  1. Use Read range activity for excel reading and store it into data table dt1.
  1. Use For each row activity to iterate through dt1.
  2. Create a variable ā€œIDNameā€ and store the value of Row(ā€œIDā€).ToString. Create another variable ā€œLinkā€ and store the second column value Row(ā€œLinkā€).ToString.
  3. Use ā€œopen browserā€ activity with passing the Link variable in it. This will open your web page.
  4. Use GetFullText activity to scrap the motivation letter and store it in another string variable strData.
  5. Use ā€œAppend lineā€ activity to append data from strData to this file. Also, pass the variable ā€œIDNameā€ in FileName property. You can also pass your path in string format before IDName variable. This will create file automatically if file donā€™t exists.

Let me know incase of any queries.
