How to capture otp from android mobile during registration/login in a app

@Chris_Trevarthen Hi Chris! Any updates on the above issue? Thanks in Advance.

Hi @janani0515 , I’m not sure if you’ll be able to capture the notification as it pops up, but if you add the line Mobile.openNotifications() to your test, it should pull down the Notifications drawer. From there, you’ll need to find the notification object that you want to grab the OTP from (this …

@Chris_Trevarthen Hi Chris,Thanks for the detailed insight.I did the above by creating an object with Xpath value, but when Katalon executes the following step, String otp = Mobile.getText(notification, 10) it keeps loading and would not give me any status so I am unable to find out what is the e…

Hi @janani0515 , The resource-id isn’t strictly necessary, but it helps to narrow down exactly which element that Appium should look for. Since there are so many LinearLayout or TextView objects on a given screen, it’s unlikely that just putting the classes will return the element you want. To try …

@Chris_Trevarthen Thank alot for the explanation. I have attached screenshot for your reference. The following are the captured elements. 1.Frame Layout [FL] 2.Linear Layout [LL] 3.Text View [TV] The Xpaths of the captured elements are as follows: 1.Frame Layout: //hierarchy/android.wid…

So if you change the xpath for your OTP/Capture element to: //*[@class = 'android.widget.TextView' and contains(@text, 'gin OTP')] Where gin OTP is that part of the noti…

@Chris_Trevarthen Thank You. I tried but still no luck. One doubt that arises is every time my otp gets generated , the number of the OTP changes. If I do not mention that number, will the Katalon identify it? Sample xpath of the otp that was captured earlier, //*[@class = ‘android.widget.TextVie…

Hi @janani0515 Since your OTP will change, I recommend trying the contains() function of path, so based on your manually created object, it could be: //*[@class = ‘android.widget.TextView’ and contains(@text, '…gin OTP : ') and @resource-id = ‘android:id/text’] Once you get the text of the object…

Hi @Chris_Trevarthen , Finally my manually created object has been detected successfully but when I try to set the text to the required field, it throws error saying ‘object is null’. [First]

@Chris_Trevarthen
I have attached the Log Viewer of the executed test case. The newly created object does not get identified to capture otp.

Kindly help out!

Thanks in advance.
