Hi Yannick,
It seems like the articles are loaded dynamically, try setting useBrowser
to true
.
Let me know if it helps. Thanks!
Thank you, now it does work! Would it be wise to always setting useBrowser to true? Are there any drawbacks except for it being expensive?
Awesome, glad to hear :D Browser search is slower compared to non-browser search, which makes it more expensive. There are no other drawbacks, only advantages like the ability to scrape dynamic web pages (your case), at the sacrifice of speed. Happy scraping!
You can set it to true only if the initial scrape will not work. That way you first scrape all sites with the cheaper method and only fallback to browser
Hey! Thank you for your reply! Where can I find that option? I don't see it under the 'browser options' section.
It is there 'Use Browser (Puppeteer)'
Ah i see, I thought you had to specifically set it as a fallback, but as I understand it now that's how it always works then.
