Write flows (scripts) in simple TagUI language and automate your web, mouse and keyboard interactions on the desktop.

TagUI is free to use and open-source. It’s easy to setup and use and works on Windows, macOS and Linux.

In TagUI language, you use steps like click and type and interact with identifiers, which includes images, screen coordinates, or even text using OCR:

https://www.typeform.com

click login
type username as user@gmail.com
type password as 12345678
click btnlogin

download https://admin.typeform.com/xxx to report.csv

v6 Features

TagUI live mode

You can run TagUI live mode directly for faster development by running tagui live on the command line.

Click using OCR

TagUI can now click on the screen with visual automation just using text input, using OCR.

click v6 Features using ocr

Deploy flows to run when double clicked

You can now create a shortcut for a flow, which can be moved to your desktop and double-clicked to run the flow. The flow will be run with all the options used when creating the shortcut.

$ tagui my_flow.tag -deploy
OR
$ tagui my_flow.tag -d

Running flows with options can be done with abbreviations

You can now do tagui my_flow.tag -h instead of tagui my_flow.tag -headless. This applies to all run options.

Migrating to v6

Mandatory .tag extension

All flow files must have a .tag extension.

Options must be used with a leading hyphen(-)

When running a flow with options, prepend a - to the options.

Before v6:

$ tagui my_flow.tag headless

v6:

$ tagui my_flow.tag -headless
OR
$ tagui my_flow.tag -h

echo, dump, write steps

The echo, dump and write steps are now consistent with the other steps. They no longer require quotes surrounding the string input. Variables need to be surrounded by backticks.

Before v6:

echo 'This works!' some_text_variable

v6:

echo This works! `some_text_variable`

If and loop code blocks can use indentation instead of curly braces

This increases readability and ease of use. Just indent your code within the if and loop code blocks (similar to in Python).

Before v6:

if some_condition
{
  do_some_step_A
  do_some_step_B
}

v6:

if some_condition
  do_some_step_A
  do_some_step_B
