This isn't possible in the same way you cannot send 'Home' or 'Page Up/Down' keys. What are you trying to accomplish?

I have a search field where I enter a value and search for but there is no search button. I need to enter the value and press enter. Is this not possible then?

WebApp No there is no way to press Enter. If you are searching for something then maybe you can think of a creative way to get exactly where you need to be (i.e. if you are searching for a username so you can click to go to their details then maybe you can navigate directly to the user’s details instead.)

Hey Tim, First of all, thank you very much to have written such a detailed article. Very Helpful ! I've tried on my side several things, but always end up with the same error. The plugin cannot do the Validation part of the plugin during a verify.

When running manually (test mode with the user.ini file) everything works perfectly, but when running through the CPM I end up with the error that the CPM cannot find the Validation tag I've put (which is a simple ID to find). It's not a matter of window sizing, 'cause when I run manually and try to make the window smaller, the tag is still there (login button before as well). I'm really stuck. I've tried on two different env. which are on 2 different version of the CPM, but aren't working through CPM but working manually.

I would love your thoughts about that.

Cheers, Valentin

It would be tough to troubleshoot without seeing the site and it's DOM but its very strange that it works during manual testing. What error are you getting exactly?

It's probably worth jumping in the community Discord for some help troubleshooting: discord.gg/HGTNU7x6cF

Tim Schindler So the problem was that the plugin, through the CPM engine wasn't able to find the Validation tag. But we finally found the solution, before the Validation we added a Failure command and then, like magic, everything worked like a charm !

Hi Tim!

Thank you for this series of articles related to creating CPM Plug-ins using the target's REST APIs to rotate passwords!

Currently working with a customer wanting to do this.

Will be reading these many times to make sure I've got the concept down and can get these working for the customer.
