Is there a mouse click in workflow?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys is there a mouse click in the workflow when launch the app, I have jnlp which i open in the workflow but when it starts it requires to click 'Continue' button. Can i implement that click via workflow, also after that it requires to type a password, can I remember a password in workflow and insert it in the app menu ad then hit 'Enter'?

I am attaching 2 screenshots to show what i am trying to achieve.

 

 

 

Thank you.

There is no workflow node to click, but you can do it via AppleScript. That’s a Java app, though, so you’re likely wasting your time. I doubt you can describe the button via Accessibility, and doing it via coordinates is asking for trouble. However, you might be able to fake it via keyboard presses. Check BugNot for an example of a workflow that uses keypresses to fill forms (check top Run Script).

 

But first go into System Preferences → Keyboard → Shortcuts, and on the bottom select All Controls. Now when you open that Security Warning screen, if you press ⇥ do you see a blue outline going from Cancel to Continue? Like this:

If you don’t, then the solution likely stops here.
