Start macro by clicking the chrome button

Post by thiagunix » Thu Dec 09, 2021 4:21 pm

Hi guys,

I have a website with some information that I need to collect and enter into a desktop software installed on the user's machine.

What am I trying to do:
I click a button on the website and it runs the macro collecting the data from my website and filling in the data collected in the desktop software.

What I'm not able to start the execution of through a button in chrome.

Has anyone done something like that?

Thanks

The closest I can think of it in the trigger tab, >Window Trigger, >Window Opened just to get the script started, and then to intelligently make the script wait until you're ready. Or do as I do, and use a programmable mouse with multiple programmable buttons, and assign those buttons to Macro Scheduler HotKeys. I have 12 buttons assigned to 12 Macros, right next to my right thumb. Then your scripts are always only a mouseclick away.
Yes, we have a Custom Scripting Service. Message me or go here
