    Hi @Newuser11 I hope you are doing well.

    It seems that your question is about how to pass the correct UI element value from Excel to the web form when dealing with a scenario where the "Other" option opens a dropdown with additional options.

    Here are some steps you might consider:

    1. Identify the Radio Button Value:

      • In your Excel sheet, you may have the value that specifies the radio button option for each row.
    2. Handle "Other" Option:

      • Check if the radio button option is "Other."
      • If it is "Other," extract the corresponding value for the dropdown in your Excel sheet.
    3. Pass Correct UI Element Value:

      • When filling out the web form, use conditions in your Power Automate Desktop workflow.
      • If the radio button option is not "Other," simply select the appropriate radio button.
      • If the radio button option is "Other," first select the "Other" radio button and then select the value from the extracted dropdown options.

    Hope this helps,
