Why doesn't importxml work?

Question

Google Sheets

It is not possible to fully understand the IMPORTXML function
Task: import the number of subscribers of the VK group into the table.

=IMPORTXML("https://vk.com/posturbanism";"/html/body/div[12]/div/div/div[2]/div[2]/div[2]/div/div/div/div[1]/div[2]/div[1]/div/div[3]/aside/div/a/div/span[2]")

Can't figure out where the error is

Answer 1

Try the query
\\*
And it will be clear what exactly receives IMPORTXML. It will probably not be what you see in the browser at all (due to authorization or the fact that the site understands that it is being parsed)
