Building a B2B Lead Generation Bot | UiPath RPA & Google Maps

[@EricIrizarry]

Thanks for the video. I'm having problems at minute 9:27 of this video. When I go to select the title, it won't let me select just the title. It selects the whole little box for the company selected including phone number, rating, address, website link, and directions link. Any ideas on how to fix this?

[@oumaimabenkhalifa9946]

same problem

[@djberniboyberni5588]

same here

[@rakhijain9516]

Yes, Earlier It was picking up the specific text but seems like now It selects the entire box. However, you can open every item and then scrape the data (address etc), then again go back and do the same for rest of the items. you can watch this video for reference( kzbin.info/www/bejne/jX-ZdZ-Cnqh2gcU)

Great video! I got stuck @ "no results found" as I don't get that screen the chevron is simply not highlighted anymore and it continues to re-loop through the last page. Is there another way to stop the loop when it gets to the last page?

Hi Leon, currently both Get Text & "No Results Found" option is not working for Google. I can't select company name & contact etc, entire element is getting selected, also at the last page next arrow is getting disabled but no results found is not coming. Is there any better option to do this based on current google search page?

[@i3oomiizz]

Thank you Leon, I'm your student in Udemy Course and I try to create this assignment but I can't using GetText to get the company name and telephone no.

[@unathimatu]

THIS IS AWESOME great work, I just started out with UiPath and RPA in general I was wonderinghow you would comple this exact same task in the open source RPA python library or Automagica. I appreaciate your work.

[@mrakoo7oo]

how can we also take website url?

[@tahirarpack6464]

That is Great Job.. Well Done! I could'nt see url in UI Explorer, there is a title instead of url.. So I coundt change the rest of url to * . Please Help me :D

[@LeonPetrou]

It should still work with the title.

[@Chezky770]

This tutorial doesn't work anymore, as Google maps has switched to endless scrolling instead of pagination.

[@suk1n520]

any solutions to that?

[@Chezky770]

@suk1n520 Yes it's complicated but possible, Leon said he would try to work on an updated tutorial at some point. 🤷‍♂️

Hi, I am actually doing a project like this but I want to get also the addresses. How can I send a click to the "companyname" ? A popup will appear beside it containing the relevant details and that's where I want to scrape the datas

[@leonpetrou319]

Hello :) I have a video where we build a custom data extractor which clicks into each listing. Here is the video on that: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jX-ZdZ-Cnqh2gcU You can apply the same logic to Google Maps and then use a Get Text to scrape the address.

[@heathengaming8461]

Hi. Its me again. When i reached the last page, it doesnt show the "no results found" so i cant use the element exist activity. What happens when i reach the last page, the next chevron is already unclickable/disable. Do you have suggestion on what activity i should use to detect if the next button is disable?

[@LeonPetrou]

@@heathengaming8461 Let the bot run with Simulate Type set to true, then it will click the next button in the background and the "No results found" message will show.
