Hey @daniel

This is a very custom case, where the scraper is working fine, but you want a specific field.

So unfortnately, Iā€™m unsure how long it can take them to respond back

Consider these alternatives:

  1. Getting the location from the original text.

We have regex commands ā€œfind values using regular expresionā€.

Iā€™ve tried prompting ChatGPT to give you the regex you need and has worked quite well!

There might also be ways to extract the location with Google Sheets formulas, might be worth a try!

  1. Refining the scraper yourself

We recently did 2 workshops teaching about these topics if you want to learn:
