Example: Retrieving the Total Number of Values in a List or Dropdown

In this example, we are explaining how to get the total number of items available in a dropdown or list component.

• Action: Get count

• Input Value: N/A

  • This action does not require any value in the Input Value column. It automatically detects the captured list or dropdown element.

• Output Value: {Count}

  • The total number of items present in the list or dropdown (5) is stored in the {Count} dynamic variable.

  • If a second output variable is defined, it stores the action status with the following possible values:

    • True: If the list or dropdown count is retrieved successfully.

    • False: If the list or dropdown count is not retrieved successfully.

• Logical Explanation: The Get count action identifies the captured dropdown or list element and calculates how many items are available in it. The final count (5) is stored in the {Count} variable.
