Scroll upto end

Help

Hello there!
I’m facing some issue with the data scraping,

  1. There is no paging on the webpage, we need to scroll down for the more data.
  • I need to scroll at the end of the page and stop the process if there is no more data.
    I hope this is clear

Dear,

We can achieve this by dowhile loop, place a unique identifier and put a condition in do while.

Inside the do while put a hotkey down, so that whenever the unique identifier not found it will execute the down key.

Hope this helps you

Thanks

Welcome to the uipath community.

Is BOT able to scrape entire data or not ? Just indicate that data without indicating next page reference button and then check once

Hello @ifenilpatel, Have you tried using screen scraping with “Full Text” scraping type? It works for “page-less” data extraction.

@BenMar Actually I’ve to use data scraping only. as per my thread, I have done all page scrolling using do-while loop and JS file. but im not sure what’s wrong with my code my CSV file generated empty.

@ifenilpatel haev you tried using “Output Data table” activity and “Write line” activity to see if the data is actually being extracted?

*solution - Using While loop and one JS file

Thank you, guys.
