Use Click Element to press a button, follow a link, toggle a checkbox, or select a tab on the page. You pick the element. The action can be Click, Hover, Double-click, or Right-click. Hover moves Chrome’s page pointer onto the picked element and can open CSS-only dropdowns. It does not click or move your operating-system pointer. Click, Double-click, and Hover use Chrome’s debugger, so Chrome displays a debugging notice while attached. These actions do not activate tabs or focus or restore windows. Double-click delivers two clicks followed by the browser’s double-click event. Right-click keeps its existing behavior.
How to add it
Add Step → Click Element. Choose the action. Pick on page writes the selector. The eye button highlights the match on the tab.
If the selector matches many nodes, you can target a specific occurrence.
Use it inside For Each Link when each opened URL needs the same click, or on a single page after Refresh Page or Go To Web Page. Hover a parent, then click a revealed item.
Limits and related controls
Click and Double-click need a visible, unobstructed, enabled element. Missing elements wait up to six seconds; a failed interaction pauses the workflow at that step. Correct the target, then Resume. Completed steps are preserved; if input may already have arrived, the error explains that retrying may repeat it.
Links and form controls explicitly configured to open another tab or window are rejected. Same-tab navigation is supported. Website scripts can still open windows in response to a click. Frame and shadow-root targets are not supported.
Choose Go To Web Page for a saved URL, For Each Link for a list of URLs, or Type Text to fill an input. To change what appears in a screenshot, use Scroll Page or Hide Element. Press Key sends a key event without clicking.
