Cannot run protractor scripts using code generated by Appium for IOS it says that findelement is not a function

问题

I want to automate my tests for an Angular JS site using Ipad Air simulator, appium and protractor but the problem that i'm not able to run correctly the script.

This is my config file

​exports.config = {
  allScriptsTimeout: 600000,
  seleniumAddress: 'http://0.0.0.0:4723/wd/hub',

  specs: [
    'testsuite/test3.js'
  ],

  capabilities: {
    browserName: 'safari',
   'appium-version': '1.4.13',
    platformName: 'iOS',
    platformVersion: '9.3',
    deviceName: 'iPad Air'
},

  chromeOnly: false,

  baseUrl: 'http://10.0.22.82:4180/jws/fetablet_dev_T1000',

  frameworks:[
    'mocha',
    'chai'
  ],

mochaOpts: { 

    defaultTimeoutInterval:1000000
}         
};   

My test3.js file contain :

"use strict";
var wd = require("wd");
var chai = require("chai");
var chaiAsPromised = require("chai-as-promised");

chai.use(chaiAsPromised);

var expect = chai.expect;

chai.should();
chaiAsPromised.transferPromiseness = wd.transferPromiseness;

describe('my app', function() {

it('should make the login test',function()  {

var desired = {
browserName: 'safari',
platformName:'iOS',
name:"This is an example for login test"
}

browser.get("0.22.82:4180/jws/fetablet_dev_T1000");


 browser.driver.findelement(by.xpath("//UIAApplication[1]/UIAWindow[2]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAWebView[1]/UIATextField[1]")).sendKeys("RET02");


});

});

While running protractor.config.js i have the following error and my test is failed, how can i identify elements?

You might probably want to change this for sure :

browser.driver.findelement(by.xpath("//UIAApplication[1]/UIAWindow[2]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAWebView[1]/UIATextField[1]")).sendKeys("RET02");

to

browser.driver.findElement(by.xpath("//UIAApplication[1]/UIAWindow[2]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAScrollView[1]/UIAWebView[1]/UIATextField[1]")).sendKeys("RET02");

                   ^ //E instead of e
