I dont have any usecase as of now infront of me right now, but we generally face sometime the table is not friendly with data scraping, for that scenario I am asking this, wheather we can get individual cell or column for example or any use case you have came accross , so you help with the experience, that how did you solve the issue.

To get the Individual cell you can try with Get Text, Get Full text, Screen Scrapping these activity.

To get the whole column

You can use Data scrapping , Table Extraction methods

Hello @learning_sourav

If you are telling you need to extract a table of content and the element is not a table.
You can try Table extraction which allows table extraction as well as pattern-based data.

If you just want to get only one value then you can use Get Text activity. Totally depends on what you are going to automate.

Thanks
