Tick Checkbox

In this section, we will guide you on how to use the Tick Checkbox block.

Use Cases

RPA (Robotic Process Automation) excels at automating repetitive tasks, and ticking checkboxes—a common form of user interaction—is widely used in RPA. Although this block is designed for ticking checkboxes, it also works with radio button groups.

Example

Here is a simple example of selecting a role.

How It Works

Here’s the HTML code for the example above:

<fieldset>
  <legend>Choose your role:</legend>

  <div>
    <input type="checkbox" id="student" name="student" />
    <label for="student">Student</label>
  </div>

  <div>
    <input type="checkbox" id="teacher" name="teacher" />
    <label for="teacher">Teacher</label>
  </div>
</fieldset>

This block is simple to use; you only need to set the target element to tell Tapicker which checkbox to tick.

  • Target Element: Typically, this is an input element of type checkbox or radio.
  • Checked: Sets the tick status.

Example

If you want to select Student, set it up as follows:

  • Target Element: input#student
  • Checked: on

FAQ

Why am I unable to tick the checkbox?

This could be due to the following reasons:

  1. The target element must be an input element of type checkbox or radio.
  2. The target is dynamically loaded; add a delay to ensure it appears on the page before ticking.
  3. It might be a checkbox component provided by a third-party UI library.

How can I tick a third-party checkbox component?

If this block cannot tick your checkbox, try using the Click Element block to click it.
