Auto-paste clipboard content in RunMacro

What it does

The Paste from Clipboard command pastes whatever is currently in the clipboard (what you or a previous step copied) into the focused field. Unlike Paste Text (fixed content), this uses dynamic clipboard content.

When to use it

  • Copy data in a previous step, then paste it elsewhere.
  • Move data between apps via the clipboard.
  • Paste content the user just copied.

Configuration steps

  1. Make sure the clipboard has content (use Copy Text or Set Clipboard first).
  2. Click the target field.
  3. Add a Keyboard › Paste from Clipboard command.
  4. (Optional) enable Select all / Type instead / Press Enter.
  5. Save.

Every option explained

Select all before paste (Ctrl+A)

Selects existing content before pasting to replace it.

Type instead of paste

Types the clipboard content character by character instead of an instant paste.

Press Enter after paste

Presses Enter when done.

Real example

Example: copy field A, paste into field B

  1. Select field A, use Copy Text.
  2. Click field B.
  3. Paste from Clipboard to move the content into field B.

Tips & common mistakes

Combine with Copy Text to move data between two apps.
