Issue In Getting 'about' section from Linkedin website

#1

Hey,
I’m trying to extract the “about” section from the linkedin website but the issues pop up when there is ‘see more’ option there. I tried using element exists and image exists activity and pass that output variable in the if loop as a condition where if has to click ‘see more’ and extract the data in ‘then’ and just extract the data in ‘else.’
The issue is it totally skips the element exists activity and goes to the else part.
<html app='chrome.exe' title='* | LinkedIn' /> <webctrl parentid='ember764' tag='A' idx='1' />is the selector for the element exists. When i highlight is, it does that perfectly but when put in the work flow, it dosen’t work.
Could someone please help?
Thank you!

Hi @Amrita_Narayan,
Kindly check the selector of Element Exists Activity . Check the text,aaname,id property of the selector. Use Click text activity for click on see more.

Thanks.

Hi @Amrita_Narayan,

Please remove idx=‘1’ attribute in selector. select other attributes to make the selector stable.

Thanks!

Hi,

Can you try the following selector because " emberXXXX" seems to be changed at every access?

<html app='chrome.exe' title='* | LinkedIn' /> <webctrl tag='A' aaname='see more' />
