@MijaelWatts Maybe try to get the focus on a page element (via the .focus() method) when you load your page or emulate a click on an hidden field ?
Excelent! thanks 🍻
Can I rely on this for API call?

Hi,
It worked perfectly except in one scenario. If I run the code and without doing any interaction with the window I click on the close button, the dialog box does not appear. I have to do some interaction in the window (like clicking the blank area) for the dialog to appear the next time I want to close the window.
Any thoughts on how to solve this issue?
