Step 1-To record address click on type step

Step 2- Select the address and Click on confirm

So to record the address selector here, we can record a type step. And then I'm going to type Sacramento and then I'll confirm this. Then what we want to do, it's a little odd with, uh, with this map selector, specifically how we need to handle this. So what we're going to want to do is because that dropdown is no longer showing and we can't record a click step of inside and actually selecting the address, we're going to want to click the play icon to run that step, which is then going to show it in the browser here.

Next, we can add a click step where we're going to select the first item in this list. I clicked into the browser once so that it focused, and now you can see that my mouse is hovering over things and everything is highlighted green. Now this Google pop up is an interesting case that we're going to work on some additional things for because I hadn't experienced this yet.

What we want to do is instead of actually clicking on our mouse, we need to send a click with our keyboard. So all we need to do is hover over what we want to select, which is going to be this first item in the list. And then on my keyboard, I'm going to hit control and L at the same time. If you're on Mac, it's still going to be control plus L.

So if I do that, we'll see that that sent the click step and we now found that element. When I confirm that step, it'll allow us to then proceed and retest what we did. You'll notice right now it isn't selected. And again, this is just kind of the pain with recording these types of steps. If we run both of these steps, we'll see that that works properly.

So I play this and then I play this like the automation will, and then that selects that correctly. So that's the workaround for handling those address selectors. Uh, let me know if you have any other issues trying to record those types of steps.
