Example: Selecting an Item from a Combo Box (dropdown) Using Index

In this example, we explain how to select an option from a combo box (dropdown) using its index position.

• Action: Select Combo Value by Index

• Input Value: 2

  • The first argument (2) specifies the index position of the option selected from the combo box or dropdown.

• Output Value: {Status}

  • The execution result is stored in the {Status} dynamic variable with the following possible values:

    • True: If the option at the specified index is successfully selected from the combo box.

    • False: If the combo box is not found or the index value is out of range.

• Logical Explanation: The Select Combo Value by Index action takes the value from the Input Value column (2). This action identifies the combo box (dropdown) and selects the option available at index position 2. After successful selection, the action stores True in the {Status} variable.
