You can get the website source code in this way:

Extracting information from a website

You can easily get information form using The web component get request block.You will see in the api docs which url you need to use exactly.To get specific times for a region.You can see this tutorial on working with apis and web component : https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mitappinventortest/DvwZO3eDjHs/4m5fY9xhHd0J And this tutorial for parsing data you got from an api using dictionaries: Guide: How to get JSON data from an Api using dictionaries (and show it on a dynamic cardview)

Or you can view it in a webview using:

view-source:url

Was he talking about API?

As the URL isn’t an API , so it should return the source , here is an example:

In fact,if you tried to use an API link in a web browser ( of course an API that doesn’t require headers, authentication,etc…) the text returned from the api would be displayed, but, when you use a normal webpage, the source would be returned.Which the browser would use for displaying the web page .That’s why when we use a GET request the source code is returned.

I never thought about it, maybe because I didn’t have to use it that way. In what situation do we use this?

How do we do it normally in the browser ?
Ok…

@Rogerio_Rios

How do we do it normally in the browser ?

On a computer, right click on the page and “view page source”

@TimAi2

On a computer, right click on the page

Yes I know. My text was not very clear. Yes in the browser I do this and check for errors in the “inspect source code” option of the browser.

I was comparing Mohamed’s block with the option to view browser code.
If they are the same thing, why use it?
Okay. Everything cleared up.

@GAURAV_GOEL

what exactly are you talking about now?

It would really help if you provided a screenshot of your relevant blocks, so we can see what you are trying to do, and where the problem may be.

To get an image of your blocks, right click in the Blocks Editor and select “Download Blocks as Image”. You might want to use an image editor to crop etc. if required. Then post it here in the community.
