How to use "Type Into" on a web table

[jeanloup.pernelet]

Hi

I am working on a web dataTable and I can’t figure out how to select the right field to use my ‘Type Into’ activity.

I have an Excel with the highlighted numbers to match with my table and I want the bot to recognize the number so it can type into the related field (circled in red)

Please let me know if you need further information…

Many thanks for your help,

JL

You can use Data scraping to extract the data of the columns and based use some string split to the get the number

Hope this helps you

Give a try on enter the text into the field and get anchored by the yellow number. For this work with the variables and integrated anchor (nav up/down info).

Have a look here for getting a first impression:

I was trying to get anchored by the yellow number so into my anchor base activity I used a ‘Find Element’ with yellow number as a variable but the bot can’t find the corresponding value in the first column of my table, here is what’s in the selector :
