This isn't really a full answer, but it may get you started.

As you can see here,, ALA supports xpath and has an xml parser built it. If you can use that, it will make everything much easier and avoid the need to convert and extract. As far as I can tell, ALA doesn't have an html parser.

The problem is that the html you posted is not a valid xml. For example, the <meta> nodes aren't closed and the whole thing doesn't have a root node. If these are fixed and you have a valid xml, using the templates in that link can easily output what you need.

For example

xpath([your valid xmlstring],'//tr/td[./p//span[./text()="Bot Name "]]/following-sibling::td/p//span[@style="color:black"]/text()')

should output:

Route U2K2 -CR

Similarly,

xpath([your valid xmlstring],'//tr/td[./p//span[./text()="Bot Overview "]]/following-sibling::td/p//span[@style="color:black"]/text()')

should output:

BOT to process all the SR's raised in remedy for Route U2K2.

etc. As I said, not a complete answer...

After converting html to text, you can use substring('<text>', <startIndex>, <length>) to get the value you want.

Before you use substring('<text>', <startIndex>, <length>), you need to get <startIndex>and <length> first.

To get startIndex

You can use indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot ID') to get the index of Bot ID, then use add(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot ID'),6) to get the index behind Bot ID.

To get length

You can use indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot Name') to get the index of Bot Name, then use sub(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot Name'),add(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot ID'),6)) to get the length.

The expression like this:

substring(variables('var'),add(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot ID'),6),sub(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot Name'),add(indexOf(variables('var'),'Bot ID'),6)))

The design is like this:

I did a test:

Note

The text has \n to start a newline, so you need to adjust the value of the startIndex and length according to your own text.
