Data Scraping failed as soon as the website is refreshed or re-launched

Help

Hi All,

I am trying to work with a structured data table on a website. I used the data scraping and scraped the data from the website, if I tested it immediately, I can have the data table with no problem. However, if I close everything and re-launch the website or if I just simply refresh the website, the data scrape will give me an empty data table.

Have any of you experiences this before and do you know how to handle it?

Thanks in advances for all your help!

When data scraping, please attach to the browser first and then use the data scraping wizard.

And please update the selector by removing the unwanted attributes.

Hi there,

That unfortunately doesn’t work as it still returns an empty DataTable.
The weird thing is that when going into Edit Selector, it still validates and highlights the correct section of the website.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

Thanks

Hi there, I am experiencing the exact same issue.

The weird thing is that after refreshing the page, and then going into Edit Selector for the Data Scraping, it still validates and highlights the correct section of the website, but it still returns an empty DataTable.

Did you manage to fix this?

Thanks
