I cant seem to find the ID when i inspect the source of the website "rofex.primary.ventures". All i want to do is grab all the data below the Ult column and put it into an excel worksheet. Ive used firefox because it shows the HTLM code in a nicer way but i would like to scrape it from chrome using an excel Macro. How would i do this?
Sub Rofex()
Dim appIE As Object
Set appIE = CreateObject("internetexplorer.application")
With appIE
.Navigate "https://rofex.primary.ventures"
.Visible = True
End With
Do While appIE.Busy
DoEvents
Loop
Set allRowOfData = appIE.document.getElementById("rx:DO:2019:01:a")
Dim myValue As String: myValue = allRowOfData.Cells(6).innerHTML
appIE.Quit
Set appIE = Nothing
Range("A1").Value = myValue
End Sub
This is what i have but get all types of errors, im new to coding, needless to say. Thank you!
Use the available API. There is a csv format xmlhttp response that you can target to extract this info. Note that the results are in 1000s so, for example, DOEne19
is ult
37,960
and the output is 37.96
.
Option Explicit
Public Sub GetInfo()
Const URL As String = "https://rofex.primary.ventures/api/v1/platform/market/md"
Dim lines() As String
With CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
.Open "GET", URL, False
.setRequestHeader "If-Modified-Since", "Sat, 1 Jan 2000 00:00:00 GMT"
.send
lines = Split(.responseText, vbLf)
End With
Dim output(), i As Long, rowCounter As Long, arr() As String
ReDim output(1 To UBound(lines), 1 To 2)
For i = 1 To UBound(lines)
If InStr(lines(i), "|") > 0 Then
rowCounter = rowCounter + 1
arr = Split(lines(i), "|")
output(rowCounter, 1) = Replace$(arr(0), "m;", vbNullString)
output(rowCounter, 2) = arr(6)
End If
Next
output = Application.Transpose(output)
ReDim Preserve output(1 To 2, 1 To rowCounter)
output = Application.Transpose(output)
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
.Cells(1, 1) = "Ticker": .Cells(1, 2) = "1000s"
.Cells(2, 1).Resize(UBound(output, 1), UBound(output, 2)) = output
End With
End Sub
Otherwise, you can download as csv as then use loop column A and use split to extract the columns of interest. Download part shown below.
Public Sub DownloadFile()
Dim http As Object
Const filepath As String = "C:\Users\User\Desktop\TestDownload.csv"
Set http = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP")
http.Open "GET", "https://rofex.primary.ventures/api/v1/platform/market/md", False
http.send
On Error GoTo errhand
With CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
.Open
.Type = 1
.Write http.responseBody
.SaveToFile filepath '<== specify your path here
.Close
End With
Debug.Print "FileDownloaded"
TidyFile filepath
Exit Sub
errhand:
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Debug.Print Err.Number, Err.Description
MsgBox "Download failed"
End If
End Sub
Public Sub TidyFile(ByVal filepath As String)
Dim wb As Workbook, lines(), i As Long, output(), rowCounter As Long, arr() As String
Set wb = Workbooks.Open(filepath)
With wb.Sheets(1)
lines = Application.Transpose(.Range("A2:A" & .Cells(.Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row).Value)
ReDim output(1 To UBound(lines), 1 To 2)
For i = LBound(lines) To UBound(lines)
If InStr(lines(i), "|") > 0 Then
rowCounter = rowCounter + 1
arr = Split(lines(i), "|")
output(rowCounter, 1) = Replace$(arr(0), "m;", vbNullString)
output(rowCounter, 2) = arr(6)
End If
Next
output = Application.Transpose(output)
ReDim Preserve output(1 To 2, 1 To rowCounter)
output = Application.Transpose(output)
.Cells.ClearContents
.Cells(1, 1) = "Ticker": .Cells(1, 2) = "1000s"
.Cells(2, 1).Resize(UBound(output, 1), UBound(output, 2)) = output
End With
wb.Close SaveChanges:=True
