@AndersJensen Thanks! I used an array with the ASCII symbols of the arrows stored, and in the switch condition I will retrieve them based on the direction from the GET.
@fairymemay these are the packages used

Beginners Advent Challenge #1
Santa is RPA enthusiastic and would like to determine the wind speeds of his key points himself. His programming elves should not help him. An API call is much too simple. An ambitious challenge to automate a web UI robust and reliable. So he automates the UI of his Danish weather forecast. Why Danish 
he asks himself, I come from Finland 
. Anyway, here is his attempt.
AdventChallenge1.zip (198.2 KB)
- Create a CSV file with the key points.
- Load the CSV file.
- Open Danish weather forecast in the browser.
- Loop over the CSV and read the key points.
- Enter the key points into the field of the weather forecast.
- Read the results.
- Extract the wind speed from the result.
- Write the wind speed into the CSV file.
With a tailwind the reindeers need less food or I can eat a little more, he said to himself and smiled.

Santa orders his shower power programming elf to come. “Hey” he says, “I need the wind speeds of my key points via the API of the Danish weather forecast”. “This is a very simple thing”, the elf replies. With an HTTP request in a loop that processes a CSV file it is quickly realized. No sooner said than done.

Afterwards they sit together at the fireplace and drink Glögg. A call via an API, they think, is much easier to realize than via the UI. No RPA elf (and of course Citizen Developer) should have concerns to use APIs. This can sometimes lead to success faster than trying to automate exclusively via the UI. Satisfied they look at each other and wait for the next advent challenge.

The Rock is cooking dinner for the people for the holidays!
When suddenly Santa Messaged him that he needs his help to get the wind directions.
The rock was pissed because he is about to taste the food he was Cooking (get it?)
So he raised his eyebrows
Then santa said. Dwayne, remember, you are currently on my good boy list. i dont want to add you to the naughty ones
Then he realized he was dreaming of the WWE Championship Belt and wished for Santa to let him win.
So he hurriedly checked for the wind speed of each country.
finally, since Santa is on a rush, instead of sending an email. He just sent the values of the wind direction via SMS.
Then, smelled that the food he was cooking was burning…
But then suddenly he realized that he was able to help Santa by using UiPath and Using API calls as well as using Twilio to send Santa his requests
The smell of Victory 
;D ;D ;D

Dear Santa,
I hope you’re doing great in this special year !
I had your message asking me to help you in your journey and I in turn asked UiPath for help to:
- Get the cities of your journey using UiPath Excel activities
- Get cities wind information using UiPath Web activities
- Generate your report using UiPath Presentation activities
I noted that the Excel file you sent is well formatted, thank you for that. I fed my elf-bot with, so that he knows for which cities you want wind information from.
After getting information from a Danish website, my elf-bot translated it in English so that you can understand in which side the wind is blowing…
Eventually, you’ll receive a PDF file listing the cities in your journey as well as wind information as requested (note : my elf-bot added local temperature as extra info for you to anticipate your clothing) .
Don’t forget to drop by my house for my gifts 
Have a nice journey !

Seems like santa is still sleepy and lazy so prefers not to say talk much and just do the action.
A simple workflow with annotations and workflow analyzer used in it.

Hi,
Here is my contribution.
Using a excel sheet with Cities and pre entered column names for Wind Temperature.
Looping round all cities and parsing the json data returned from teh HTTP Request.
Finally updating the excel sheet again.
I tried to dynamically create a map based on the cities, but failed to enter the data correctly. Tried to use batchgeo.com here.
Sample map by manual entry.
BatchGeo: Make a map from your data
This will be fun! Happy Automation!

So its time to give back. Santa needs help
Let me remind have I previously helped Santa with something like this…
checking the output file is created and if not creating one, initializing an array to store the cities
Let me just memorize quickly all the translation that might be needed…
Creating a dictionary for translating the Danish directions to English
Asking the source of all information for the details…
Getting the required data using the HTTP activity
Got it all, let me make it simpler for Santa to understand as his age is few years greater than Internet…
translating the direction from Danish to English
Here it is…
So I hope you will not forget my gifts for Christmas : “2 iPhone 12 pro max” 
also, ping me once you meet jingle bell
Happy journey!!!
