Right now it is not possible to type into a javascript prompt -- the only options are to confirm or cancel an alert.

I would like support for a keyword like "Insert into prompt" that would type into a prompt.

I did a quick prototype on my mac, and it seemed pretty easy to implement:

    def insert_into_prompt(self, text):
        alert = None
        try:
            alert = self._current_browser().switch_to_alert()
            alert.send_keys(text)

        except WebDriverException:
            raise RuntimeError('There were no alerts')

Sounds like a good suggestion.

Should probably be named like "Input Text Into Prompt" to be consistent with "Input Text".

@Kristina001 I do not think this will help for your situation unfortunately. This is for the JS method Window prompt.

When I do something like
Go to https://username:password@mytestwebsite.com
Input Text Into Prompt ${url_username}

(Or you can just open Privet window) I get this. Does it look like an alert? If so then "Input Text Into Prompt" keyword doesn't work for Safari Technology Preview Release 33 (Safari 11.0, WebKit 12604.1.25.0.2)

Yes , I am getting the same problem it is not an alert.
Have you been able to find how to input text there, without the url technique(https://username:password@mytestwebsite.com`) ?
