How could I get the idx of the element?

[EngAnalyst]

Hello

When I use “Get attribute”, i does not seem to appear an option of “idx”. How should I do it?

Thanks a lot.

Edit: when having lots of fields (whose difference is just the idx number) I need to get the idx of one of them to do some calculations.

Hi
mention as “idx” in get attribute activity, though it doesn’t show in the list
that would work for sure

Cheers @EngAnalyst

I tried @palaniyappan but an error is shown:

[Palaniyappan]

Fine
make sure that selector that we have used in the get attribute has the attribute idx in its node.i.e, in its selector
else we wont get
Cheers @EngAnalyst

[Palaniyappan]

Cheers @EngAnalyst

[EngAnalyst]

No… I still have the error message shown below…

[Palaniyappan]

Kindly make a selection with the element once and include the idx attribute to the selector from selector editor and try buddy
This should work but i wonder why its not

Hi @EngAnalyst

Do you have selector property as aaname

Thanks

What happens is that I have a lot of fields whose only difference is just the “idx”. when using “get attribute” activity and selecting a field, it appears as a selector the “idx” number (let me remind that its the only difference against the rest of the fields). So if i write “*” in the idx property, then it does not work…
