thank you for helping me to see my mistake
One of the possible reasons of such errors are security restricitions. Try to add infra.ftgroup to Trusted sites zone in IE settings:
Also try to open the website in compatibility view:
And play a bit with modes on Developer tools F12 - Emulation tab:

The debugger points to the line -HTMLinput.Value = "test"
Everything before works fine. I don't know what's the problem. I have verified my ID to make sure there is no mistakes.

I want my macro to open each link stored in a spreadsheet in a separate IE tab. I am successful with opening the first link, but for some reason on the second iteration of the loop I get:
Automation error.The interface is unknown
error.
I suspect the macro somehow loses IE object reference after first iteration, but I am not sure why.
Range is set OK.
Here is the code:
Sub OpenCodingForms()
Dim wb1 As Workbook
Dim ws1 As Worksheet
Dim CodingFormLinks As Range
Dim IE as InternetExplorerMedium
Set wb1 = Workbooks("New shortcut.xlsm")
Set ws1 = wb1.Worksheets("Data")
Set CodingFormLinks = ws1.Range("A2", Range("A2").End(xlDown))
Set IE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
IE.Visible = True
ws1.Activate
For Each link In CodingFormLinks.Cells
IE.Navigate link, CLng(2049)
Next link
End Sub
I ran into this issue before and ended up just writing a routine to get the instance. You will need to add a reference to shell controls and automation.
you may have to adjust this to look for the sURL var in the beginning of the actual URL if there is redirection.

Sorry we downvoted you, try this. If we click on the anchor you specified but I needed to use Unicode character logic. The rest is just navigating the DOM. I have put default username and password of "hello" and "world".
