Readme
Overview
The ScrapingAnt API allows you to scrape web pages without getting blocked. It can handle JavaScript rendering, cookies, sessions, and can even interact with web pages as if a real person were browsing. Using Pipedream, you can integrate ScrapingAnt with countless other apps to automate data extraction and feed this data into various business processes, analytics tools, or databases.
Example Use Cases
Scrape and Monitor Competitor Pricing: Extract pricing data from competitor websites and send alerts or log the data when changes are detected. Combine with Pipedream's cron scheduler to run this check regularly.
Aggregate News Articles for Trend Analysis: Scrape news articles from various sources to perform trend analysis or sentiment analysis. Use Pipedream's built-in code steps to process the scraped data, and perhaps send it to a Google Sheets document for further analysis.
Automate Job Listings Collection: Collect job listings from multiple career websites to create a consolidated list of opportunities. Integrate with Slack using Pipedream to send daily digests of new listings to a channel for job seekers.
