Here’s an example of how the “ReadText” activity works –

In the following example, I am going to use the “Notepad” application where it
contains the IP Addresses of the company. Using the “ReadText” activity, I am
going to read and extract the text.

Steps to execute the bot:

1.       Create  a solution named “TextAutomation” or open an existing solution.

2.       Drag and drop the "ReadText" activity onto the designer pane and set
it as the “Start Node.”

3.       Double click on the activity to provide the required inputs.

a.       Here I am providing the “FilePath” as the path of the text file.

4.       Navigating to the “ReadText” in the output of the properties
section to declare a variable to store the extracted value.

a.       There are two methods to store the spied value in the variable.

b.       Method 1: Double-click on the variable parameter in the “Output”
section and enter a name that helps you easily identify it in the flow.
Here, I'm using the name "RD" and using the shortcut key "Ctrl+Q"
to create the variable.

c.       Method 2: Click on the variable pane, enter your preferred name
(here, I'm using "RD"), and choose the data type as "String" since
the output value accepts the string data type.

5.       You can add a write log activity next to the “ReadText” activity to
view the output.

6.       Now, execute the workflow to view the results.

Below is a sample of the output of the activity.
