Another exceptional video as there is very little on error handling and this helps so much - thanks again i have saved this as part of my RPA learning the only item I had to add was a terminate process of Excel at the start as being a Windows 11 and Office 365 insider for some reason Excel is held open in background processes but as as soon as I set to terminate at start the flow works without issue

Very excellent tutorial. One point I’m confused on. When you set variables like ‘result’ why does that actually get written to excel.

I took the PL-500 exam and scored 707. Barely pass. It is a difficult exam to me. There were quite a lot steps ordering questions and 2 scenario questions. Many words to read😂 I also need to determine whether it is the best option to do a certain flow under a scenario. 😮 really out of my expectation. The learning material for PL-500 does not provide the core part of the exam. I spent most of my time on reading the materials... Hopefully I can learn more from your videos to enhance my PAD skill Subscribed.❤

Hello Anders, thanks for your videos. Please read my case and give me feedback. My case: I created a PAD Flow, then I used it in a PA Cloud Flow, I shared this PA Cloud Flow to my coworker as an user. He could run my flow but he also could copy the flow and then he could see my step by step, my variables, and it is supposed that these must be confidential. Do you know if I can limit an user to just run a share flow but not to copy it? Sorry about my english if I had errors.

Hello Anderson, Thanks for the wonderful teaching.. I have a Question here i saw your web scraping videos handling with dynamic link to copy and paste. Is that possible to download the multiple pdfs in the same page with random dynamic value.. unable to achieve that task. Tried multiple option by using loop conditions it doesn't work. In my case dynamic value is __link13 ,__link15 ,,, some time it starts with __link3 __Link5,,, can you suggest some solution to click the pdfs directly one by one sine my first pdf element is dynamic also the other pdf are dynamic. Need to download and want it to sabe in unique folders

For this to work all of the code in the loop has to be inside the block. If the loop has multiple actions the errors can occur in multiple actions. How is this handled?
