This is the best tool for use reduce time consuming.

The concept of this chrome extension is incredible and possibly the solution to my biggest problem - if it worked as expected. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong but when I right click and scroll done to "Scrape similar..." it doesnt give me any results that I can copy and the "Query" field is "a" no matter what I choose to scrape. I tried to look for a contact section where I can get in touch with someone from the team who may be able to provide me support, however, found none. Is there a support email available?

Totally unintuitive. Don't even know where to start with it.

Jackie Ferrier 2024-09-29

Really hope that the developer updates it so it will continue to be accepted by Chrome. I found it to be the only extension that was flexible enough grab and organize page content the way I wanted, and I found the preset option very helpful. You do need to know some XML structuring.

Great tool , thanx

Free version permits you to use it just for ONE single time! I couldn't even decide whether I like this extension or not, or if it works properly or not. Pffffffff, waste of time!

I think Scraper needs a bit of xpath knowledge. For people who have programed scraping before and want to do it without program, this is a way to go.

Can't scrape just with regular selectors. Need to know XPath. No option to scrape multiple pages.

잘 사용하는 웹스크래퍼. Xpath를 이용해 작동. 구글로그인이 막혀서 작동하지 않는다. 대안이 있으면 옮길 것 같은데 가볍고 Xpath로 스크랩이 가능한 도구를 지금까지 보지 못해서 여전히 이 부가기능을 사용하고 있다. 유료플랜이라도 좋으니 클라우드/브라우저 작동 트리거를 지원하면 좋겠다. 브라우저에서 특정 시간마다 작동해 구글시트에 저장된다면 최고일 것.

Frames are not supported at the moment. Please open the frame in a new tab or window and try scraping again.

This extension is great if you know XPath syntax. I love that it lets you save (unlimited?) selectable settings for each website you want to scrape. The only things missing I'd like to see are: 1) ability to export the saved settings so you can share with colleagues (similar to how Recipes work in the DataMiner.io extension or how Sitemaps work with webscraper.io extension) and 2) ability to navigate to next page to continue scraping (like Instant Data Scraper allows)
