I think if you could share more details of your BOT setup , community could help better.

Bot setup is a simple workflow, but I am pulling the data from the parent-child table. I assume the child table doesn't writre the values that's why I get a blank pdf.
The expression is below.
<<START:[Related Orders]>><<DETAILID>><<ORDERID>><<[PRODUCTCODE]>><<[PRODUCTCODE].[PRODUCTNAME]>><<[QTY]>><<END>>

Dear @Suvrutt_Gurjar, I followed the instructions, and the automation works flawlessly.
Thank you.

Hi,
while trying to solve my own issue (which seems to be similar to the one in this topic) I followed the link but it seems to be broken. It takes me to the help homepage.

This is the new one:

Although I'm not sure your problem is the same, since in your case not only the Start: expressions are not showing the results and it worked before
