So when I pull data, it has to be from tables or some repeatable div/ card elements? I pick the of a table and it figures out the elements from body, pulls, cleans and gives it as an API? Also love the choice of music.

@varun_agarwal1 Hi Varun, yes that's pretty much it. It will scrape whatever your select, in most cases this means data with a specific structure / pattern (title, price, description etc.) but that's up to you. > Also love the choice of music. Excellent taste ;)

@humanismusic_ Can you tell me song name? Or did you make it on your own?

Can this login to a website first and then scrape?
Mike
@jimsilvo Hi - not with cloud scraping, but it's possible to scrape behind a login using local scraping. The differences are explained here: https://simplescraper.io/guide

Exceptionally powerful little browser app that has a full backend support and API setup! Clever!

@humanismusic_ feels like I was missing the party here! Awesome product btw! I'm curious about one thing. Do you handle IP blacklisting? From my xp when scrapping, it's quite easy to get your IP blocked (if using a backend with fixed ip)
Mike
@jpgbarbosa party's just getting started :) Thank you and yes IP-rotation is built in so you shouldn't be blocked while scraping

Am I able to export the data to CSV or Google Sheet?
Mike
@nissar_ahamed1 Hey - csv yes. But no integration with Google Sheets just yet.

@humanismusic_ Thanks - I installed it, and I will play around with this.

Hey @humanismusic_ how do I scrap a link description which opens a new tab on clicking? Like this website https://www.1mg.com/manufacturer.... After clicking on a link, another page opens and the extension doesn't stay active.
Mike
@mukul23 Hey Mukul, think this may be a similar question to Kevin's so I'll link to that (https://www.producthunt.com/post...). Basically you create one recipe to scrape a list of urls and crawl each of those urls using another recipe.
