@Naresh_Mandava … if you just want to print the group variable you can try as regexvar(0).groups(1).tostring…groups(2)

You need a loop only if you have set of items reparing for the same regex

So if you could show us what is regex outputs , we could assist better.

Hi @prasath17 … I have to get all the rows in the table, I don’t know how many tables I gonna get. Sometimes I may get 5 rows and then want to print all 5 rows

@Naresh_Mandava Can you provide the regex101 link that you have used in the Screenshot with Data in it ?

@Naresh_Mandava
lets assume you have a many matches returned from Matches Activity - IEnumerable(Of Match):

Bringing all matches into an StringArray (can be done without Loop)

To String Array
Matches.Select(Function (x) x.toString).toArray
Logging:
String.Join(Environment.NewLine, MatchValues2)

When it comes from Regex.Match(…) Method (MatchCollection)
YourMatchResultVar.Cast(of Match).Select(Function (x) x.toString).toArray

Similar we can do it for the groups:
arrGroupValue (String Array) = yourSingleMatchVar.Groups.Cast(Of Group).Select(Function (x) x.toString).toArray

@Naresh_Mandava
in general this request should be solved by the given demo statements.

Lets clear your details:

taken from your screenshot, we got (can you please confirm):

  • Matches is the result from a Match Activity, right? (DataType: IEnumerable(Of Match))
  • each single match (in your loop: item) has groups

accessing the groups:
GroupsArray (String array) = item.Groups.Cast(Of Group).Select(Function (x) x.toString).toArray
Depending if GroupsArray is matching the Datatable Column Structure you can use it for the add Datarow activity

If we have you misunderstood then provide us some more details to your flow and statements. Thanks
