Reading pdf with regex. how to continue when he's not finding the object?

im extraction pdf’s sometimes the location of the object I want to extract is moved 1 line in the pdf.
is it still possible to extract without getting the error? because the robot doesn’t continue when he’s getting that object error.

Hey @Nightowl_music

Put the pdf extraction logic inside Try-Catch Block.

ok I will try, most important is if he doesn’t find the specific text. that he will continue

System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(inputString,“pattern”).Success

It will return True if something was found.
Return False if not match was found.

is use activity Matches not Match… so you recommend to use Match activity ?

@Nightowl_music - you can use matches or Match…

If you matches activity then you check for .count variable …if the count is >= 1 then you can continue the process…

system.text.regularexpressions.regex.matches("yourstring", "pattern").count

Hope this helps…
