Forbidden error

Posted on by 2
Hi all,
maybe some one can help me with frustrating error. I have created a flow in power automate service (not desktop) that:
  • connects to a public webpage www.lb.lt/lt/draudikai-veiklos-rodikliai#ex-1-1 (via http action)
  • saves page body value into current_day variable
  • then gets txt file from OneDrive with previous day information and put that information into previous_day variable 
  • compares two variables and if there is any changes sends an email
  • overwrites previuos_day txt file values with current_day values
 
Super simple flow... but when i test this flow it returns me a Forbidden error. I have added to http action key User-Agent with Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.3
And nothing... same Forbidden error
 
When i try this flow on some other webpages - it works. What can be wrong with www.lb.lt/lt/draudikai-veiklos-rodikliai#ex-1-1 ? Maybe there are some page protections? I'm not that strong on page analysis so I don't see any limitations
Can some one to try to recreate this flow and share with me a solution?

    When I went to that page it gave this Cloudflares "Verifying you are human" screen for a few seconds. 


    So I think there might be some extra security on that site. And since its a banks site its understandable (I'm not expert on this so someone correct me if needed).

    Only thing I can think of is you need to get API for the site or do Power Automate Desktop flow that goes into that site like you would normally.

    Please, people please, stop trying to "explain" your flow
     
    Explain the issue only, nothing else
    Show the flow,
    Explain what you need want.
