Hello and Good day.

I am now using the GUI Spy for getting the elements/xpath of the fields. I am executing the workflows successfully. However, how do you handle forms that are displayed in a Modal Format?

I have been trying to test it, but it seems GUI Spy won’t work on it. I am receiving this error “Unable to find the element having X-Path [//\*[@id=“email”]] in expected time” when I am trying to set value in a modal-view form.

I’d appreciate any ideas on how I solve this.

Hello @fdc_jpg,
