Tips for successful retraining
Before retraining, review what your robot is currently capturing so you know what to modify.
If the website structure has changed significantly, you might need to adjust multiple data points.
Test your robot after retraining to ensure all data is being captured correctly.
If you're adding new fields, be sure to update any integrations or workflows that use your robot's data.
