Tried data scraping a website. I want to extract its URL but its not working. Do you have any suggestions on what to use except data scraping for this? Column2 is the extracted URL

Hey @prititit
Find children or get attribute could be the alternative.

have a look here:
This HowTo introduces on how Data scraping can be configured to retrieve also on non standard information from a web table.

Maybe the link is of type like:
<a href="#" onclick="myJsFunc();">Link</a>
