Get image from accounts (dynamically)

Hey Guys,

I really need your help.

I created a bot that scrapes data from our companies employees accounts that are listed in our intranet.

In order to that the bot gets text data which works fine.

I also have to get an image of each employee which is on top of each employees page. But this doesn’t work!

The image is always at the same position of the website. I use a take screenshot activity followed by save image…

The selector normally looks as follows:

I changed it into

Hope you can help me. Thanks in advance :slight_smile:

Hope the idea helps you

  • Download the image by its url

Image downloading by url can be done by several approaches. Have a look here on one option:

for dynamizing a selector have a look here:
