Web scraping issue

Hi everyone, I have built a workflow for scraping data from a website. There are 3 tables I needed but only the first 2 are working. No table can be extracted for the last one. Is there anyone could help on this? The table I would like to get is in below. Thanks a lot.

Hi, you may want to include your workflow as an attachment so that others can assist and troubleshoot.

 

From what I can see in the screenshot, these are the steps that I would take.

 

  1. Check whether the data is even coming out of the Python Tool. If not the error is in the Python code.
  2. If the data is there, then check the FieldName, followed by the name of the table in the HTML (is it fgid_2475?)
