hello gdave - 

 

A few questions to better assist you - are you using the property based approach to identify elements or xpath/css?

 

Please let me know so I can help advise. 

 

Thanks, 
Emma

      Hey gdave 

       

      Just reviewing your query. 

       

      So if I understand your issue. 

       

      What we need to do is generalize your parent object in the name mapping. 

       

      In other words not have it associated to a client/portfolio/ID which changes based on different users/iterations. 

       

      Is that correct? 

       

      You can use a wild card here to generalize the parent object.

      I have a screenshots of an example I used recently applying this method in my salesforce instance 

       

      Let me know if this works
