Error handling
Parameter Name | Description |
Throw error & stop | When an error occurs, the action will trigger an error and stop the execution of the entire app. |
Retry command | If an error occurs, the action will retry the command in an attempt to resolve the issue and continue the process. |
Ignore error & continue | When an error occurs, the action will be ignored, and the workflow will continue without interruption. |
Variables produced
This action doesn't produce any variables.
Using Variables in Conditions
You can use variables in parameter fields where the {x} icon appears. This allows you to dynamically set window titles or pass window objects obtained from previous steps in your workflow. Ensure that the variable type matches the expected parameter type for proper execution.
Notes
The "Window object" option requires a window object variable obtained from previous commands like "Get window" or similar actions.
When using "Title or class" option, you can use regular expressions for more flexible matching by checking the "Use RegEx" option.
If the specified window cannot be found or accessed, an error will occur unless handled by the error handling settings.
Multiple windows with the same title may cause unpredictable behavior; be as specific as possible when identifying windows.
