Unable to Invoke Inserted Javascript Fragment

Question

I am attempting to insert a Javascript fragment into a webpage and then invoke it using blue prism. The purpose of this is to analyse what elements are returned from a searc

Answer 1

To invoke function by action "Invoke Javascript function", in Arguments field you should put arguments in JSON syntax. If there is no argument you put "[{}]".

On the above Marek's example the function should look:

function sayHello(name)
{
    alert("Hello " + name.name + "!");
}

and arguments: "[{'name':'world'}]".

Answer 2

I was actually never able to get Invoke Function working reliably with parameters, I always use Insert Fragment for everything, invoking included.

If you insert this function as a fragment...

function sayHello(name)
{
    alert("Hello " + name + "!");
}

...to invoke it you just insert this as another fragment:

sayHello("World");

Tadaa!

As a side note, I am not sure which element in Application Modeler you are using for fragment insertion, but it seems like you are using the root (application) node. I had better experience with inserting the fragment to a dedicated HTML BODY element, for some reason the performance is much greater.
