Auto-Scroll FAQ

Auto-scroll doesn't work well on some pages.
  • Try setting a longer wait time after scrolling. Auto-scroll is heavily affected by the speed of the page being collected. For YouTube, it can sometimes take more than 5 seconds per attempt to load additional comments. Setting a longer wait time after scrolling significantly increases the chances of receiving all desired data.

  • Execution time is limited to a maximum of 10 minutes. Features where Listly extracts data on your behalf can only run for up to 10 minutes, so setting too many scroll repetitions and excessively long wait times will cause data extraction to fail due to execution time limits. When configuring settings, set the number of repetitions and wait time appropriately so the warning below doesn't appear. Estimated time may differ from actual time depending on the website's server and network conditions.
