Scrape Url Tool

Extracting Data Directly from a URL

The Scrape URL tool is designed to extract detailed information directly from a specified URL, making it ideal for capturing specific data points from web pages, such as product features, company overviews, or contact information.

How to Use the Scrape URL Tool

  1. Create a Scrape URL Column: Set up a column with this tool enabled and provide a URL in another column as input.

  2. Define the Data to Extract: Use prompts to specify what data you want to retrieve, such as "Extract the list of product features from this page."

Good Use Cases

  • Extracting Product Information: "Find and list the main features of products on this page."

  • Retrieving Company Overviews: "Extract the 'About Us' section from the website."

  • Gathering Contact Details: "Scrape contact information from this page."

Not-So-Good Use Cases

  • Searching the Entire Web: Use the Web Search tool instead for general web browsing.

  • Handling Non-URL Data: This tool requires a valid URL input. If you’re working with files, use the File Analysis tool.

Tips for Effective Use

  • Ensure your URL input column is correctly formatted.

  • Be specific about the data you want to extract to avoid incomplete results.
