Dynamic selector table row based on searched word

[zigmo]

I have a need to select the Identifier value from the FSAN row (see screenshot).

In the example, it is in the 4th row but it can be in the 2, 3, 4, and sometimes 5th row. How do I find the row # the word “FSAN” is in for column 2 and then get the value in the same row but column 1?

Create a dynamic selector as described below:

How to use variables in selectors in Studio (dynamic selectors) without string manipulation!

This tutorial will teach you how to easily use variables in your selectors. In other words, we will be making dynamic selectors without the use of the old method of concatenating strings. How cool is that! For the purpose of this tutorial, I will make 1 click in the Notepad app. Feel free to also reference our documentation here. Let’s begin! 1. First, we will indicate the element we want to click on. In this case, it will be File menu in Notepad: [image] This results in the…

for this you need to use a different selector tag.

• After edit selector click on open uiexplorer
• reindicate on FSAN
• on right top side from panel you will get some alternates, take some tag with FSAN as content (e.g innertext)
• apply the dynamizing as from link above
• remove any Tablerow tags

Hi @jiechiat83_Low

Since According to figure posted by @zigmo on his query, it is a table format

Since u need to select the identifier based on row that contains FSAN

u can try the following

1. Datascrape the table (along with identifier and their corresponding url which help to naviagate to page when we click on identifier)

2. Since after datatscrapping data is stored in datatable u can use some condition to validate where row("Type).Equals(“FSAN”)
   ( Inside for each row.i am validating)

When it is equal u can use the identifier or it’s corresponding url to naviagate to webpage
Or instead of using url u can use click activitiy to click the identifier by making it as dynamic
(By using identifier number to identify the element to be clicked)

Well you can try in both ways

Hope it helps you
