So I have a scraper that collects data from different sources and them returns the result as a dataframe. I currently want to create a Gradio interface that given a user input would returns the resulting dataframe as output.

`gr.Interface(fn=scraper_obj.scrape, inputs='text', outputs=gr.Dataframe(headers=['title', 'author', 'text']), allow_flagging='never').launch()`

As you can see in the above code, the interface would call the scrape function on the user input which would return a dataframe that has three columns (title, author and text) but when I try this code, it returns this [output](https://imgur.com/uz8XNQy).

hi @vftnr , you probably need to tidy up your data before outputting it to the dataframe component. It can accept different [types of objects](https://gradio.app/docs/#:~:text=bool%22%2C%20and%20%22date%22.-,type,str,-Type%20of%20value). If you can give us a more complete code snippet, perhaps I can help you debug ?
