Hi,

You can use the following activity to read the text from the notepad file.
The output will be saved into a string.

You can use string manipulations or regex expression to find the data from a string depending on your search pattern.

Hi @venkateshtangudu

Use the Read Text File activity (mentioned by @KarthikByggari ) and get the data onto a string variable. Using this variable you can use the split function without a problem.
