Getting the value next to an element

Hello friends,
I need to extract the value next to a box in an Html page.


For example I need to extract the value next to the box Data Effetto.
I tried with Anchor Base but it didn’t work.
Can you kindly help me?
Thank you so much for your help and attention.
Camilla.

Thank you so much @Manjuts90 .
Is there a way to get the element next to the one called “Data Effetto”?
So is there a way to indicate the name in the Anchor Element that I want to use?
Thank you so much,
Camilla.

@camicat After extracting text if ur output contains like “Data Effetto 22/05/2017” split text with reference as “Data Effetto”. If your o/p doesn’t comes like this then display the extracted text uising “message box activity” and send screenshot of it.

Is it possible to use the Find Relative Element Activity and insert the name of box I’m searching? (for example the box next to “Data Effetto”)?

Anchor base should be used only when there is no other possible solution using a reliable selector.

Hi @CamiCat,

Please provide me URL, if it is in tabular format you can use data scraping to get the value from web site.

Thanks
