HI @Karan_Gupta1

from my knowledge

Data scrapiing extracts only text it cannot extract image

you can try take screen (indiacte the element or coordinates) and save image activities to save the image.

Hi,

In this case, these images are defined as background-image in css file via class.
So I think it’s difficult to get url directly using scraping.
As workaround, first, make dictionary which key is class name and value is image URL in advance, then scrape its class name (as @ppr mentioned) , convert it to url using dictionary.
