Get Field

UiPath.Terminal.Activities.TerminalGetField

Gets the text from a specified form field and stores it into a string variable. The form field is designated by using selectors.

Note: This activity fails if the VT family of terminals is being used, either with the Direct Connection provider or with a provider using a 3rd party terminal emulator, like IBM EHLLAPI. This happens because the VT family of terminals does not support fields.

Properties

Common

DisplayName - The display name of the activity.

Field

FollowedBy - The label that appears after the field to be searched for.
Index - If there are multiple fields with the same labels, select an identifier greater than 0 that describes the order of the label to be searched for.

Options

DelayMS - Delay time (in milliseconds) after executing the activity. The default amount of time is 300 milliseconds.
TimeoutMS - Specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait for the activity to run before an error is thrown. The default value is 30000 milliseconds (30 seconds).
WaitType - Before performing the actions, wait for the target to become ready. The following options are available:
- None - Does not wait for the terminal keyboard to be enabled.
- Ready / Complete - Waits for the terminal keyboard to be enabled.
Note: The Ready and Complete WaitType options have the same function, since the wait type is related to the status of the terminal keyboard (which has only two states: enabled or inhibited).
