My coding is working on an application web-base type as attached photo, the data set shown like table but it coding not base on HTML code. I tried to use command ‘Extract UI table text’, but resulting capture whole UI screen (Internet explorer).

Do we have another way to capture text like these one ?

  1. If this is displayed inside of the webbrowser(IE) you will have to use html commands and not UI table
    1. Have you tried Get Html table? https://help.nintex.com/en-US/kryonrpa/22.9.1/Content/AdvancedCommands/HTMLCommands/Get_HTML_Table.htm?Highlight=html
    2. Also, if IE does not provides you the expect results, Have you tried using google chrome with the Nintex RPA Extension installed in google chrome?
  2. Alternatively, you could use Read From Screen: Native

Thank a lot @fguaragna
I used choice 2 as Read from screen.
For first, Robot can’t extract HTML table on the screen.
