    Parser is paywalled.
    So this plugin is for simple tasks only.

    Yes the parser is only available in Web Scraper Cloud. But you can use OpenRefine to parse scraped data. It is a free tool for large dataset parsing.

    We have written a series of articles on how to use OpenRefine:

    pretty useful tool to crawl info from a listing website; but there's a significant learning curve, especially I had some difficulties using pagination selector and avoid duplicating the first page.

    Free-trial option is good. I think "export as json" must be include in free-trial.

    Very convenient way to scrape data without having to worry about logging in, faking a browser etc, everything works as if you were doing it manually, excellent addon.

    powerful tool. But I uninstalled it as my antivirus detected it as a potential threat. I would recommend NOT to install it. It says that "This is not a Recommended Extension" for a good reason.

    una volta entrati nell'ottica dell'APP si riesce a prendere tutti i dati di cui si necessita, dopo varie esperinze negative post autoaggiornamenti ho dovuto ripetere la procedura creata poiche' l'app dopo l'aggiornamento non mi estrapolava i dati, ho pero' scoperto l'export e import sitemap con cui tutto si ripristina in pochi secondi.... il download non prende cio' che vedo con il tasto "Data Preview" ma con un banale copia incolla prendo i dati e ne faccio cio' che voglio.... complimenti agli autori

    It definitely pulls the html data as needed, but it returns multiple selectors scrambled and not in order. For example, I'm pulling news articles from a search on a newspaper's website. I had selectors for the date published, article title, url to the article, and the little snippet/article preview. It returned ALL of the data requested, but none of the selectors are on one line together in the CSV file, so I can't tell what dates go with what urls/article titles, and what snippets belong to what article url/title.
