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

Can't get macro to go through:

Post by gepres » Wed Dec 05, 2018 9:12 pm

VERSION BUILD=12.5.503.8802


<a href="#" data-linkinfo="{ "menuId": "rt",
"option": "viewReturn",
"accountSelectId": "#rtAccounts"}" title>

When i have my macro click on the link on a page (the link is the script above), it takes me to a page that notifies me that I cannot enter because I cannot access the link directly (it's a website where you have to log in and enter other information to get data). Is there a way to get through to the link? The "#" is the link and when I click on it, it says the same thing "cannot access the link directly".

Sorry if the explanation is not the best, I am new to iMacro.

Thanks

I don't really understand your Explanations indeed, with no (iMacros) Script posted, no URL... (What you've posted is an Excerpt of the Source Code, not a Script...)
Give more Info, I don't understand your Pb... :oops:
But if a Site is designed that you have to provide some Login&Password when clicking manually on some Link, that will be the same with iMacros...

(And your Thread has nothing to do with 'Data Extraction' I would think and will probably get moved to the 'General' Sub-Forum...)

Correct Spelling is "iMacros" btw... :wink:
- (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...
