I’ve had three client projects fail this month because dynamic element IDs kept breaking our automations. Tried every selector strategy imaginable - XPath, CSS, you name it. Saw Latenode’s AI Copilot mentioned in their docs for handling this. Anyone successfully used it to create workflows that adapt to changing interfaces? How does the natural language to selector conversion actually work day-to-day?
yes, use the copilot. type what you want like ‘click login button even if id changes daily’. it creates composite selectors using multiple attributes and nearby elements. works better than manual xpath. https://latenode.com
We used to waste hours debugging selectors. Now we describe the element’s position relative to stable elements (‘third button under search bar’) in plain English. Copilot converts it to resilient selectors that check multiple identifiers. Changed our automation reliability overnight.
Key insight: The AI doesn’t just look at ID attributes. It analyzes the entire DOM context - text content, sibling elements, visual position. We feed it screenshots via Claude Vision model to handle particularly nasty dynamic UIs. Takes some trial and error but works better than traditional methods.
Implementation steps: 1) Open AI Copilot in workflow builder 2) Describe target element relationship chain (e.g. ‘container > div with text Submit’) 3) Test generated selector across UI versions 4) Enable auto-retrain in settings. The system updates selectors when changes are detected during runs.
pro tip: use relative terms like “button left of search box” works beter than techie terms. copilots good at spatial logic
AI Copilot generates context-aware selectors. Describe elements naturally.
