Complete solution

Shows how to fix pydantic ValidationError on 1.14.0+ - install a beta with the fix, not 1.19.0 final. Use it when you hit this exact problem. Skip it when your error message or symptom looks different.

TL;DR

If SmartScraperGraph throws a pydantic ValidationError on 1.14.0 or newer, do not downgrade to pre-1.14 - install a beta containing the fix (1.19.0-beta10 or newer, beta11 confirmed working).

Steps

If SmartScraperGraph throws a pydantic ValidationError on 1.14.0 or newer, do not downgrade to pre-1.14 - install a beta containing the fix (1.19.0-beta10 or newer, beta11 confirmed working). Note the version trap from the thread: 1.19.0 final is older than 1.19.0-beta11 in fix terms, so check that your installed version actually includes the merged fix rather than assuming a higher-looking number is newer.
