    Hello,

     

    If you are able to extract text from one webpage and click on the Pager than your UI-elements are correct but your PAD flow is not.

    You should use a for each loop to extract each page and write it to a variable, see an example of my flow below.

    You can see that I start with a loop, why? You want to do an action multiple times: go to the next page and extract details.

     

    Action 11: loop, 280 gives the amount of pages i want to extract, in your case 43

    12: extract pages (your step 3):

    13: wait until page is fully loaded (can be skipped but helps the flow run better)

    14: click on pager

    16: start for each to write extracted data to a table

    17: add each extracted data to a table.

    18: end loop adding value to a table (this table has to be declared outside of your loop, for me activity 10 i have: create new list/table, whatever you like, i would Advice list.

    19: end loop.

     

    This loop will run 280 times, so it will extract a page, click on pager. And extract the next page, click on pager for a total amount of 280 times. 

    And each time it has extracted a page it writes the extracted values to a List, you have to do this otherwise you lose your extracted values from each page and will be left at the end only with the last extracted page.

     

    This should give you an insight on what to do or how you can approach it.

     

    Good luck.

    You could always message me for more help 🙂
