I can create the macro and it will replay with no issues but when I create a new monitor using said macro I get an error after I try the first check:

Website: [https://www.google.com/travel/flights](https://www.google.com/travel/flights)

Macro playback failed at step: scroll.  
frame.waitForSelector: Timeout 30000ms exceeded.

Error evaluating expression: [“scroll”,[“selector”,{“meta”:{},“type”:“css”,“value”:“[aria-label=‘Enter\ your\ destination’] [aria-autocomplete=‘both’]”}],0,0,{“frame”:0}]  
Error evaluating statement: “scroll”, at Position: [7]

Hi @harrypotter

Can you please share the details of the macro (you can export it as a JSON and share the file with us) for us to try & investigate the issue?

Cheers,

hi @harrypotter

Please try the attached modified version of the macro.  
Sometimes you need to tweak some of the steps recorded in the macro to ensure it works.

Yes this one works thank you.  
But what tweaks do you recommend me do to make it work?

I’m having a similar issue with [delta.com](http://delta.com)

Hi @harrypotter,

You can look into the details of the macro itself & compare it with the one you sent across.  
There was a scroll step in your macro which was not required & I simply deleted it. Furthermore, I added a waitDuration at a couple of points, to ensure the dynamic elements are loaded in the page.  
Hope that gives you an idea.

Cheers,  
Surya
