Cannot find the specific element with Find class in WatIN

Question

I am trying to automate rest client but when I try to enter a value in the URL text-box it does not find the object by id and even by name

What I actually did was Find.ById and Find.ByName but it does not seem to find the element.

In order to do it, you need to override the existing functionality. Below is the code to get the textfield of type 'URL'.

[ElementTag("input", InputType = "url", Index = 5)]
public class CustomTextField : Element<CustomTextField>
{
    public CustomTextField(DomContainer domContainer, INativeElement element) : base(domContainer, element) { }
    public CustomTextField(DomContainer domContainer, ElementFinder finder) : base(domContainer, finder) { }
}
