Automation Anywhere full command list and tutorial with live example: Insert Keystroke

Insert keystroke is exactly what we would do the action from key board i.e if you want to do short cut for save then you will be using Ctrl + S so, using keystroke you can deliver specific keystrokes in an application as a human would enter on a regular keyboard.  

In Automation Anywhere insert keystrokes by: 
1. Open a task using task editor 
2. Then drag and drop the Insert keystroke command into task editor 
3. Select the application needed keystrokes from the select window dropdown list  
4. Type/Insert/click on the specific keystrokes in the keystrokes box 
5. Insert keystrokes exactly as you performed on a keyboard ( here use Down and Up keys for commands that need to be pressed and held i.e short cut for save (Ctrl + S) would be inserted as shown in the keystroke box.
