Rule not firing on click event

[#1]

I'm trying to create a rule where when a user clicks an icon on the page the rule fires. The icon is however within an iframe, and i cannot target the URL.

Any user interaction within an IFRAME usually cannot be detected by the parent frame, which is where your Launch property is. And so Launch will not be able to detect those interactions/events.

If you can add code to the page in the IFRAME, consider using postMessage() in the IFRAME to send the event data up to the parent frame. Then within Launch, you can use window.addEventListener('message', callbackFunction) to handle those events as you wish.

I am quite new to this - is there a working example that i can follow anywhere?

@aeliayousaf try this: https://scriptverse.academy/tutorials/html5-window-postmessage.html

<iframe id="myIFrame" src="about:blank" width="100%" height="1024"></iframe> where should i use postMessage()?

I don't think the method will work if your IFRAME's src is "about:blank". Instead, if your IFRAME's src is "page.html", then you'd include the postMessage() in page.html.
