we want to create our own foreach activity or only pass datatable name

we are using inbuilt system foreachworkflow activity in below image.

but our requirement to not use AsEnumerable after datatable name only we need to pass datatable name but it is expecting AsEnumerable it is system activity how can we modify or how can we create this foreach loop activity in work flow.

if it will modify this is also fine otherwise need to go with create custom loop activity similar this.

If you want to create your own custom foreach activity in a workflow without using the AsEnumerable method on a datatable, you can follow these steps:

Create a custom activity class that inherits from NativeActivity.
Add the necessary properties to your custom activity class, such as the input datatable property.
Override the Execute method of the NativeActivity class.
Within the Execute method, access the input datatable property and loop through its rows.
Perform the required actions within the loop.

Here's an example of how you can create a custom foreach activity in a workflow using the NativeActivity class:

using System.Activities;
using System.Data;

public class CustomForEachActivity : NativeActivity
{
    public InArgument DataTable { get; set; }

    protected override void Execute(NativeActivityContext context)
    {
        // Get the input datatable
        DataTable dataTable = context.GetValue(this.DataTable);

        // Perform the custom foreach loop
        foreach (DataRow row in dataTable.Rows)
        {
            // Perform actions on each row
            // ...

            // You can access column values using row[columnName]
            // For example: string value = row["ColumnName"].ToString();
        }
    }
}
