'Cannot fetch from Scholar' Error #472

Closed tdrivas closed 1 year ago

tdrivas commented 1 year ago

Dear all,

I was using scholary to fetch automatically my papers' citations every 2-3 days. Before some weeks, the same code yields the error "Cannot fetch from Google". I tested the same code in another VM machine outside my country (thus different IP) and it gives the same error. Afterwards, I added to the code the following lines:

pg = ProxyGenerator()
pg.FreeProxies()
scholarly.use_proxy(pg)  

but no luck again. I need to highlight that i am using the function search_author_id to get the data.

Any idea?

Thanks in advance! Best, Thanassis

Marking this as a duplicate of #465 where all pages are being blocked by Google Scholar unless a robust proxy is used.
