Posted on 2 Jan 2024 17:30:19 by

Hello!

I would like to know how I could extract images from this INMET website: https://clima.inmet.gov.br/

I have to select the options and click on "Gerar Imagem" for the image to appear. Every month I have to do the manual work of downloading. I think to automate it, it would have to be via Power Automate Desktop. I created a flow, but it is very dependent on the position of things on the screen. If I could automate it through the site's HTML... but I don't know how to do it with this one specifically, as the "inspect element" doesn't work as well as it does on other sites. I don't know what's different about this site.

I appreciate if anyone could help me.

    The image is stored as a base64 encoded string:

    You need to extract the value by using Get details of element in web page and capturing the <image> element. Extract the "alt src" parameter.

     

    When you have that, you can use Convert base64 to file to convert the string to a valid file on your machine.
