This is my element that i got from Inspect Element

```auto
<a data-bind="attr: {href: $.rootDir + 'Manage/UserDetail/?id=' + id()}" href="/akki/Manage/UserDetail/?id=0135af0c-7b32-4645-9677-c3e4b8ddaebb"><i class="ion ion-edit" title="Ubah"></i></a>

</div>

as xpath you can use:

```auto
//a[contains(@href,'0135af0c-7b32-4645-9677-c3e4b8ddaebb')]

mnn, but this is a dynamic id, so i want to get the id and put into variabel so i can click based on the dynamic id.

This is the link from the button, i wanna get the id from the link

ok, that’s different question than 1st one  
you need to parse it or get it from attribute
