Hi @Nils Pottbäcker​ ,

 

Can you check only DOMXpath and remove rest of the properties and try again?

Hi @Nils Pottbäcker​ ,

 

Can you try with below Xpath and confirm?

 

//select[@name='Ergebnis']/option[contains(text(),'Give Your Selection Value from Dropdown')]

 

Checkout below article to learn more about Xpath,

Hi @Nils Pottbäcker​ ,

 

Can you share the URL, or screenshot of the inspected element we can help you to build a custom Xpath?

Hi @Nils Pottbäcker​ ,

 

Could you inspect the button using this option in the inspection panel so that we may get its example DOM attributes?

imageIf nothing else works, after the dropdown is highlighted, you could try using keystrokes to interact with it.

 

Kind Regards,

Hi @Nils Pottbäcker​ ,

 

Could you try this:

 

//input[@id='Pruefergebnis-selectized' and @role='combobox']

 

Just add and/or substract attributes and check if that works out for you.

 

Kond Regards,

Hello @Nils Pottbäcker​,

 

Could you confirm if you are using 'Click' or 'Left Click' action? Please trying using 'Click' action if already using 'Left Click' action or vice-versa and validate.
