Answer 1

Have you checked the object "Collections"? That's the standard one that is developed by BluePrism company. It's one of the last objects, when you're scrolling through the list of the objects in "action" block.

Action name is "Count Rows" from standard Blue Prism "Collections" object.

there's a twist, This action requires to have name of collection as an input, instead of whole collection. If your collection is named [Coll1] , then as an input use Coll1 , and it should work. That's really strange design

If your collection name has a space in it such as Collection 1 then you will need to put quotations around this. Eg "Collection 1"

Answer 3

Please check collections under internal objects. There you can find Count Rows.
