How to pass in variables in the 🌐"Browser: Run JavaScript" action in Automation Anywhere?🤔

Hi Community,

here is my guide how you can do it

Step 1️⃣ :
Use the "Log to File: Log text to file" action and set the "File path" to a file with a .js extension. (C:\Users\marc.mueller\Desktop\AA_Slider.js)

Put your JavaScript code in the "Enter text to log" textbox with your variables. (see screenshot)

Make sure to set the "When logging" property to "Overwrite existing log file" to have the current variable in your JavaScript code.

Step 2️⃣ :
I the "Browser: Run JavaScript" action set the "JavaScript to run" as "Import existing file" and point to the same file we have specified in Step 1️⃣ .

I hope you find this useful.

Now I am curious to hear about your solutions?

Cheers
Marc

That is how I do it too!

There is also an action called String: Evaluate variable that does the same thing, but keeps the values in a variable rather than having to write to a file.

I’m also doing it this way for all my JS file creations.

However, it seems like there may be a file size limit to this method.

I actually asked about this yesterday:

@Marc 1985, thank you for sharing this!
