Write Clipboard
Use Write Clipboard to copy a piece of text to the clipboard. This
will replace the content s of the clipboard with the text. This is
similar to the copy function, <Ctrl>+<C>, used in a text editor to copy
a selected piece of text, but in this case a value from the Workflow
is used for the clipboard instead of selected text. You can either enter
the text used by Write Clipboard yourself, or use the value of a
variable.
Properties
Write Clipboard has no special properties.
Other Properties that are the same in all Action Steps are described in the section on Common Properties.
Inbound Variables
Clipboard Text Enter the text that should be copied to the clipboard when this Action Step is executed. You can also transfer the content of a Workflow variable to the clipboard. To do so, click on the pin and select one of the available variables.
Outbound Variables
Write Clipboard The Write Clipboard.ClipboardText variable provides the text to be written to the clipboard.
Example
Write Clipboard can be useful in transactions and robotic applications when it is necessary to enter text quickly. This might be necessary, for example, when an article description or a password has to be entered automatically into a field. Another use for this function might be to transfer data (text) from application 'A' to GUI 'B'.
