Ahh, dooh.

It seems like the source that the script rip data from by standart only contains 250 chars

If you eg. go to

```
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0323353177/

```

And view it as user agent:

> Mozilla/5.0 (iPhone; CPU iPhone OS 5\_0\_1 like Mac OS X) AppleWebKit/534.46 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1 Mobile/9A405 Safari/7534.48.3

The div with `productDescription` only contains 250 chars.

If you press the field you go to a new page with the path

```
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/0323353177/#productDescription_secondary_view_div_1520843164890

```

Here you have the full description inside the div `productDescription_fullView`

It should have a xpath

```
//*[@id="productDescription_fullView"] 

```

A dirty solution in: [onebox/lib/onebox/engine/amazon\_onebox.rb at main · discourse/onebox · GitHub](https://github.com/discourse/onebox/blob/master/lib/onebox/engine/amazon_onebox.rb)

Find the empty line 85 add

```
      description = raw.at_css('#productDescription_fullView')&.inner_text

```

Change line 104

```
        description: raw.at("#productDescription")&.inner_text,

```

to

```
        description: description,

```

To have something like that
