About screen scraping

I want to get some values about stock at NSEINDIA.com by using screen scraping activity. And want to write this data in temp. data table by using ADD DATA ROW activity. Then what should be the variable type of the output of screen scrapping activity ?

HI @swapnilpatil8200

Welcome to the community !!

The variable type of Screen scrapping will be Generic Value

Hi @swapnilpatil8200

You can also try with Get Text Activity store the result in the Datatype as → String

Have a look on the documentation

This is the default variable that is being automatically generated

You can also change the type to string or pass the new string variable in the output field of Get Visible text or Get full text activity

but with this variable type i am unable to use add data row activity. it shows error

its not work

Hi @swapnilpatil8200

Share the XAML File if possible.

Need to convert the format

Span.Tostring
Convert.ToInt32(“IntegerVariable”)
Convert.ToDouble(“DoubleVariable”)
Convert.ToDecimal(“DecimalVariable”)

Use the variable like this

ScreenScrappingvariable.ToString

So the datatable was built by you with build datatable, right?
Use Cdbl(PRE_CLOSE) or Cint(PRE_CLOSE)

Or change the type as string in your build datatable

Regards

For the column PRE_CLOSE

and follow the same method for all the columns if it throws error
