0:00 Intro
Today we are automating Google Chrome with Microsoft Power Automate Desktop, but the same approach is used for Edge or Firefox. We go to a URL, login into a system, take a screenshot and log out.
0:48 Open a Browser and Go to URL
1:47 Login on a Web page
We store the username and password as variables. The best practice is to keep them in a secure place. Use a populate text field on web page action to type the username and password into the internet page.
3:49 Selectors
A selector is an address of the different elements on a web page. It’s in the CSS format.
6:52 Click a button in a browser
We use the Click link on web page to click a button (element) in a browser.
8:07 Take Screenshot
The Take screenshot of web page action takes a screenshot of an entire web page (or a specific element).
