I used the populate text field on the web page as attached. However, the web only shows the first 6 digits while the data in my Excel sheet has 10 digits. What can I do for this? Thank you so much for reading this an

Have you checked that the CurrentItem['Account'] is 10 digits long or is it only 6?
Also check that the web page element doesn't have cap for only 6 digits. Or that it allows all the digits your PAD is trying to write (so if there is special characters like dash or something)
So to troubleshoot try writing manually the 10 digits on the web page element.

Hi @sagtomer2 ,

Please find the attached solution.
As per my understanding you want only first 6 digits from the excel data to Populate on the web.
Please split the input from excel as shown in below image.
