Does Selenium Standalone Server 2.47.0 supports "sendKeys" command?

Question

I'm using Selenium Standalone server 2.47.0, does it support the sendKeys command?

Any one used sendKeys command in 2.47.0?

Note: I know we can use type command but I need sendKeys to work.

Can you show the code where you use `sendKeys()`? Are you getting any errors? — alecxe, Sep 25 '15 at 13:49
yes, I'm getting following error: |sendKeys | name=user currentTest.recordFailure: Command execution failure. Please search the user group at https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/selenium-users for error details from the log window. The error message is: Element is not currently interactable and may not be manipulated — BSalunke, Sep 25 '15 at 15:20
@BSalunke That is an entirely different problem, you should either rewrite your question or open another one. Your problem is that you try to send text to an element which is not "interactable", i.e. an element which cannot receive text like a label, or a
or a ... whatever. Tell us what you really want to do with what kind of tool (looks like you are recording with selenium-ide or are you replaying some recorded script?) and show us some of your HTML page code with the element you want to type text to and a part of the script or code that runs the test. — Würgspaß, Sep 25 '15 at 16:39

Yes, it definitely does, here is an example from our code:

protected void type(String xpath, String text) {
    WebElement element = driver.findElement(By.xpath(xpath));
    element.sendKeys(text);
}

using Build info: version: '2.47.0', revision: '0e4837e', time: '2015-07-29 22:56:05'

Yes, .sendkeys("texthere") is a valid option in Selenium Standalone server 2.47.0.
