How to put userinput variable in search box which is one of UI elements?

Hi all

 

I'm trying to create a desktop flow which is automated to search and extract data to excel. 

In this case, I set to display pop-up dialog to get words from user and store the value in UserInput variable to enter it in the search box on web page, but even though it's configured as below, the user input value is not entered in the search box. 

Can you give me some advice for this?

While capturing the UI element for the search text box, there are some characters shown.

Capture it again without any characters inside it.

If still issues exists please share the screenshot of the selector window for the search box UI element, and also if you are getting any error message.
