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

Hi,

recording the macro will result in in something like this:

Code: Select all

VERSION BUILD=5200814     
TAB T=1     
TAB CLOSEALLOTHERS     
URL GOTO=http://elf.meterpower.co.uk/login.asp       
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEXT FORM=NAME:form1 ATTR=NAME:groupid CONTENT=group 
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:TEXT FORM=NAME:form1 ATTR=NAME:userid CONTENT=id 
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:PASSWORD FORM=NAME:form1 ATTR=NAME:password CONTENT=C05ED68F887C75C45F21031B42378B9291BD38981532E9970CA664B8B710A9F0 
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:SUBMIT FORM=NAME:form1 ATTR=NAME:Enter&&VALUE:Enter  
'Comment: New page loaded    
If you always use the same username/id/password, starting the macro is all you need.

For scripting, http://iopus.com/imacros/support/index.htm#tutorials may be of interest.

This long string is the password, encrypted with 265 bit AES (cf. http://www.iopus.com/imacros/help/security.htm). If you record a login session, iMacros stores your password in this encrypted way in the macro. To get yours, simply record a login session and have a look at the recorded macro.

Using your login data (group, id, and your encrypted password) in the script above should result in a successful login (including using the "Enter" button with the last TAG command).
