You cannot access data that is calculated on the web page by javascript. The html node fetches the source of the page but does not run the javascript.

Thank you for your answer. Do you have any idea how I can get that calculated data? Is it possible in other way?

Not that I am aware of, other than to work out what the js is doing and replicate that in a function node for example.

I’ve not done it in Node-RED but if you google “scrape javascript tendered page” there are techniques using third party websites or python

A typo there I think, should be _rendered_ possibly.
