Web Extraction CSS selector content

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by ttyc 2

Hello all,

 

There is a tutorial about how to extract the data from different elements from the web page.

Power Automate Desktop - Web Extraction Part 1 | Price extraction from web page - YouTube

 

I had a quick test in my environment, however I couldn't find the right content of CSS Selector at minute 3:12.

The original content of the selector is: a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:eq(3)

(As you can see in the video, the product that doesn't have a promo price would be blank)

I modified the content to: a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:contains("$")

And it would show me the full price of all products.

What I want is the current price, and it should be flexible field as you can see in the video.

Could somebody help me please? Thanks!

    Hello @ttyc ,

    Instead of using: a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:contains("$") 

    try to use:

    a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span[content^="$"]

    As you can see from the below screenshot, the CSS element "Content" that starts with ''$" matches for the price of all products

    I hope this helps!

    Is there a way to accommodate multiple CSS selectors for the same value - so that if one selector element has no value or is empty, the value gets picked automatically from the second fallback CSS selector. In short, can we have something like this in the CSS selector field:

     

    a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:eq(3) OR a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:eq(2)

    a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:eq(3) | a > div:eq(1) > div > div > span:eq(2) > span:eq(2)

    Try separating your selectors with COMMA (,)
