Hi Community,

Probably this problem is easy, but I can't figure out how to resolve it. Can you help me?

I have would like to optimize my flow as follows:

if a specific cell (excel) is not empty, apply some actions;
otherwise, continue flow

Thank you in advance!

Please follow the below proposed solution for the same. In the if condition I've mentioned the specific cell to validate.
Code:
Excel.LaunchExcel.LaunchAndOpenUnderExistingProcess Path: $'''C:\\Users\\Documents\\Holidays.xlsx''' Visible: True ReadOnly: False Instance=> ExcelInstance
Excel.ReadFromExcel.ReadAllCells Instance: ExcelInstance ReadAsText: False FirstLineIsHeader: True RangeValue=> ExcelData
IF IsEmpty(ExcelData[5][0]) THEN
Display.ShowMessageDialog.ShowMessage Title: $'''tet''' Message: $'''Apply some action''' Icon: Display.Icon.None Buttons: Display.Buttons.OK DefaultButton: Display.DefaultButton.Button1 IsTopMost: False ButtonPressed=> ButtonPressed
ELSE
Display.ShowMessageDialog.ShowMessage Title: $'''tet''' Message: $'''Continue other actions''' Icon: Display.Icon.None Buttons: Display.Buttons.OK DefaultButton: Display.DefaultButton.Button1 IsTopMost: False ButtonPressed=> ButtonPressed
END

Included for each to iterate all the rows:

Code:

Excel.LaunchExcel.LaunchAndOpenUnderExistingProcess Path: $'''C:\\Users\\Documents\\Holidays.xlsx''' Visible: True ReadOnly: False Instance=> ExcelInstance
Excel.ReadFromExcel.ReadAllCells Instance: ExcelInstance ReadAsText: False FirstLineIsHeader: True RangeValue=> ExcelData
LOOP FOREACH CurrentItem IN ExcelData
IF IsEmpty(CurrentItem[0]) THEN
Display.ShowMessageDialog.ShowMessage Title: $'''tet''' Message: $'''Apply some action''' Icon: Display.Icon.None Buttons: Display.Buttons.OK DefaultButton: Display.DefaultButton.Button1 IsTopMost: False ButtonPressed=> ButtonPressed
ELSE
Display.ShowMessageDialog.ShowMessage Title: $'''tet''' Message: $'''Continue other actions''' Icon: Display.Icon.None Buttons: Display.Buttons.OK DefaultButton: Display.DefaultButton.Button1 IsTopMost: False ButtonPressed=> ButtonPressed
END
END
