    Hey hey! Can you drop the URL for your table here? (if applicable) 🫶 Don't worry, only admins will be able to open your table 😉

    It keeps failing the scrape or even when it's successful it is not grabbing anything anymore. It is still charging me as well ...

    Hey Gabriel - can you turn on the premium proxy setting? It should improve the scrape results

    I've seen premium proxy improve what is scraped some times. Looks like this is actually working for you now though right? Keethu R. Any ideas as to why zenrows scrape would not work one day but work the other?

    What was the error/ response you were getting with unsuccessful scrapes? My guess if it was 'Queued' for a very long time is that it was a rate limit issue - we set the limit according to Zenrows documentation to throttle the number of results sent over to them. We can't do much about this unless they raise the limit on their side. If it was timing out, it might have been due to the fact that Zenrows sometimes needs to re-run the same request a couple of times to succeed. Let me know if this is what you were running into and if it’s something that comes up often and we can look into how to handle this better. Let me know if it was something else and I can look into this more!

    I figured it out and it was because the url had m. as in they were mobile sites so the scrape didn't function. Fixed it
