Hi @HELZMOTH_BJ

To click each attachment, extract file names using a regex like \S+(\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4})+(\-[a-zA-Z0-9]+)*\.(xlsm|xlsx|pdf) from the text. Then, iterate over the file names in a For Each loop and use the Click activity with a dynamic selector that includes the file name for each attachment.

@HELZMOTH_BJ

If your data looks like as data table then use extract datatable activity to extract all the file names,
then use for each range to loop all items inside loop use click activity to click on respective action and one more thing you can get all of your data in data table. you can get your file items from data table itself

Does it can be used for multiple Dot like this one- OBS_PMI_StatementOfRequirements_GLOBAL_v1.8_PK-MDX-PMI.xlsx

And also does it work for this case also - Global.1…xlsx-shangania redesigning.xlsx

I am using this regex System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Matches(filename, “\d{1,2}h\d{2}\s+([^\t\n\r]+?.(msg|xlsx|pdf|jpg|jpeg|png|zip|7zip|txt|doc|docx|))”) but in this case “OBS_PMI_StatementOfRequirements_GLOBAL_v1.8_PK-MDX-PMI.xlsx”
I got the result “OBS_PMI_StatementOfRequirements_GLOBAL_v1.8” this fails the my selector as it not able to click this. and also this in this case “Global.1…xlsx-shangania redesigning.xlsx” my selector fails

The image is a screenshot of an automation workflow, likely from UiPath, featuring steps like assignment, delay, and retry scopes, along with elements like file name extraction and conditional actions, with certain images missing or placeholders displayed. (Captioned by AI)
