iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

A Macro starts 8 Macros - how does that work?

Post by i_macro_user » Sat Jun 13, 2015 4:03 pm

Hello friends of the automation,

I guess that will be easy for you to answer the question. I do not know under what keyword I could find the answer in the forum.

I have 8 iMacros called test01.iim, test02.iim ... test08.iim.

Now I want to run with a IMACRO test00.iim all 8 Marcors - one by one - not parallel.

How does it work?

Many Greetings

Ein Macro startet 8 Macros - wie geht das?

Hallo Freunde der Automatisierung,

ich schätze, das wird für Euch leicht sein, die Frage zu beantworten. Ich wüßte nicht, unter welchem Suchbegriff ich im Forum die Antwort finden könnte.

Ich habe 8 iMacros namens test01.iim, test02.iim ... test08.iim.

Nun möchte ich mit einem iMacro test00.iim alle 8 Marcors ausführen.

Wie geht das?

Viele Grüße

Code: Select all

iMacros 10, Windows 8 / 64, I use the iMacros Browser (not MSIE) - sometimes Firefox - every time the last version - 2014-12-10
That's exactly what the 'Self-Test.js' Demo-Macro is doing... :idea:
- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial').
- FCI not mentioned: I don't even read the Qt...! (or only to catch Spam!)
- Script & URL help a lot for more "educated" Help...

Hallo chivracq,

thanks a lot. Self-Test.js is working.

I have one more question in this direction:

iimPlay("url_1.iim")
iimPlay("url_2.iim")
iimPlay("url_3.iim")

I don't understand "iimPlay".

http://wiki.imacros.net/Command_Reference
Scripting Interface Command Overview

How I can use "iimPlay" in Firefox, if I have iMacros 10 Enterprise?

How can I open the "Scripting Interface"?

I don't understand "Scripting Interface".

What is the different between "Scripting Interface" and "JavaScript"?

Best regards

I don't really know to be honest, as I've never used the iMacros Browser, only the Add-on for all 3 Browsers, mostly for FF...

All I know is that you can use 'iimPlay()' in FF in some .js Script like 'Self-Test.js'...

This mean:

iimPlay() = use in JavaScript - Script?

What is the different beetween

macrolist.push("Demo-Firefox/FillForm.iim")

and

iimPlay("Demo-Firefox/FillForm.iim")

I hope, here can write a user whith know iimplay :-)
