I'm working in Citrix environment and using Windows XP 2008 server.
We automated one real time portal.
While spying elements in Website BOT is taking more than 15 minutes to spy one element.
The flow was not that much big, Bot has to be completed its execution within 5 minutes but due to PORTAL slowness BOT is taking upto 1 hour for one time execution..
(At the end due to slowness BOT is throwing time out exception)
We are highly fraustated with this issue..
It would be very appreciated if someone gives solution to our problem..

Hi Arun,

Please let us know which of the spying modes do you use in the automation. I believe I might have encountered such an issue while trying to use HTML Paths with wildcards and it worked horribly in Blue Prism so I needed to change the conception.
From my experience with web applications, I would strongly suggest using wait stages with multiple (2 most likely) conditions, starting with the HTML spy mode (including the full path to the element on a website and some other identifiers), because it's fast but may be unstable AND another condition(s) that are not as fast but are stable and reliable.

Kind regards
