How to click "OK"on IOS alert box using Appium 1.21.0 on Simulator?

Question

I'm writing a test using Java & Appium 1.21.0. I'm unable to click "OK" button on alert box to close the popup on the Simulator iPhone.

I tried the following code:

Actions action = new Actions(getDriver());
action.moveToElement(getDriver().findElement(By.xpath("//XCUIElementTypeButton[@name=\"OK\"]")));
action.click();
action.perform();

The above code is not working.

Using the following:

• Appium 1.21.0
• Xcode 14.0.1 - running simulator iPhone 8

You can try this one:

caps.setCapability("autoAcceptAlerts", "true"); //to accept all alerts //OR caps.setCapability("autoDissmissAlerts", "true"); //to dismiss all alerts
