Find an element by the dynamical selector

Hello, everyone!
I’m new in UIPath and I have a problem.
So, I have a web-app where teachers can give points to their students. I have a list of students with their points. But the problem is that for each students there is a special field. So I need to select this field dynamically. This means that I need to create new selector and find an element by it.
How can I do it?

Does the field selector contain the student’s name?

If u take some field selector u can see there will be some pattern that you can use dynamically.
For example , 1). idx value be increasing in pattern , than you can pass the integer counter as string there and keep increamenting it.
2). Or you can see aaname will be student name , than you can pass student name as string dynamically in selector.

This container’s parent has another conteiner where I can find students name (like table row, where the 1st collumn is student name and the 2nd is his points)
