How do I make the robot go to page 3 and continue scraping data?

Hi @technix,

Please test this: enter http://localhost/robocop/page/3/ into the browser. Does it goes to page 3?

Yes, it goes to page 3.

Followed all the instructions to the core with no error. It scrapes page 1 and page 2 very well. But does not go beyond page 2 while there are more pages that has data in page 3 and 4. How do I make it continue? Below is my page navigation buttons on https://localhost/robocop link of which UiPath’s scraping activity gets very well till page 2 only.

And here is how my “NextLink Selector” looks like;

pls change the navigation numbers& href page/number/ as dynamic selector…
