However i am getting below error - can anyone assist?

@aqol45 there a few ways to configure your monitor so that a content is always found in the page.

Following post mentions the method of selecting additional elements:

Long pauses when jobs are no longer available due to SELECTION_EMPTY error

It will be a good idea to select elements from the page when there are no more jobs being listed. That way, it will find the elements it is looking for quickly. Here are the steps to do that: Navigate to the monitor’s Options page. Open the visual selector. Select the new elements from the page. Ensure that you do not delete the previously selected elements. This process allows the monitor to locate elements effectively, regardless of whether job listings are present or not. Hope this helps!

But note how it was solved in the reply Long pauses when jobs are no longer available due to SELECTION_EMPTY error - #8 by urkurkl . One could select a bigger element that contains more elements that can be monitored for changes.

In your case, the easiest solution is to include the page’s title or another element in the page that is not likely to change. The page’s title can be added by adding one of the following selectors:

CSS: title
XPath: //title

Try it out and let me know if you need any help. Cheers
