Click multiple buttons

axiom.ai gives you several ways to click more than one button in a single automation, depending on whether the buttons share a pattern or you need to repeat the same click many times.

Use the Click multiple elements step

The Click multiple elements step clicks every element matching a selector. Useful for clicking each item in a list.

  1. Open the step finder and add Click multiple elements.
  2. Click Select and use the selector tool to choose the elements.
  3. Set the click action to Left click or Right click.
  4. Set Maximum clicks to cap the number of clicks.

This step doesn't support clicking a button, doing some other actions, then clicking the next button. For that pattern, loop through CSS selectors instead.

Loop through CSS selectors

When you need to click a button, perform actions, then move on to the next button, store the buttons' CSS selectors in a Google Sheet and loop through them.

  1. Create a Google Sheet with one CSS selector per row.
  2. Add a Read data from a Google Sheet step pointing at the sheet.
  3. Add a Loop through data step using the [google-sheet-data] token.
  4. Inside the loop, add a Click element step.
  5. In the Click element step, click Select, choose Custom, tick Set selector from data, and pick the [google-sheet-data] token.
  6. Click Complete.

For more on this pattern, see custom CSS selectors.

Repeat a single click with a jump step

To click the same button several times in a row, pair Click element with a Jump to another step or Conditionally jump to another step step.

  1. Add a Click element step and configure it with the selector tool.
  2. Add a Jump to another step or Conditionally jump to another step step. Set Jump to step to the Click element step.
  3. Set Maximum cycles (or, for the conditional version, configure the condition).

Click with JavaScript

The Write javascript step gives you full control when the no-code steps don't fit. Two common approaches:

For starting points, see the JavaScript snippets reference.
