Find Children Option & For Each in Workflow

[Brandon_Friedlander]

I am working on automation to pull data from a website that has a drop-down menu. I know I can use the “select item” and choose the item I would like, but I would like to select an item in the list and download the data. Then I would like to select the next item in the list and download the data, so on and so forth until I’ve reached the end of the list. I was able to find some ideas on using “Find Children” and “For Each in Workflow”, but it doesn’t appear StudioX has this functionality. Is there a way to do it in StudioX?

Hey, @Brandon_Friedlander! Going to the solution! I used the website (Becas - Inscrever-se para as) to test!

→ Dropdown example:

• Step 1: Use “Find Children” Activity with the dropdown selector.
  

  

  Properties:
  

• Step 2: For each item in “Find Children” Activity Output.
  

  

  Properties:
  

  

• Step 3: Get attribute “aaname” or relative attribute containing the value of input data.
  

  Properties (ATTENTION HERE!!!):
  

  

• Step 4: I used write line to see the result, but you will use “Select Item” Activity.
  

  

• Conclusion: I will check this solution in StudioX and back to give you the answer in this scenario.

@gabrielribas4 I appreciate the feedback and this appears to be close to what I would like to do. Any feedback for this process in StudioX is greatly appreciated.
