hi,
i would like to scrape data from this website - the table where you can see the name of the lake and the corrsponding temperature:
http://www.wassertemperatur.org/oesterreich/
could you please give me a hint how to define the scrape function to achieve this?
i tried it with a couple of html tags. with td it shows at least the name of the first lake, when trying tbody the entity is no longer there to integrate in lovelace.
Does that site have an api?
no, it doesn’t.
if it had one and they would provide it in json, how could i use the data with a custom integration? scrape would not work for it?
Do this.
go to the page and right click on the temp you want as a sensor:
Inspect element.
Then select:
CSS Selector:
Make a sensor in home assistant and put the CSS data in (in confguration.yaml under
Sensor:
- platform: scrape
name: Ausee Temperature Test
resource: http://www.wassertemperatur.org/oesterreich/
select: ".entry-content > table:nth-child(4) > tbody:nth-child(1) > tr:nth-child(2) > td:nth-child(2) > span:nth-child(1)"
Result:
more info on the link I gave before:
thanks, it worked perfectly!
i read the scrape documentation before, but i just could not figure out, how to define “select”.
thanks!
Mark the “topic as solution” please 
Hi, I am trying to do the same for education but my chrome or edge browser doesn’t have the copy CSS option. Which browser are you using?
you have these options in firefox.
Edge also (Inspect)
I tried edge also but I didnt found the css option there
when i tried to apply this procedure on other sites, unfortunately i was not able to scrape the data although the fields where properly identified when choosing inspect element.

Hi all, I would like to take some information of the next website:
http://www.climaat.angra.uac.pt/boias/index2.htm
For example, how I can get the temperature shown in the last row of the table?
“Temperatura da água à superficie: 23 ºC” (Water surface temperature)
Hi folks. Can someone please help me get the KP-index from this site? I’ve tried and tried, but I can’t get my head around the formula. If it’s at all possible, that is. I would really appreciate it, thank you!
