This wraps up the entire configuration and adjustments for the Find Children activity.In our case, we are using the first See Phone’s Button as the filter and by selecting Find_DESCENDANTS, we are asking the activity to look for descendants of the same selector.In the Properties panel, we can also adjust the Scope of the Find Children activity.Using these two as filters will enable Find Children activity to identify all the See Phone buttons on that page.Moreover, the entire class is present inside the tag “ a”. The same can be verified by inspecting the other buttons to understand the repeating element, which is inevitably the element of interest.The information highlights that the button is stored inside the class = “btn btn-md btn-primary btn-icon btn-block”.Upon pointing to the See Phone Button, the Inspect element panel shows the following information.Click on this button or use the shortcut Ctrl + Shift + c, which will allow you to point to an element to be inspected.This will open up the Inspect element panel in Chrome.

Clicking on Filter from Properties Panel opens the Expression Editor which contains the elements that the user requires to find as many times it appears on the same webpage.The final output will save into an IEnumUiElement variable name telephone. For the activity to perform desirable, it is vital to put the right Filter and Selector. The image above shows the Properties Panel of Find Children activity.But to use it efficiently, the user requires to deeply analysis the element and put the right Filter and Selector.

This activity will work for as many buttons that appear on the webpage.Find Children activity can be used to perform 20 clicks without the need of selecting each button separately. However, creating automation with 20 Click automation activity and pointing them to each respective button is troublesome.
