I need help with a website

Hello! I don't know if this is the place for this question but I need to extract data from a website that is in XML and has the SOAP version and HTTP GET.

I have the following website opendata.camara.cl and I want to have a database with how every congressmen voted in every votation from 2005 to now.

Every bill has a id number (Número de boletín) and every bill can have none or more votations. So, first I need to have every número de boletín of every bill that has been discussed from 2005 to know, then, I need to put them in "Votaciones por Proyecto de Ley" (that you can find by "Detalle de Votación - Cámara de Diputados). Lastly, every ID Votación that the last step gave me, put into "Detalle de Votación - Cámara de Diputados" so I can have how everyone voted.

So if someone has any idea of something that can help me of a direction on the solution, I would really apreciate it! any information that can help me understand the website would help me too

I have tried to do a GET on R but I couldn't acomplish anything

Help using GET

Hello! I don't know a lot a about codding, I use R.

I have the following website opendata.camara.cl and I want to have a database with how every congressmen voted in every votation from 2005 to now.

Every bill has a id number (Número de boletín) and every bill can have none or more votations. So, first I need to have every número de boletín of every bill that has been discussed from 2005 to know, then, I need to put them in "Votaciones por Proyecto de Ley" (that you can find by "Detalle de Votación - Cámara de Diputados). Lastly, every ID Votación that the last step gave me, put into "Detalle de Votación - Cámara de Diputados" so I can have how everyone voted.

There is a SOAP version (that includes http get) I don't know if that can help with something and the search gives results in XML

So if someone has any idea of something that can help me of a direction on the solution, I would really apreciate it!

I need help

Hello, I don't have almost any knowlegde in web scraping and I don't really know if this is the correct place for this question but I need to extract data from this opendata.camara.cl

I want to extract how every congress men voted in every votation from 2005, so I can't do it manually

Every bill has a number (número de boletín) and every bill can have none o more votations (ID Votación) the ID Votación (that you can know from "Votaciones por proyecto de ley" by the número de boletín) has to be entered one by one in "Votación detalle - Cámara de Diputados"

So what I want is to have a database with how every congressman voted in every election from 2005 to now.

The website says something about SOAP, HTTP GET and stuff. I know how to use R and a little
of python if that works for something.

Thank you if someone can give a lead in the right way!
