Improved the workflow execution engine
This is one of the most important upgrades in this release! We've made significant improvements to the execution engine to make workflows more stable, responsive, and easier to debug:
- Handled various edge cases to improve execution stability
- Added clearer error messages to logs for easier debugging
- Improved responsiveness to control signals during long-running tasks
- Added fallback strategies for hidden pages to prevent workflows from getting stuck
Improved the editor experience
This is another major upgrade in this release! We've refined the editor to make building and managing workflows smoother and more intuitive:
- Shows the currently connected tab
- Supports selecting multiple Blocks at once
- Added more comprehensive keyboard shortcuts
- Displays more contextual help and guidance
Added simulated cursor movement
Tapicker can now simulate moving the cursor to a target element before performing an interaction, such as clicking an element or pressing a button.
To enable it:
- In
Scriptmode, enableSimulate human behavior - In
Debuggermode, it is enabled by default
Added support for clearing variables
In some workflows, you may need to clear a variable first, use Wait Until to wait for it to be assigned a new value, and then continue with the next operation.
To clear a variable, set its data source to Dynamic and use {{undefined}} or {{null}} as the value.
Improved rendering for different data types
We've improved how different data types are rendered throughout the editor, making values easier to read and distinguish at a glance.
Condition now supports Else
Condition now supports an Else branch, making it easier to define alternative paths when a condition isn't met.
Select Option now supports multiple selections
Select Option can now select multiple options at once, adding support for multi-select elements.
Fixed an issue where Finder couldn't select elements in Pinterest modals
Fixed an issue on Pinterest where Finder could fail to select elements inside modal dialogs.
Finder can now correctly detect and select these elements without being blocked by the modal's page structure.
Fixed Inspector display issues in iframes
Fixed an issue where moving the cursor back and forth between the main page and one or more iframes could cause Inspector states to interfere with each other, resulting in incorrect display behavior.
