You build scrapers in the Chrome extension by selecting the elements you want, then run them in Web Scraper Cloud on a schedule. It’s meant for ongoing, automated scraping and for pushing extracted data to other destinations like cloud storage and exports.
Is Webscraper.io no-code enough for non-developers?
Yes—scrapers are configured through a point-and-click Chrome extension without coding. The setup focuses on defining what to extract and how to navigate, then running the job in the cloud; users should be prepared for a learning curve and to use the videos/docs to get started.
Can Webscraper.io scrape sites that load content with JavaScript?
Yes. Web Scraper Cloud supports full JavaScript execution and waiting for Ajax requests, which helps when pages load content dynamically or require multiple steps during navigation.
How do scheduling and delivery work in Web Scraper Cloud?
In the cloud, you can schedule scraping jobs hourly, daily, or weekly. After jobs run, you can access results via API and webhooks, or export data in CSV, XLSX, or JSON to locations like Dropbox, Google Drive/Sheets, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or Amazon S3.
What is a URL credit in Webscraper.io?
A URL credit is tied to the pages loaded by Web Scraper Cloud. For example, scraping 100 pages uses 100 URL credits, while extracting 100 records from a single page uses one credit.
Does Webscraper.io handle CAPTCHAs and bot protection?
Yes. The cloud scraper includes CAPTCHA bypass and bot-protection bypass, along with automatic retries. Depending on the plan, you can also use proxy options such as residential or datacenter proxies (including proxy add-ons) to support rotation.
