How to deal with Linkedin dynamic selectors?

Hello there,

I saw many topics about data scrapping on Linkedin who doesn’t help me and I remember doing similar exercise on my Advanced certificate but can retrieve my project.
Linkedin have dynamic selectors. If you want to get profile name, you will have something like this :

<webctrl idx='2' parentid='ember59' tag='DIV' />

and 10 min later something like this :

<webctrl idx='1' parentid='ember61' tag='LI' />

Btw, you can’t use wildcard on idx or parentId because everything change everytime and your Get Text will get no information.

How can I get some profile information ? What activity should I use? Have you ever used or seen an example?

Thanks, regards

Can anyone help me please ?

use starlike symbol (*) instead of idx

If parentid is changing, don’t use parentid. Use something else. And I don’t think tag would ever change. DIV and LI are two very different things. I suspect you’ve accidentally clicked two different elements when getting the above two selectors.

Hi @Maxime_Bonis
Have you tried on Find Text Position Activity
And pass the element to click activity for clicking
