The following example illustrates on how we can use the clear clipboard value activity to clear the last copied item to the clipboard. This activity is a continuity of the get clipboard value activity.
Example:
1.Drag and drop a clear clip board activity below the message box.
2.Drag and drop another get clipboard activity below the message box to retrieve the data from the clipboard. Declare the same variable given in the earlier get clip board activity tab. Here it is “Output”
3.Drag and drop another message box below the get clipboard activity to see if the latest clipboard value has been cleared. Pass the same variable given in the get clip board activity. Here it is “Output”
4.Execute the activity.
The bot has executed the activity and cleared the recent clipboard value which is displayed in the message box.
