Annoyingly my council's bin collection site uses the same ID for two types of collections on the same page and no way to differentiate :( ugh!

How do you determine the polling interval in HA?

How do you set the interval between scrapes ?
@nakiros24 Жыл бұрын
Nevermind. The answer can be: Use Multiscrape from HACS instead and set scan_interval. Also it lets you scrape multiple information in one go. Maybe a new/updated video?

I'm trying to scrape the weather alerts from the NWS alert page. Alerts show up as an #id with an h3. If there are multiple alerts there are multiple h3. Is there a way to scrape multiple ids? resource: url select: "#content h3"

Great video. I’m a little stuck. If I was looking for the average review or number of reviews of a product on Amazon, what CSS would you be using? I’m trying but getting nowhere. I’m wondering if it’s because Amazon is blocking (even with the Mozilla 5.0 header) of a, getting the CSS selection wrong....

thanks for this good vid. what is frequency sensor is fetching values?
Yeh the scan interval is how often (in seconds) it will scrape the website for an update

How to add attributes to your scrape-sensor? I have a scrape-sensor which gets the water-temperature from a lido. So I want the coordinates as attributes. like: latitude: 47.3519 longitude: 8.5360 If possible I would even like to have an attribute with the website-link where I scraped the information. Are there some informations about how I can create such attributes or how they have to be named ("link:", "source:", "web:", ...)?

Could you make video about Scrape sensor with login field ?
@WillSurridgeTech3 жыл бұрын
I don't believe that's possible because of the limitations of the sensor
@nagi6032 жыл бұрын
I wish it had two extra functionalities: - scrape multiple data points from a single pull - set how often the data is pulled. (e.g.: zero reason to pull info every 30s that's only refreshed every week) Also, you can just r-click in the inspect "elements" on whatever you want and go copy -> copy selector
@Videxthebest2 жыл бұрын
you can install multiscrub from hacs. Then you can selec freqency, and yes multiple data points.

I tried to use this to make a credit karma credit score sensor, but couldn't figure it out. thanks for the tutorial. I don't understand selectors or maybe it is not possible with that website.

Its probably not possible I'm afraid - scrape sensors are very basic
