Hi @KPrasanth9

If you are reading from a set of fields then you'll need to read the individual values into a Data Item and then use the Internal - Collection Manipulation VBO to send the value from the Data Item to the Collection, one by one.

If you are reading a HTML table, for example, then you should be able to send the entire table to a collection in one go.

Hi Thanks for the inputs but this haven't resolved my issue,

I was trying to access https://xe.com/ and trying to get the currency type into collection directly.
The current collection which I have taken is an empty collection and wanted to add the values to collection I have tried to use utility collection manipulation and used set collection field.
Please help me up in guiding.
Thanks,

Hi @KPrasanth9

Have you tried using the calculation stage to store the value into the Collection instead of using a nested Action stage within your object? You can use a Calculation stage (or Multi-Calc depending on your current use) in order to update a Collection. However, do remember when adding to an empty Collection, you need to use the 'Add Row' action from within the Collections object.
