Brief description

This step updates the value of a specific cell within an existing data table. It allows users to modify data dynamically by selecting a specific row and column and replacing the current value with a new one.

Step Information

Step name (Not required) – the custom name of the process step that labels the editor’s process step box

Input parameters

• Data Table (Required) – specifies the existing data table variable that contains the cell to be updated.
  Once the data table is selected, its column names are loaded dynamically and become available for selection in the Column dropdown list.
• Column (Required) – selects the column where the value will be updated. The dropdown displays all column names from the selected data table
• New Value (Required) – specifies the new value to be inserted into the chosen cell.
  The value can be a static text, numeric value, or variable.
• Row Index (Required) – defines the position (index) of the row to be updated. The index is zero-based, meaning the first row has an index of 0.

Additional comments

This step is used to modify individual data points within an existing data table during automation.
After selecting the Data Table, the list of available columns is displayed dynamically, ensuring accurate selection and preventing input errors.
Make sure that the Row Index and Column combination exists in the table; otherwise, the update operation will not be executed.
This feature is particularly useful when adjusting intermediate results, updating records, or preparing structured data for export or further processing.
