How to capture the output from putty session and copy it to word?

Hi Guys,

I have a below requirement.

  1. Connect to putty,execute a query. Output of the query varies from time to time( some times it gives me 2 rows some times many and sometimes null )

How to capture the output from query and copy it to word?

Thanks,
Vishal Kumar

Are you using Data Extract or OCR?

OCR works well on terminal sessions, although not the preferred option.

Hi @richarddenton,

If I use OCR, I may need to specify the region from which to extract and the output changes from time to time and region indication may not work everytime !!

How to proceed on this ? Do you have any idea ?

Thanks,
Vishal Kumar

Hi Ronak,

Hi Vishal,

Could you pls explain in a detailed way , how you used spool to capture output from Putty, and use that captured data in UiPATH.

Hi Raam,

Spool command uses to log the all activities from putty to .txt file (but it will only work with DB utility).

To read the normal text use the read full-text activity and to perform any operation use the Hot key.

Thanks
