<Group>
    <TreeItem Name="Node0">

    </TreeItem>
    <TreeItem Name="Node1">
        <DataItem Name="Item row 1"/>

I was able to pull it out using the element.Text.

var elements = session.FindElements(By.XPath($"//DataItem"));

foreach(var dataItem in elements)
{
    Console.WriteLine(dataItem.Text);
}

"Repair Exceptions (0)"
"Input Exceptions (0)"
