Element

Fetching element data is one of the most frequently used operation options. It is often used to obtain webpage elements and then save them as variables. The saved variables can be used in operation options that support "using variables*".

We can get an element on a web page and store it into a variable to access it later.

Extraction type

For example, HTML as follows:

Text

Enter ". a-cardui-header" as the selector to locate the block <div class="a-cardui-header"> and extract the text inside, such as "AdsPower" and "RPA is excellent".

Object

Enter ". a-cardui-header" as the selector to locate the web elements in the blue box, extract it as an object and save it to a variable.

Suppose we name this variable as "button", we can perform more operations on "button". Such as:

- Extract other data from it.

- Click on this "button"

iFrame

Use Case

Similar to extracting objects, a webpage element can be saved as an iframe object, which is essentially an element object. Other RPA operation options can interact with this element object, and you can continue to extract other types of data (text, objects, etc.) from the iframe object.

For example, extract the text from an iframe object named my_iframe.

Html

Enter ". a-cardui-header" as the selector to locate the web elements in the blue box, which is the child element of <div class="a-cardui-header">.

Attribute

Enter "trans" as the selector to extract attribute value. Enter "data-src" as the attribute name and you will get "adspower".

Child Element

Enter "h2" as the selector to locate the element in the blue box. Enter "trans" as the child element name and the "trans" child element will be stored as an object.

Focused Element

We can store a focused element into a variable.

For example, the search box is focused now.

The first column header must be serial_number. As mentioned in the example above, fill in 802 and 803.
