Advanced functions Configuration

This feature is considered one of the available options in the Tasks. However, as this feature has lots of capabilities and various ways to use, we dedicated a whole new article for this.

URL Condition​

This is the condition that's necessary to be met for triggering the configured task and function. You should select either "CONTAINS" or "EQUALS" option for the page you want to trigger the click on. URL conditions

note

This is not the link or address you want the bot to click on it. This is the page address that you want the desired action to happen. So, if you want to click on about us button or link in your main webpage, you should write your webpage address.

caution

If you select EQUALS, the bot will be sensitive on each single character of the URL and missing even a slash can cause the bot skip the functions. We would recommend you to use CONTAINS as much as possible

Actions​

There are few options available for configuring the actions.

HTML element actions

Click​

You can select any HTML element to make the bot click on. The element can be included inside an Iframe as well.

Type​

You can select any HTML element to make the bot type a value in. The element can be included inside an Iframe as well.

note

You can use the spintax syntax for text input. The format will be like

{text 1|text2|text3}

By this format, the bot will rotate and select a random text between those. This is an advanced example:

This is {a sample|an example|a documentation} and I {love|like} it

One of the possible outputs for this will be:

This is a sample and I like it.

https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_elements.asp

In this simple HTML element form, you'll need to select the HTML tag and the attribute of it that you want to target with.

tip

You need to try to use an attribute which is exclusively used in the desired element. There can be lots of other elements with your selected attribute and this will cause the bot to click on wrong element.

tip

Elements on some websites like Google or Facebook have dynamic values for their attributes. To accurately target these elements, it is essential to identify a specific attribute or recurring value.

We would recommend you to refresh the webpages several times to make sure the values or attributes don't change.

If your element is included in an iframe (this happens usually in consent or ad forms), you need to enable "It's included in Iframe" option then select the Iframe element. It's the same selector used for other elements.

Advance Element Selection​

If you need more control on the HTML element and you want the bot to customize the selectors or provide the item id, you can click on "Advance settings" in the element selection part and you'll see a section like this:

Delay Time​

You can specify a delay time that you want the bot to wait before executing the provided functions. This delay time will work when the conditions have been met. For instance, if you want the bot to click on "about us" button after 20 seconds of going to "dalga.dev", you can enter the delay time as 20-20 seconds here.
