Web scraping error
#1
AttributeError: ResultSet object has no attribute 'find'. You're probably treating a list of items like a single item. Did you call find_all() when you meant to call find()?

what is this error?

My code given below

while True: response= requests.get(url) response data=response.text soup= BeautifulSoup(data,'html.parser') apis=soup.find_all('tr',{"class":"odd views-row-first"}) for api in apis: name= apis.find('td',{"class":"views-field views-field-pw-version-title"}).text des=apis.find('td',{'class':'views-field views-field-search-api-excerpt views-field-field-api-description hidden-xs visible-md visible-sm col-md-8'}).text category=apis.find('td',{'class':'views-field views-field-field-article-primary-category'}).text link= apis.find('a',{'class':'views-field views-field-pw-version-title'}).get('href') print('Name:',name,'\nDescription:', des ,'\ncategory', category ,'\nLink', link) url_tag=soup.find('a',{'title':'Go to next page'}) if url_tag.get('href'): url= url_tag.get('href') print(url) else: break
