I have written a script to scrape a website. Initially, it includes directories, and inside each directory, there are subdirectories. The problem is that the program is not crawling through the subdirectories. The website I am going to scrape is:

https://t24-documentation.finductive.com/Solutions/T24_Transact/Accounts/

The script I have written:

import { Config } from "./src/config";

const url = "https://t24-documentation.finductive.com/Solutions/T24_Transact/Accounts/";
const match = url + "/**";
const fileName = "output";
export const defaultConfig: Config = {
    url,
    match,
