When run on MacOS, processes that use web automations in browsers require Google Chrome Extension or Safari Extension to work.
When the Assistant is launched for the first time, if the Chrome extension is not detected, a prompt is displayed on the Assistant home page to install it.
You can add the extensions from the UiPath extensions section of the Preferences menu in the Assistant.
Once the installation is complete, the browser must be restarted and the extension enabled manually.
When designing a process for MacOS in Studio, the testing is done using Remote Debugging and connecting to the specific MacOS machine.
