This is not a real property of any web page. It is injected by the Power Automate extension to your browser, so that it can actually interact with the page. It will usually be true.

Why would you need to extract it?

Hi Agnius,
Thank you for the quick response.
I should have given more detail.
I have a Power Automate desktop Flow
In the flow I have created an UI element
Normally I can just use the normal CSS to navigate to the part I need.
So if I use Action Get details of element on web page with the UI element and Attribute name Own Text or HRef as required, that works perfectly well.
In this current requirement that I tried to explain above😁
I noticed the "token" as above looked like something that might be useful. But I don't know how the extract the value of the token = winautomationvisibilitylandmark.

I'm sure I haven't explained sell enough, so if you don't mind, prompt me for more explanation.

It doesn't work well with custom attributes. The only way to do it properly would be to use Get details of web page to retrieve the page source and then parse it.

But, really, this parameter is completely useless in most cases. You cannot really use it much. As mentioned, it's not part of the page itself. It's something that PAD itself (in combination with its browser extension) injects into the page. I honestly see no reason why you would ever want to extract it.

In a web-page there are numerous bands, each band can be expanded or collapsed.
Inside each band is a table
Initially the detail of the table does not appear in the inspect elements.
Once expanded the table elements will appear in the inspect. listing
and then Extract the necessary table values.

So I use this in the UI element....
...... section[Class="markets"] > ul[Class="table-group flush--bottom"] > li:eq(%Selector_li%) > h2[Class$="closed"]

I use the action Get details of element on web page
If it fails then the band is open and continues,else then I need to CLICK on the UI and then proceed.

So I was just wondering whether using the token "data-toggle-visible-state" would work.

Thanks once again
Regards
Craig
