Hi, i need to retrieve data from this url:"

Code: Select all

https://www.betexplorer.com/next/soccer/

Because i need to make some operations from that url..

I need to use a command like "wordoffset" to cut the text imported into a variable until find some team soccer...like "Germany: Bundesliga" and then get all the teams for that type of soccer Team...and put it into a field...

Hi, Fasasoftware
Does this website have an API service?
I think it would be much more comfortable for you to use.

Is it the same betexplorer as the github repository with a bunch of scraping scripts? You might possibly be able to bypass the betexplorer site and pull directly from its sources, whether harnessing the github scripts or converting them to LC?
