Hello everyone,

I need your help with something.

I am building a desktop flow to go to a website, log on and navigate to a page with notifications and export those notifications to an excel.

The flow works everything that should be pressed is being pressed and the destination page is being reached, but there are no notifications.

It could be that there are no notifications, but I checked and it its not the case, when I do the same process the flow is doing manually the notifications are there and can be seen.

This is the website in question (https://portaldocontribuinte.minfin.gov.ao/) but you need credentials to log on, but if anyone knows why this happens or has experienced something similar and knows how to solve it I would really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Can you share your desktop flow please? If you are successfully logging in and navigating to the notifications page, the root cause is in the extract data action(s). It may be setup but not correctly capturing anything as you described. How to check:

Go to the desktop flow and check the output of the action.

In this snippet below, when I run this flow (and scrape data off a webpage), the extracted data will be stored in the variables. Below I am capturing a few details from a webpage. What are the values stored in your notification variables?

Thank you for your answer trice602,

Maybe I didn't explain myself properly, the notifications aren't there if I navigate to the notifications page through the flow.

But if I manually perform the actions on my computer with the mouse and keyboard the notifications are there, I don't know why that could be
