Interaction

Select Option block

Selects an option from a standard HTML dropdown.

Purpose

Use Select Option for native select elements such as country, category, sort order, or page-size dropdowns.

How it works

  • Finds the select element by selector.
  • Attempts to choose an option by configured value or visible text.
  • Continues to the next block after the selection action.

Configuration fields

FieldRequiredDefaultDescription
SelectorYes-CSS selector or XPath for the select element.
Option ValueNo-The option value attribute, for example US.
Option TextNo-The visible option label, for example United States.

Usage notes

  • This block is intended for native select tags, not custom React dropdown menus.
  • For custom dropdowns, use Click blocks to open the menu and click the option.
  • Add a wait after selecting when the page reloads or filters results.

Caveats

  • Current app code exposes Option Value and Option Text in the UI. If selection fails, use Click-based dropdown automation until the command parameter mapping is updated.
