Ways to click something on a website

[hennenzac]

I have read through quite a few forums on ways to select something, mainly mouse click, on a website running on chrome.  I am working with Microsoft dynamics 365.  Which for the client side it's just a website running on chrome.  I want to select a menu in this website.  I know mouse click is the last resort, and I tried a mouse click relative to the window.

Here are the list of alternatives I know:

- pixel search , if unique color

- image search, never used before

- tabbing and arrow keys , not reliable in my situation since the user can show/hide the ribbon which changes the number of tabs.

Anything else I'm missing?

the two main ones suitable for this job are

1. UI Automation UDFs
2. WebDriver UDF

both are difficult for a beginner, but worth the effort because they are basic elements (especially for the Internet)

Both those UDFs look quite deep, like you said.  I'll have to really work through learning these.  Thank you.

As its microsoft dynamics I assume you can also use MS powerapps.
