How to click on the first link that appear with regex formula


Hello , How to click on the first link that appear with regex formula because the title of the first link always change depend on the search , i need steps to pick up the first link and and navigate to

@aya.lajili

If you are using match activity then you will get only the first result by default…if you are using matches then from the output

Ienummatches(0).Value will give the first matched value

Then we can use open browser or navigate url activities to open the required url

Hi @aya.lajili ,

  • Try to extract the data into a data table consisting of 3 columns (Link name, Information, URL) with the help of ‘Data scrapping’.
  • Once this is done, You can use the ‘filter data table’ activity. With that only keep those rows in which the ‘Information’ column contains your search syntax.
  • Now get the URL of first row in your datatable by using below syntax,
URL_var = YourDatatable.Rows(0)(“URL”)
  • Use the “navigate to” activity and open that URL.

Let me know if this works for you.

But data scrapping not working on this site so ?

Could you please share the selector of that link? If possible please open the same in UiExplorer.


Try clicking on this icon :page_facing_up: and check if it is generating any selector which contains a rowindex or something? If its there then maybe we can use that as an anchor.
Also check if its possible to open that link by clicking on that document icon.

@aya.lajili

Is ui automation or dedault framework is not identifying the elemnets…

I see you are using active accessibility framework

Cheers
