Here's an example of how the DatatabletoHtmlfile activity works –

In the following example, I am using the “Excel sheet” which is used to automate
in the Use case. To get a better understanding, click here.

1.       Drag and drop the " DatatabletoHtmlfile " activity onto the designer pane.

a.       It helps to convert the “Datatable” to “HTML” file which can be used to import
to the websites.

b.       Here I am extracting the output as “Datatable” from the “Excel sheet” using the
“ReadRanges” activity from the “Excel Automation.” (Refer the Use case to get
detailed information).

i.            “JoinedTable” is the output for the “datatable” which is declared here.

c.       Navigating to the “AuthorName” from the properties of the “DatatabletoHtmlfile”
to specify the “Name” in which the “Htmlfile” needs to be stored. Here I am using
“FinalData” as the name of the file.

d.       Then moving to the “Datatable” property to provide the input to convert the
datatable.

i.      Here I am using the datatable “JoinedTable” extracted as output from the “Excel
sheet”.

e.       At last, moving to the “Filepath” property to specify the location path to store the
“htmlfile.”

i.            Here I am providing the location path from the system folder.

ii.            Note that the path must be specified along with the name of the file at the end.

iii.            Here I have specified as “\FinalData” at the end.

2.       Now, I am executing the workflow to convert the “datatable” and store it as
“Htmlfile”.

3.       Once the bot has been completed,  double click on the “html file” to view
the table on the browser.

(Below is the sample of the “datatable” that has been convertedto “Html file”)
