Find Images
The example below explains how to identify the number of appearances of the same image under different names. It presents activities such as Find Image Matches and Find Image. You can find these activities in the UiPath.UIAutomation.Activities package.
This is how the automation process can be built:
-
Open Studio and create a new Process.
Note: A simple web page with a predefined design is needed in order to run this example. Make sure to create/use your own web page or to use the one provided by us in the downloadable example. -
Drag a Sequence container in the Workflow Designer and name it Count Errors.
-
Create the following variables:
Variable Name
Variable Type
Default Value
CurrentDirectory
String
 XMatches
System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable<UiPath.Core.UiElement>
 PagePath
String
Â
-
- Drag a Sequence container inside the Count Errors container and name it Init PagePath.
-
Open the Init PagePath sequence and add an Assign activity inside it.
- Add the variable
CurrentDirectory
in the To field. - Add the expression
Environment.CurrentDirectory
in the Values field.
- Add the variable
-
Place another Assign activity below the previous one.
- Add the variable
PagePath
in the To field. - Add the expression
Path.Combine(CurrentDirectory,"DemoPage","Table.html")
in the Values field. -
This is how your Init PagePath sequence should look:
- Add the variable
- Return to the Main screen.
-
Drag an Open Browser activity and place it below the Init PagePath sequence.
- Add the variable
PagePath
in the Url field.
- Add the variable
-
Select the Do container of the Open Browser activity and create the following variables:
Variable Name
Variable Type
Default value
Type1Err
Int32
0
Type2Err
Int32
0
- Drag a Maximize Window activity inside the Do container.
-
Place a Click activity under the Maximize Window activity.
-
Inside the activity, click the Indicate element inside browser option. Select the Allow blocked content button like in the following gif:
- In the Properties
panel, add the value
True
in the ContinueOnError field. - Select the check box for the SimulateClick option. By doing do, the click uses the technology of the target application, this being the fastest method, that is also working in the background. If neither this option, nor the SelectWindowsMessages option are selected, then the click is using the hardware method, which is the slowest and cannot run in the background.
-
-
Drag a Find Image Matches activity below the Click activity.
-
Inside the activity, click the Indicate screenshot inside browser option. Select the desired button like in the following gif:
- In the Properties
panel, select the
COMPLETE
option from the WaitForReady drop-down list. - Add the variable
XMatches

Place a Log Message activity below the Find Image Matches activity.
- Add the expression
"Total number of errors: "+XMatches.Count.ToString
in the Message field.
- Add the expression
-
Drag a For Each activity under the Log Message activity.
- Add the value
element
in the ForEach field and the variableXMatches
in the Values field.
- Add the value
-
Drag a Hover activity inside the Body container of the For Each activity.
- In the Properties
panel, add the value
element
in the Element field. - Select the
COMPLETE
option from the WaitForReady drop-down list.
- In the Properties

. -
Place a Find Image activity inside the Trigger container.
-
Inside the activity, click the Indicate element inside browser option. Select the desired button like in the following gif:
-
-
Place an Assign activity inside the Action field.
- Add the variable
Type1Err
in the To field. - Add the expression
Type1Err+1
in the Value field.
- Add the variable
- Drag another Pick Branch
activity inside the Pick activity, place it beside the previously added one
and name it
PickBranch Type2
. -
Place a Find Image activity inside the Trigger container.

-
-
Place an Assign activity inside the Action field.
- Add the variable
