Issue

RPA LE attempts to send a collection of repeating characters when performing a Send Data action. For example, when attempting to send the word Test, RPA LE instead sends the sequence TTTTT… This is due to the keyboard speed at which the Send Value action is executed. When the Keyboard Speed is set to Auto, RPA LE will verify the data being sent in real-time; if there is an interruption while sending, RPA LE will clear the field and attempt to send the data again. Some fields may have structures in which RPA LE cannot verify the data being sent; For example, an SSN or Date field that auto-populates certain characters (-,/). In these cases, Auto speed should not be used.

 

Resolution

Change the Keyboard Speed to something other than Auto. As the next best alternative, we recommend Slow or Very Slow.
