Not able to take screenshot of alert box in Katalon.

I know that even selenium doesn’t support it. But there are work around to achieve it … but those screenshots wouldn’t be part of the Report.

Please suggest.

You could test for the alert box with WebUI.waitForAlert(5)
You could get the text of the alert with WebUI.getAlertText()
If you put that in an IF statement, you could take a screenshot once the alert is detected.

elementPresent=WebUI.waitForAlert(5)
if (elementPresent==true) {
alertText = WebUI.getAlertText()
WebUI.takeScreenshot()}

Thanks for your reply Peter. But it doesn’t work. I am getting the below error.
