Hello. I am trying to make a sports app that gets live scores for college sports. I can’t seem to find a free API for this. My other option is to go to a webpage and get the HTML for the web page. Some thing like this:  
This is the website: **[https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/\_/id/172](https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/_/id/172)**  
This is the website in HTML: **view-source:[https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/\_/id/172](https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/_/id/172)**

How to I get the HTML from the website and use it in my thunkable app? I think there is an extension for this but how do I get extensions in Thunkable x?

Do you mean to view the site itself? This is easily done by `web viewer` component.

Use `web API` it will get you the html text as the response and then you can search it or use it as you want.

Thank you for the help. There’s just one issue:

The project linked above works but when I change the API url to the website that I am going to use, it reads “undefined” in the label. Can you see if you can get the link to work. Here is the website: [https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/\_/id/172/](https://www.espn.com/college-football/team/schedule/_/id/172/)

Thanks!
