Hi guys, I am very new to Power Automate Desktop and have a puzzle that I have been down endless and even ridiculous rabbit holes to figure out. I am opening a NetSuite page and need to select an account number from a dropdown that is not searchable and is not a type ahead. Is this even possible? I feel like I have tried everything, even triple clicking on the account number in the box, copying to clipboard and if match hit enter if not hit down button. (Incase you are wondering while this works manually it does not work in the flow mostly because the mouse seems to travel.) Any ideas?

    Hi,

    Can you elaborate with screenshots what it is that you are trying to do? 

    If I understood correctly you are trying to select a certain value from a dropdown element but you are having trouble doing so. 

    Have you tried with "Set drop-down list value on web page" -action?


    So you would change the hard coded "Germany" in this example to a variable that has the name that you want to select on the drop down menu
