Dynamic selectors issue

Help

I am trying to fetch some text from a web page which which should be dynamic in the sense that everytime a different version of the same web page appears and i need to fetch the same information from it(for example i need to fetch the CEO’s of different companies from google). Now i am using Get Text activity for it, now the issue arises that i created the workflow with one version of the web page now when i try to run with the different version the same value is fetched when it should not(for example i created the workflow for Google CEO now when i run it for Apple CEO i get the same result as previous that is google CEO). I am pretty sure this is an issue with the selector, if someone could help that would be great.

Hi @shekhawat.arjun1307,

If the table column is fixed u can use the same.
No need to go to dynamic one

The first snap of ui explorer is from the Decision Column. Similarly i need to fetch all the other columns as well but the issue is that i keep getting only one value with which i first started the get text activity.
