Set Element Radio Button

The Set Element Radio Button block is used to select a value from a group of radio buttons within a Salesforce application. These elements are typically used when the user must choose a single option from a predefined list, for example, selecting a contact method, status, or category.

This block is automatically generated when the user selects a radio button during recording with the Salesforce Fusion Recorder.

Note: This block works only in browser sessions launched using the Salesforce Login block or within an active Salesforce recording session.

Fully expanded, the Set Element Radio Button block shows the following properties:

The Block Header

The green input connector at the top left triggers the execution of the block when the automation flow reaches this step.

Once the radio button value is successfully selected, the green output connector is activated.

The block title is automatically named based on the selected option, such as “Set Recurrence pattern”, but it can be changed by double-clicking the title to help clarify its purpose within the flow.

Text

Specifies the option to select within the radio button group. The value is captured during recording but can be modified manually in Studio.

Fail

This green output connector is triggered if the specified radio button group cannot be found within the defined timeout period. This allows for conditional actions or fallback mechanisms in the automation flow.

Default timeout

If the Default Timeout property checkbox is not selected, then the timeout value is 10 seconds. If the property checkbox is selected, then the Default timeout value selected in the flow settings will be applicable.

Timeout

Defines how long the block waits for the radio group or specific option before failing. It is only visible when the Default Timeout checkbox is not selected.

Note: All cases have a “global timeout” that can be configured in the “Settings” panel. This is unrelated to the timeout of a single building block. However, a running case is automatically canceled if it runs longer than the global timeout.
