Not getting option for "Get Table" for tables present in web while using Chrome automation

_Amlansahoo — Tue, 02 Jul 2019 05:52:00 GMT

HI All

I m trying to get table elements from a web table using chrome automation(means using Browser mode/UIA mode).

I tried different options but "Get Table" option is not there so I am not able to get a single row also.

Please let me know if any work around is there or not, any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

If you are able to spy a Table item then try this then just change Web Path to stop at TABLE[index], change web element type to TABLE at this moment see if you're able to highlight the Table as whole.

If Yes,then spy some other element on table which will show you all the Element type as shown in screenshot below, then copy all selected attributes of the table element and change type to Table(Web). Then use read stage to Read All Items of table into collection.

I assume you were able to highlight table properly.

Sorry but I've never encountered this issue, the only other way out seems to be that you spy a table item and make Web Path dynamic and loop it over table row.

Hi Amlan,

Although the table seems to be highlighted correctly, it may not be table. It can be some div class before or after the table.

In some cases I get help from Developer Console of Chrome to get correct Xpath/HTML Path of table. It can be determined by searching <table></table> html tag. When Xpath/HTML Path is obtained, you can try on Application Modeller and read stage.

This worked for me in Chrome. The PATH originally ends with /DIV[1] and by adding the TABLE portion to read: /DIV[1]/TABLE[1] and changing the Element Type = Table (Web), and also changing Web Element = TABLE instead of DIV and selecting it. This allows the table to be read with 'Get Table Items' into a collection.

That solution has just worked for me in MS Edge as well, @David Volkov
