Actual exam question for UiPath's UiPath-ARDv1 exam
Question #: 116
Topic #: 9
[All UiPath-ARDv1 Questions]

What is the use of attribute when working with selectors?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Introducing Non-Greedy search in your selectors instructs it to search through all the active windows or browser instances that match the top-level tags of your selector, and not just the window instances in focus. Non-Greedy search makes use of theidx()attribute, which needs to be included in the top-level tag, as follows:

<idx='*'>searches through all active window instances for the element matching the top-level tag attributes.

Please note that the<idx='1'>option only searches through window instances in focus.

Haha, B) is a bit of a stretch. Searching through all window instances? That's overkill for a simple selector.

A) is just wrong. The [attribute] selector is a fundamental part of CSS and should be used when appropriate.

C) is the correct answer. The [attribute] selector is used to select elements with a specific attribute value.

I thought the * attribute was related to dynamic selectors, but I might be mixing it up with another concept.

Ah, I see now - the [attribute] selector is for working with optional attributes. That makes sense, thanks for the clarification. I'll keep that in mind for the exam.

Hmm, the [attribute] selector could be handy for searching across multiple window instances, but I'm not sure if that's the primary use case. I'll have to think through the different scenarios.
