Web Clipper - Inserting Wikipedia infobox into properties?

Help
1

What I’m trying to do

I’d like to populate some of the properties using information from a Wikipedia Infobox. For example, for a videogame I’d like to automatically populate properties for Developer, Publisher, Series, Platform, Release, Genre.

Things I have tried

I tried using {{developer}}, {{publisher}} and so on but it doesn’t work.

Thanks.

Hi hagutierrez,

Welcome back to the forums. Haven’t seen you here for over a year :wink:

The Wikipedia Infobox is a tricky one as you need to extract the Selector Variables

If you want something quick and basic a prompt variable with an embeded selector variable would work well.

Prompt Variable + Selector Variable

{{"convert the table {{selector:infobox ib-video-game hproduct}} into an Obsidian Markdown table with href links on each result"}}
