A data table is a tabular form of data structure. It contains rows and each row has columns, for example:
| Student name | Roll number | Class |
| Andrew Jose | 1 | 3 |
| Jorge Martinez | 2 | 3 |
| Stephen Cripps | 3 | 2 |
The preceding illustration is an example of a data table that has three rows and three columns. You can build a data table in UiPath also.
A data table is used for various purposes. Say, for example, you have to build a table dynamically. You can use a data table as your preferred choice. A data table is also extensively used to store tabular data structures. In data scraping, data tables are widely used. Data scraping is a method in which we can dynamically create tabular data records of search items on the web.
We shall build two projects in which we will use a data table:
- Building a data table
- Building a data table using data scraping (dynamically)
