Set drop-down list value in window Error: Failed to perform the requested operation on the drop down list (error while accessing the drop down list)

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I've been trying to fill a drop-down list with a data from excel. I am sure that the data I'm passing is correct. Here's the screenshot of the flow. the one highlighted in green works fine and they have the same configuration with the one with the error. I don't know what seems to be the problem because it ran smoothly a couple of days ago and suddenly its not.

Location

Subflow: Main, Action: Set drop-down list value in window

Error Message

Hi @Rifat00700 and @PKS_09 

It has been quite a long time on the original post, not sure if @Anonymous was able to resolve it or not.

You might want to open separate posts with screenshots of what each of you are individually facing.

I'm sure you would get help on your posts.

Don't add the UI element manually. Try using the recorder to capture the combo box.
