CSS selector for next page

Hi,

I have a problem with how to properly set the CSS selector for the next page.

CSS selector for the next page is different because it depends on the number of the current page.

If I am on Page #1

CSS selector for the next page is:

html > body > div:eq(2) > main > div:eq(2) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(7) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li:eq(6) > a

If I am on Page #3

CSS selector for the next page is:

html > body > div:eq(2) > main > div:eq(2) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(7) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li:eq(7) > a

If I am at Page #4 and above

CSS selector for the next page is:

html > body > div:eq(2) > main > div:eq(2) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(7) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li:eq(8) > a

Also, I tried with option Set element as pager but it is the same situation.

div[id="amasty-shopby-product-list"] > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li:eq(6) > a, html > body > div:eq(2) > main > div:eq(2) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(7) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li:eq(6) > a

Is there any way to solve this situation?

Thank you for sharing your expertise and help.

Dejan

Right now your selector is dependent on the amount of pages in the list.

You will probably have to input a custom selector that relies on the arrow icon. If you press CTRL+SHIFT+C in your browser, the developer tools will open in inspection mode, and once you click the NEXT arrow, you will be able to see how it is placed in the page's code.

(My guess is that) You must then remove the :eq(x) part of the li:eq(x) and add the arrow to the selector. Typically something like this. Look at the ending:

html > body > div:eq(2) > main > div:eq(2) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(7) > div:eq(0) > div:eq(3) > ul > li > a[class="icon-arrowright"]

Play around with it... If it is a public website, you could share the address.

Hi, I am having exactly the same problem while extracting data from Trip advisor using power automate. Whil it is picking the data very well for page 1, the pager command for next page is not working. I need your help to solve it.

Am sharing the page link, for which i need the data, its right now 4 pages, but the same can be much higher.
