Writing data to Excel

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by TerryHayward

I am completely new to PAD and just trying to learn from forums and YouTube.

 

I have a list of web addresses from manufacture (I think these are called API) stored in excel which provide stock updates for products I sell.

 

I have managed to make a loop which collects the info and writes back to column F in the excel sheet, but instead of moving down to next row ie F2, it replaces the value to F1.

 

Not sure if I have even made the flow correctly.

 

I would be really grateful for any help

Thanks Terry

    You need an index variable in there. Set it to 1 initially by using Set variable before the loop. Then inside the loop, use Increase variable to increment it by 1 in each iteration. Finally, use the index variable as the row to write to in your Write to Excel worksheet action. This will make it write to a new row in each iteration.
