How to fix problem with recorder in G1ANT - recorder

I'm trying to use recorder to record action in google chrome. Actually I see an error message. How to fix it?

The addon you are using is experimental and has not been finished. We are currently working on a new recorder which will be superior to that one. We will publish it in a near future. Moreover we don't recommend using application recorder for web automation. You should use selenium addon instead.

Is it worth using deathbycaptcha service?

I'm using Pupeeteer to automate some task on a website but there's Google's image captcha problem it appears after sometime.
I tried many things but can't solve this problem. Tried using chrome extension but puppeteer doesn't seem to work with that.
So I just wanna know is it worth using 'deathbycaptcha' service? Its paid but it looks like it will do the job.

Teams Toolkit: Search based Message Extension not returning Adaptive-Card

I kinda have an issue with the search-based Message Extension.
When I debug locally, my app works fine. After deploying the messaging extension on Azure and testing it in the Teams app, I can search for specific queries. The Message Extension gives me the desired results, up to here we are good to go.
The Problem:
After I select one of the delivered search results, the messaging extension does not return the adaptive card. The chat-box in Teams is simply empty.
Is anyone familiar with this issue?
I cannot reproduce this issue. Can you always reproduce this issue? I think you can retry several more times.
Or copy and paste the codes in bot/teamsBot.js here for troubleshooting.

Which Office JS functions work differently on the Mac Excel client?

My Excel add-in works perfectly fine in Excel client for Windows, Excel Web on a Windows browser and Excel Web on a Mac browser. However, it fails with a "GeneralException" in the Excel client for Mac. My add-in only uses the published Office API functions + JQuery and does not use the file system or any other external services.
Isn't the Office-js api cross-platform? Are there any functions that work differently? My add-in failure seems to occur when it adds named ranges and validations. Because it works fine when I run it on the browser, I can't even debug this further. If you have encountered a similar issue and/or have a solution, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
Unfortunately, it looks like a bug in the Excel client for Mac that is getting no love or attention from Microsoft. To circumvent it, I had to resort to conditionally removing the feature with something like this:
if (Office.context.platform === Office.PlatformType.Mac) {
console.log("Yep, I'm on the darn mac client");
//disable feature...
All the released Excel JS APIs are cross-platform. If you see a difference in behavior, please send the sample scripts that can reproduce the problem, and we can investigate that caused that. Thanks.

C# code for automating a website

All I want is to record the actions I perform in a website and have to get the code generated for the same in c#.To make it clear,I juss want to run the code so that the manual activity is performed automatically.Any help would be great.Thanks a lot.
Visual Studio has web test recording, it actually can generate code for you. This will record integration between browser and server. So if you rerun, server will think that you are doing something. This option is not browser automation.
WatiN is another option. This time, it is browser automation tool. It has recording tool too.
Third option is Selenium, very similar to WatiN. There are many tools to record Selenium scripts. Most supported one is Selenium IDE.
All tools, are quite easy to work with, and you can find good tutorials on the respective sites.
My best guess, of your needs is that you need #2 or #3. It looks like #3 is more active/mature tool, but I used both with success, so no problem to choose #2.
If you will go with #1, check what edition of Visual Studio you use. I am afraid, Web Testing could be available only in top editions, like Ultimate.
