Have you tried element.send_keys? The endpoint to UIA2 server is https://github.com/appium/appium-uiautomator2-driver/blob/b3dd0a2738543a0ce3ceeb6d3dfe8aa2918977d4/lib/commands/element.js#L68-L74 that is the same as https://github.com/appium/appium/blob/master/packages/base-driver/lib/protocol/routes.js#L234-L248 (element.send_keys)

Looks like the official webdriver does not really use set_value. But in selenium-webdriver-at-spi send_keys and set_values map to "Send key input" and "atspi.valueElement.currentValue = value", so they are different.

The idea is to only have send_keys.

You can still have non-standard api if it is used with your particular driver by adding an extension method to the driver. Check

Nice, didn't know that. Thanks for pointing out.
