Open a Webpage Detail with different url

Hi experts

I'm using Web Automation for the first time. At least on the SAP side. I am quite fond of Webautomation but worked mainly with C# and Selenium. 

My company asked to fetch data from a website. There i have to navigate to a page with a paginated list of Webelements and for each i need to open the corresponding Detailspage. The Detailspage always has the url in this format "root-url\details\xxx", where "xxx" is a given id associated with the webelement. From there i have to fetch some infos for further usage. Nothing really complicated. 

Now, I am quite lazy and don't want to handle pagination and I always try to reduce the automaton steps, since each extra step increases the risk of errors. So, my idea is to fetch the id's that i need and directly navigate to the page i need by just adding the id to my url.   This website allows users to download a report with the id's that i need as csv. So i'll use that as my starting point. Now, i need to directly navigate to the details pages.

With Selenium it is quite straightforward, though in SAP RPA i'm quite confused how to do it. I've already recorded the pages i need and would just need to tell the RPA to navigate to the url i need. 

Can someone help me out? Are there other resources i can read?

 

Ty in advance
