Using variables in wildcard match for Blue Prism?

Question

I'm trying to identify an element, using "Wildcard" as match type. Say, you click on an element, like a box, on a web page. You'd want that box to contain the word city. In that case, within application modeler, you'd to this: *city*

This works fine. Now, what I want is to keep city as a variable, to make it more scalable. As an example, I'd create a data item named [city], and give it the value "Istanbul". So, when I do the same Wildcard match, with something like this: [city]

, so I'd want Blue Prism to replace [city] with "Istanbul", and do a search that contains a box with Istanbul in it. Is this possible?

Answer 1

I will suggest you to try with dynamic match

1.  Spy the element
2. Edit the parameters 
3.  Use the wild card match method with some string concatenation.
