We're updating some of our product names. Nintex Kryon RPA will soon be Nintex RPA. You may see both product names in our help pages while we make this change.

Using Read from Screen

Using Read from screen and maximizing its accuracy requires providing the robot with a specific set of instructions:

Changing the step's core action to Read from screen.
Identifying a static text near the read location that the robot uses to identify the location from which it should read. This is called the field label.
Identifying a specific location (field) on the screen from which the robot should read the value. This location is identified by the field box.
Identifying the type of value the robot should read. This is called the value type.
Specifying the variable into which the robot should store the value it has read. The wizard can then use this value later in one or more Advanced Commands.
