Hi everyone.
When my flow extracting data from a web page reaches the last page, I see the "next page" button (which is not clickable but still present in the html) blinking and the flow cannot complete. How to deal with it?

Hi @Adrecal

In the step that clicks the 'Next Page', click on On Error

Then set it to Continue flow run when an error occurs and Go to next action in the Exception handling mode dropdown list

Phil

Hello!

I am having the same problem, but unfortunately this solution did not work for me. I am using the Action "Extract Data from web page" to grab the different text I need, then identified the pager through the same tool. This is how it looks for me, but the web site just keeps flashing when on the last page. Any ideas?

Don't use the pager functionality in Extract data from web page. It doesn't work with most pages. Build a loop and extract each page individually. See this tutorial for reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvoUBwCqdn0&ab_channel=AndersJensen
