Default Web data capture, Pattern Data different pages

I'm trying to capture data from a website which has one page (extends to multiple pages with next button to bring up next section) that is just a list of links to URLs to click on to get to actual data page. I select pattern data capture in first data page but Automation Anywhere won't allow me to go back to the main page to select the next URL for second data page to capture second data sample to establish the pattern.
Can Automation Anywhere only establish a data pattern from two samples on the same page?

Thank You,
Dave

Hello,

Yes, for that you need to run 'Extract Multiple Data' wizard twice. One for the main page containing list of URL's and second for actual data page.

If you can provide URL of website and data to extract from, we can create sample task for your convenience.

Default Website

The website is realtor.com.
My need is to input city,state, price range, and do search for properties. I have been testing with Dallas,TX, 480000,490000 as they provide about 40 listings. I then would like to capture property address, phone number, realtor name and MLS# for each of the properties.
One problem I have is that there are 2 types of property listings. Some have just the above information while others have a link to send email as well. The phone number and realtor name are also in different locations on the two formats. The only way I can tell the difference from the index page is that the first type has a light gray background while the second has a gold background.
Thank you for any help you can give.

Dave
