Usage Notes
- Use the PAD Data Extraction wizard to set up the initial extraction — this pattern wraps that output with pagination and error handling.
- For dynamic tables (loaded via JavaScript), add a Wait for Element call before the extraction to ensure the table is rendered.
- varNextButtonSelector points to the
- button on paginated web tables — update it for your target site.
- Set varExtractAllPages to False to only extract the current page (useful for testing).
- Check the column count of the first extracted row to validate the table structure before processing.
Requirements
- Power Automate Desktop 2.30+
- An open browser instance with the target page loaded
