posted 5 months agoI just did a test. It is working. Please provide more detailed description with steps to reproduce the problem on https://forum.webscraper.io/ - Rated 1 out of 5by jim, 7 months agouseless. Lies on the website. Said you can use this standalone. Its only usable in their paid service.. which I wont pay for as I cant test it. Usless.

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:

- Rated 1 out of 5by JagWife06, 6 years agoIt 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.
