser extension [Total Adblock] or change the browser to Edge and test the scenario.

If you want to continue with the same browser, need to repeatedly loop for the success scenario, if you expected page has not launched, then close the tab and continue the process for N times.

Thanks,
Chethan
