Table extraction and the scrolling

Hello,

In the table extraction feature, there is a provision to provide the Next button. But incase if the Next button is not visible and visible only after some scrolling, it is not extracting from the entire Table. So is there a chance to add a scroll to the Table Extraction property? After the extraction of the First Page data, it should scroll down and click on the Next button and need to extract from other pages.

So in the property Scroll can be provided as a choice to select.

Hey

You can use the find element or hover element activities after scraping

Hello,

In that case we cannot provide the next button in the Table extraction properly and we will have to go for another approach. Here I’m looking for a property which can directly scroll inside the Table Extravtion.

@Rahul_Unnikrishnan we have this feature in the roadmap, hope to get to it soon.

In the meantime, the (modern experience) MouseScroll activity might help. It has a bunch of useful configuration options.

Thanks,

Hello @gheorghestan ,

Good to hear that. :slightly_smiling_face: and thanks for the update.

Thanks,

Hi @Rahul_Unnikrishnan how you solve that problem?

It’s a shame that table is scrollable not available in new modern view due to which some legacy application can’t perform table extraction correctly as there is no next button. With table scrollable it was automatic. The only way you can solve this by turning off the new features option by deselecting the new features and open Table extraction again which will show the Table is scrollable option and it will work. Not sure why it has been removed as it is a problem. See attached pics.

Hi,

We had no intention to remove this feature. The Table is scrollable option wasn’t included in the first release of the new web-based table extraction experience, which is why we kept the possibility to switch back to the old design. This option specific for tables extracted using Computer Vision has been now added to the new experience starting with UIAutomation v25.10.23.

However, we’ve identified an issue in the Edit extract data dialog: the Table is scrollable toggle appears Off, even when it was previously set to On. This is only a visual/UI issue, the value is correctly saved in the activity and the behavior at runtime is correct.

We’re working on a fix for this, and it will be included in a patch planned for next week.

Best regards,
Luiza

Hi everyone,

The Table is scrollable option is now available in the new table extraction experience, and the latest fix is included in UIAutomation package v25.10.26.
Feel free to give it a try.

Best regards,
Luiza

Thanks a lot for this feature as it is an incredible feature and all is working fine.
