by zzzzzd, 4 years agopowerful 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.

posted a year agoYes 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:
