Help needed for list variable

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 20

Hi there, 

 

After I did some web scraping action in desktop flow, Data were stored in a variable as table with six column structures as follows.

However, in order to change this to a three-column structure, I would like to insert the data of the fourth, fifth, and sixth columns below the data of the first, second, and third columns. So I tried to create new data table action and then insert rows to data table action as well. 


If the variable name is %ExtractedData%, %ExtractedData[0]% will be the data in the first row, but how do I load the data in the first column instead of the row?

 

Any comments would be appreciated.

    You could try using a "for each" to do this, in which case %ExtractedData[0]% would be all the rows in the first column, hence the first column, rather than the first row. It's a bit counter-intuitive, but if you use a For Each CurrentItem in ExtractedData, then within the loop use CurrentItem[0] to iterate through the first column, it should work!

    Hi @adelevance1 

     

    try this format to retrieve the column specific data 

    %ExtractedData[row][column]%

     

    Example

    %ExtractedData[0][0]%
