@jordanslon Hi Jordan, the current URL for the chrome extension does not yet support the extraction of custom data types. However the required_attribute property within columns clause does allow you to do so.
This is the API

This is a sample data source that was created today

@garyjob and when you're going to add it in extension?
@jordanslon I will add it to the extension once I have figured out a good and simple UI/UX to expose that feature without bloating the current interface. I just noticed that you are a designer. Would be nice if I could get some inputs from you on any UI suggestions you might have. :)
@vertis Hi Luke, yeah we are trying to find a good balance between promoting community sharing and generating enough revenue to cover for server cost, quite similar to the former GitHub model.

This is an interesting product that will save you alot time if you require data from webpages.
I am doing a Product challenge for 20 days where I write about the #1 product on PH. Today, day 7, I wrote about GetData 😃 -> https://medium.com/@nife/product...

Thanks @nifeoluyemi for sharing and getting the word out on GetData, and all the best with your 20 days product challenge 😃
Hi Aolko, thanks for the honest feedback. I totally agree that this project is not very different from other free Chrome scrapers when it comes to scraping small sized data sets.
It is primarily used to gather large datasets for machine learning purposes. Hence the need to cover server cost which can be significant depending on the size of the data that needs to be gathered. In some instances, I have observed some users gathering up to 2 million records within a few hours for property investment purposes...
Love the tools ability to match entities across a website from your original feature selection.
Also enjoy being informed on how many other users have scraped data from the website your currently visiting - a great way to build a sense of community!
Pros:
An intuitive tool to streamline the data collection experience.
Cons:
Caused my browser to run a little slower, but can be expected when it's dynamically classifying unique features across every website.
Hi Lachlan, thanks for the feedback! Yup, we are still in the process of figuring out how to further reduce the computational load on browsers when in use.

The Web is a Giant Graph Database of Human Knowledge. However, unlike other properly functioning databases its Semantic Query Language is missing.
GetData.IO solves this fundamental problem by providing a decentralized engine that allows their users the ability to query for structured data from the web into easy-to-use formats.
Their vision is to turn the Web into a fully functional Giant Graph Database of Human Knowledge thereby democratizing access to it and believe doing so will advance civilization through machine learning.

When your extension is worse (thanks to freemium) than the alternatives it's time to think.
Pros:Nothing special, when compared to other scrapers
Cons:Freemium extension
