Hi all,
I tried to data scrap after closing the website.
Validation seems to be the problem EXTRACTED DATA STRCTURE FOR DIV

Hi @xyzxyz_123
I did not get your issue reported here. Here some comments on my understanding:
If you close the browser before the the Extraction, UiPath will not be able to find the element and hence, it won´t be able to extract the table. The extraction activity requires the element (table) exists.

I ran the first time after with the website open and it ran perfectly. I just want to test whether we can run it with website closed, then I have encountered the problem. My question is do we have to keep the browser open everytime we extract the data? Can we do any change in the selectors to make it run.
Hi @xyzxyz_123
After closing the website UiPath will not able to find the element. so it will not able to extract the data. it require the table exists.

Hi @xyzxyz_123
It is necessary to have the browser open, the Web Scrapping is still a UiElement interaction, and it requires the element exist to do so. If you have doubts in the future, you can check on the activities panel the Extract Estructured Data is under UI Automation category, most of activities there requires a selector and hence, requires the element exist.
Bests,
Andres
