'Selecting value in drop down list in Chrome recorder
I am trying to record a web workflow using the Chrome inbuilt recorder. When selecting a value from a drop down list, the following code is generated.
"type": "click",
"selectors": [
[
"aria/ Current Order - $1,023.34 total value"
],
[
"#fromOrder-menu-342-1"
]
],
The issue is that the total order value is included in the name of the drop-down list item, and this will never be the same for two different orders.
How can I change the selector (e.g. using wildcards, or just check for "starts with") to select the relevant value from the drop-down list (regardless of the ending text of the drop down list value description)?

You could make use of Attribute selectors by using [attr^=value]
to grab an element based on the value it "starts with".
Assuming your desired element has an aria-label
this works:
[aria-label^="? Current Order - "]
