Wait Field Text

UiPath.Terminal.Activities.TerminalWaitFieldText

Waits for a specified amount of time for a string to appear in a form field.

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.
• LabeledBy - The label that appears before the field to be searched for.

Input

• MatchCase - Specifies if the text matching should be case sensitive. Only boolean values (True, False) are supported.
• Text - The string to be waited for.

Misc

• Private - If selected, the values of variables and arguments are no longer logged at Verbose level.

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).
