Hi,

I was trying to capture a textbox in a web application in a loop and I am getting this error every time I try to do so. Please help me with this.

    Hi @ajith 2492 

    Checkout below screenshot to change different technology using capture command. Can you try changing to “Capture object with Microsoft UI Automation (COM)” and give a try?

     

    Also checkout below documentation to know more,

    my text box is being captured as a combo box. I think that’s why set text action is not shown

    Probably, can you try with other Capture Object technologies

    Hi @ajith 2492 ,

     

    If the above suggested approach doesn’t help, please try after changing the Recorder package version.

    Hi @Padmakumar 

    Tried changing recorder package version but still same error is showing. Is there any other reason this error is showing?

    Normally, the suggested approaches should fix the issue. So, in your case, I would recommend raising a support ticket with AA here for better understanding and fixing the same.
