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

Javascript support

Post by abxy01 » Tue Aug 07, 2018 11:06 am

Hello
1. In new version 10 of iMacros for Firefox Quantum there is no support of .js scripts. What IPSwitch products can play javascript-files, wrote for old Firefox iMacros extension?
2. I need also support of URL GOTO command for a privileged URL such as javascript:, file:, data:, and about: and commands and functionality that were previously supported iMacros for Firefox that currently are not:EVENT, EVENTS, ONDIALOG, CLICK, etc.

Best Regards,
Sergei K.

See https://wiki.imacros.net/iMacros_for_Firefox
The built-in Javascript scripting interface is no longer available. Please use the iMacros Scripting Interface (API) included with some of the iMacros paid editions. This API allows you to control Chrome and Firefox from external scripts and programs (C++, C#, Javascript, Python, Perl, etc.)
The imacros://run/ URI is no longer supported for running macros from the command line, however, a new method is described here.

Few commands are impossible in the new api since Quantum. Other features are not implemented in the newest addon (with or without workarounds)
Check iMacros 10 Beta - Sign Up and Provide Feedback Here!

Other workaround is Pale Moon, Waterfox or other Firefox based browser with old iMacros version (e.g. 8.9.7).
