​@arpit45 , you can use a wildcard character (like *) in the window variable. For example, to match any window title containing "chrome," you can use *chrome.

Can you please show me an example for that?

Hi ​@DK 964 , 

I tried the solution you gave me but it is still not working as expected, see in the first step , I am opening in new Window and in the second step I am using wildcard, but the JS is not being applied to the new Window. Instead of *CropLandCros i tried using *chrome also, please suggest me what should I do ?


thanks,
Arpit

Hi ​@arpit45 ,

For me its working. 

check the parameters in the attached screenshots.

Make sure on line 2 you have seletected Browser Tab as “Browser” not “application”.

Also check the browser package and AA bot agent version.

(function() { 
    var slider = document.querySelector("divyrole='slider']");
    var track = document.querySelector(".esri-slider__track");

        var trackRect = track.getBoundingClientRect();

        var startX = sliderRect.left + sliderRect.width / 2;

        setTimeout(animateMove, 50); 
    } else { 
        console.error("Slider or track element not found."); 
    } 
})();

Can we connect ​@DK 964 , I would really appreciate your help, I really want to learn these things.
 I tried this solution but it is not working in the new Window.
Here is the Browser I already had CroplandCROS opened so I selected that.

I am trying to automate a slider movement on a website using Automation Anywhere's "Run JavaScript" action. The goal is to dynamically update the slider based on a Number variable $Year$, which changes in a loop from 2007 to 2010.

Issue:

• The JavaScript script below works perfectly when I manually enter a year (e.g., var targetYear = 2007;).
• However, when I try to pass Automation Anywhere's $Year$ variable, the script throws an error, indicating that targetYear is NaN.
• The issue seems to be that Automation Anywhere is not injecting $Year$ correctly into JavaScript, or it is treating it as a string rather than a number.

Code I am using:

(function() { 
    var slider = document.querySelector("divirole='slider']"); 
    var track = document.querySelector(".esri-slider__track"); 
    if (slider && track) { 
        var targetYear = `$Year$`, minYear = 1997, maxYear = 2023; 
        var trackRect = track.getBoundingClientRect(); 
        var posX = ((targetYear - minYear) / (maxYear - minYear)) * trackRect.width; 
        var targetX = trackRect.left + posX; 
        var sliderRect = slider.getBoundingClientRect(); 
        var startX = sliderRect.left + sliderRect.width / 2; 
        function moveSlider(stepX) { 
            var eventMove = new PointerEvent("pointermove", { bubbles: true, cancelable: true, composed: true, clientX: stepX, clientY: trackRect.top + trackRect.height / 2 }); 
            slider.dispatchEvent(eventMove); 
        } 
        var pointerDown = new PointerEvent("pointerdown", { bubbles: true, cancelable: true, composed: true, clientX: startX, clientY: trackRect.top + trackRect.height / 2 }); 
        slider.dispatchEvent(pointerDown); 
        let currentX = startX, stepSize = (targetX - startX) / 20; 
        function animateMove() { 
            if (Math.abs(currentX - targetX) < Math.abs(stepSize)) { 
                moveSlider(targetX); 
                setTimeout(() => { 
                    var pointerUp = new PointerEvent("pointerup", { bubbles: true, cancelable: true, composed: true, clientX: targetX, clientY: trackRect.top + trackRect.height / 2 }); 
                    slider.dispatchEvent(pointerUp); 
                }, 100); 
            } else { 
                currentX += stepSize; 
                moveSlider(currentX); 
                setTimeout(animateMove, 10); 
            } 
        } 
        setTimeout(animateMove, 50); 
    } else { 
        console.error("Slider or track element not found."); 
    } 
})();

Console Error in Chrome DevTools:

Uncaught TypeError: Failed to construct 'MouseEvent': Failed to read the 'clientX' property from 'MouseEventInit': The provided double value is non-finite. at triggerEvent ((index):14:25) at animateMove ((index):40:17)

Invalid targetYear: NaN

Troubleshooting Done:

Verified $Year$ is a Number Variable in AA (Default: 2007)
Checked "Use as Input" for $Year$
Manually replacing $Year$ with a number works
Console logs confirm AA is not injecting $Year$ correctly

Has anyone else faced this issue in Automation Anywhere's "Run JavaScript" action? How can I properly inject $Year$ as a number into JavaScript?

 

Hi ​@arpit45,

to pass in variables you should write these to a JavaScript file like below.

Create a list and loop through that list with your years and assign this to a variable and re-write the JavaScript file.

This should do the triick I guess.

What do you think?

Cheers

Marc

Hi ​@arpit45,

if  it is not working try to use targetYear = parseInt('$Year$') in your JavaScript code.

Let me know if this worked for you please. 

Cheers

Marc

Hi ​@arpit45,

I tested your code on that particular website and it works as expected → see screens below

​@arpit45, ​@Dineshkumar Muthu  have you been able to connect and figure it out? We’d love to hear how you solved it!

Hi ​@Shreya.Kumar,

​@Marc 1985 Thank you! Just came across the duplicate post and got a strong sense of Deja Vu
