Hi Henil,

 

Thank you for posting on our forum.

 

If I understand your requirement, Datasource loop is the best option you have. The loop goes through the value only once and when it reaches the 150th value in your excel sheet the loop automatically stops.

 

To test, just try it with first ten values, check the transaction log once you run the test case. It should provide you with the passed tokens information.

 

If this doesn't help, please open a support ticket, I can investigate further on your issue.

 

Best,

Lakshmi

    Hi Lakshmi,

     

    The requirement is not about the loop since I'll be using that token once per day only, when I come back to work on next day and re-open the project, it should start from token no.2. That is the scenario I'm facing right now.
