Hey guys,

I have a button that when clicked it generates a confirmation alert, but Katalon Studio simply does not detect this alert I have always used all the functions you can imagine. In this attached case, it accepts waiting for the alert, but when you have to confirm it, it doesn’t work

Hi,

Can you please share your code if possible? As well, do you receive any warning / error the sys yells?

Hi @vinicius.silva.datam, Did you wait for the alert?

```auto
WebUI.waitForAlert(5)
WebUI.acceptAlert()

```
