Adding data to existing scraped data table

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by jon2249 15

I currently scrape 6 items and is assigned to a variable called TempCCdata and it writes to excel. I want to add a 7th column to the scraped data that says "Disabled". I tried %{[TempCCdata, "Disabled"]}% but it combines the 6 scraped columns into 1 column, and creates column 2 as Disabled. Is there a way to properly add an extra column to an existing variable and write it to excel?

 

I appreciate your assistance. Thanks!

    Hi @jon2249 

    Not sure of the complete requirements you are trying to achieve but also consider writing the datatable to Excel and then adding a Column.

    - Use "Get First Free Column from Worksheet"

    • this will give 6 if you have columns from A to E

    - Write to Excel (on specified cell)

    • Use Column as 6, Row as 1 and Text as "Disabled"

    I have a loop that goes through 4 different scenarios.. The below combines it into one cell

    1 Card has been charged. -> close and go next

    2 Card has been partially Charged. - New Row to extract - Scrape 6 data points and add Partially to column 7

    3 Ready to Charge. - New Row to extract - Scrape 6 data points and add Ready to column 7

    4 Card deactivated. - New Row to extract - Scrape 6 data points and add Deactivated to column 7

     

    I think youroption of First Free Column may work. I have to try it out and see where to plug it in.
