[Emily_Yip]

I have an excel to store the choice of dropdown. I want to use the excel choice(September) to choose the same name dropdown(September) list choice in a website automatically. I am extremely want to get this done. How can I do that using unipath studio? Thanks

Hi @Emily_Yip

Use the select functionality and click on “Any” beside the “Month”

Now you will need to pass the month in the text file on the activity

Try hard-coding it for start and see it’s able to select the drop down first…

Hope this helps, happy coding

Thanks @Shubham_Varshney.

But would you mind to explain how to do that. As I am new in using Uipath, I am not quite understand how to set it in studio.

[Shubham_Varshney]

Sure @Emily_Yip

Please go through the article below:

https://docs.uipath.com/activities/docs/select-item

If that doesn’t work, we can try an alternative path i.e. passing variables in the selectors we got

Hope this helps

thanks so much @Shubham_Varshney
It helps me a lot.

May I ask one more question ?
If I have two dropdown list with same element.
I give one dropdown list to a user and he choose one option from list.
I want my second dropdown will automatically select the same option of the user.
How can I do that ?

[Shubham_Varshney]

Yup, it can be done

You will need to have an input and output in the select item

@Shubham_Varshney

I have done the following. Why it is not working?

[Shubham_Varshney]

I think just put info2.Tostring

If this isn’t working, check for the selectors for the year
