Hi all,

I have an issue where I need to extract several pages of data from websites using values from another table in the URL.

In other words, the initial extracts contains a brief overview of data for each year so that looks like this:

For i=2014 to Year(Now())

DailyRecords:
LOAD ID,
     date,
     type,
     cat
FROM
[http://sharepointwebsite.net/database/dblist.php?Year=$(i)]
(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1);

NEXT i

Below is the load script for one day:

DailyRecordDetails:
LOAD *
FROM 
[http://sharepointwebsite.net/database/record.php?id=20150111-B2GT]
(html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1);

However, the id at the end of the URL needs to change to look at the page relating to each ID from the DailyRecords table. Can this be done?

Check below link for sample code

Load all Excel files and all sheets in a folder

LET vFilePath = 'C:\';

FOR EACH file in FileList('$(vFilePath)\*.xlsx');   // Loops each excel file in the given Folder

//In order to get the file information from SQLtables command making use of the ODBC connection format

ODBC CONNECT32 TO [Excel Files;DBQ=$(file)];

SheetNames:

SQLtables;  // Loads all sheet names in the Excel file.

DISCONNECT;

FOR index = 0 to NoOfRows('SheetNames')-1  // Loops for each sheet in the Excel file.

LET sheetName = PurgeChar(PurgeChar(Peek('TABLE_NAME', index, 'SheetNames'), Chr(39)), Chr(36));

TableName:

Load * ,

  FileBaseName()as FIle,

  FileDir() as Dir,

  FileName() as File_Name,

  '$(sheetName)' as Sheet_name

From $(file)(ooxml, embedded labels, table is [$(sheetName)]);

NEXT index

DROP TABLE SheetNames;

NEXT

Like this:

For i=2014 to Year(Now()) 

  DailyRecords: 

  LOAD ID, 

  date, 

  type, 

  cat 

  FROM [http://sharepointwebsite.net/database/dblist.php?Year=$(i)] 

  (html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1); 

Next i 

For j = 0 To NoOfRows('DailyRecords')

  Let vID = Peek('ID', j, 'DailyRecords');

  DailyRecordDetails: 

  LOAD * 

  FROM [http://sharepointwebsite.net/database/record.php?id=$(vID)] 

  (html, codepage is 1252, embedded labels, table is @1); 

Next j
