Hi team,

I have an excel file with list of movie names. I want to use IMDb Website (URL: https://www.imdb.com/) to extract few information (below 4 data points) and fill that in the excel file.

  1. IMDb Rating - Available at the top to the Right Hand Side of the Movie Name in the Movie Page
  2. Genres - Available in the Storyline section of the Movie Page
  3. Release Date - Available in the Details section of the Movie Page
  4. Run Time - Available in the Technical specs section of the Movie Page

So, the workflow should take the movie name paste it in search bar of the Website and the Movie page would open. From this page all the above mentioned information will be taken and pasted in the excel file.

If any information is not available for any movie - It can just populate “NA”

Is it possible using UI automation feature available on Uipath? If Yes, Could you please help me here. Thanks in advance.

I am attaching here a sample excel file with data populated from one movie as an example.
