What are you trying to match exactly? The ids should be in the form of gritter-item- and followed by a number? – user1177636 Apr 30 at 7:32

Try using the below xpath where we use contains keyword.

//*[contains(@id, 'gritter-item-')]

I would be very careful with this approach because it can easily match any other ID that has the same format. And assuming this is a auto generated ID I'd say the possibilities that this is true are pretty good. – Alex Peña Apr 30 at 14:53
