Try instead:

        WebElement pickerWheel = driver.findElement(AppiumBy.className("XCUIElementTypePickerWheel"));
        pickerWheel.sendKeys("Other Role");
        WebElement doneButton = driver.findElement(AppiumBy.iOSNsPredicateString("name == 'Done' OR value == 'Done'"));
        tap(doneButton);

Hi @Aleksei I updated Appium app inspector and now its showing xpath and I’m performing like this .click(’//XCUIElementTypePickerWheel[@value=“Other Role”]/XCUIElementTypeOther[1]’) But it is not working

it will not work. you need sendKeys (old setValue) instead

@Aleksei sendKeys are not working it is unable to scroll or select “Other Role” from the XCUIElementTypePickerWheel , I tried

.sendKeys(‘xpath’, ‘//XCUIElementTypePickerWheel[@value=“Other Role”]’, ‘Other Role’)
.setValue(‘xpath’, ‘//XCUIElementTypePickerWheel[@value=“Other Role”]’)
.setValue(’-ios class chain’, ‘**/XCUIElementTypePickerWheel[value == "Other Role"]’)

Vinay,
As a workaround, try .sendKeys or .setValue to the ROLE field instead of the PickerWheel element… then click ‘Done’.
