Web Connector and Infinite Scroll

[RobertR]

Hi community,

I've been playing around with the Web Connector but can't figure out how to import more data past the initial first 10 rows that are loaded.

The website that I'm scraping is this one  and works with a 'inifinite scroll': when you scroll down, it loads the next 10 items while staying in the same window. 

Preferably I would load the first X amount of entries.

Ive searched Google and the Community board but without luck. 

Hoping that one of you can help me out 🙂

@RobertR,

How do you get the first 10 rows from the website? When I enter the above URL in Power BI Desktop, I get the following data.

Hi,

I’m trying to connect to retrieve the first 1.000 rows of a page with infinite scroll but having no luck with the Web Connector. It’s just retrieves the first 10 results or so that are initially visible. 

The URL is

https://www.verlorenofgevonden.nl/gevonden-voorwerpen?q=fiets+rotterdam&date=2018-04-13

Anyone got got a tip to get around this?

thnks in advance!
