UiPath.UIAutomationX.Activities.SelectItem

Selects an item from a combo box or list box. After you indicate the element on screen, the list with all the available options is displayed in the activity. Must be added inside an Application Card activity.

🚧

Important:

Using this activity on a combo box or list box that has not been interacted with before you run the workflow can cause the activity to throw an error. The best practice to avoid this issue is to add a Click activity configured to click the target drop-down menu before the Select Item activity is executed.

In the Body of the Activity

• Indicate Target - Indicate the list box or combo box to select from by moving the mouse to it and clicking it.
• After you indicate the target:
  • Select the item from the drop-down menu at the bottom of the activity.
  • Click the Options button and then select one of the available options to further configure your target.
    • Indicate Target - Indicate the target again.
    • Configure Target - Configure advanced options for the target.
    • Highlight Target - View the currently selected target on your display surrounded in a box.

Properties

Common

• ContinueOnError - Specifies if the automation should continue even when the activity throws an error. This field only supports Boolean values (True, False). The default value is False. As a result, if the field is blank and an error is thrown, the execution of the project stops. If the value is set to True, the execution of the project continues regardless of any error.
• Delay After - Delay (in milliseconds) between the time this activity is completed and the time the next activity begins any operations. The default value is 300 milliseconds. Adding a delay between activities ensures that one activity has enough time to complete before the next activity begins.
• Delay Before - Delay (in milliseconds) between the time the previous activity is completed and the time this activity begins performing any operations. The default value is 200 milliseconds. Adding a delay between activities ensures that one activity has enough time to complete before the next activity begins.
• Display Name - The name displayed for the activity in the Designer panel. A display name is automatically generated when you indicate a target.

Input

• Item - Specifies the item to select from the list box or combo box.

Misc

• Private - If selected, the data used by the activity is not saved to the StudioX logs when the project is executed.
