HTTP GET That retruns HTML content after script

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 4

I am trying to use HTTP GET Action that would return the tracking data from Fedex Tracking Website. 

 

It seems that the page loads after a script runs when the URL is entered. So the result of HTTP GET would be an HTML document with JavaScript and not the actual page with the tracking data. Normally I would input the following URL in a browser and I used HTTP GET URI https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/ and tracknumbers as a Query.

 

Is there a way to wait for the HTML document to load before returning the result of HTTP GET or this can only be done in a browser? 

 

https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/?tracknumbers=xxxxxxxxxxxx

    Hi @SSM-SPARX ,

     

    Thank you for your reply. I understand what you mean now, but I am afraid that such a requirement cannot be achieved through Power Automate.

    In Power Automate, we can delay the execution of the next step by adding a Delay action between the two steps.

    And your need seems to be to add a delay in the middle of the HTTP request. Unfortunately, Power Automate does not currently support such a feature and I am not able to provide a suitable method to solve this problem.

     

    Best Regards,

    It seems my screenshot didn't go through.

     

    I have only one step adding a delay before it will not help me. 

    The below returns the HTML of the page before the script runs, I am asking for the possibility of adding a delay within this step.

    Hi @SSM-SPARX ,

     

    I am afraid that I could not understand your needs.

    Maybe you could add Delay action to wait for the HTML document to load before returning the result of HTTP GET.

     

    Best Regards,
