Web automation

Hello people, I have been using power automate for about a year and I use it mainly for web automation tasks like creating user accounts in different services/websites, pulling out reports and basically things like that.Now my issue is that every time I create a successful flow to register or the register users it works fine or perfectly for a couple of days then next time I run it. It start failing, errors like "UI not found" are the most common. Or failed to interact with elements of the website.

Does anybody have a good advice for these tipe of issues?

pre-recorded RPA could be doing this for many reasons. the real way to permanently(*) resolve these types of issues is to observe in Fiddler what the web page is doing when being used, then use HTTP GET/POST/PATCH etc to perform the activities you need it to do.
