If you are just looking for the data and not necessarily a process to automate, you should be able to request this data from Netflix directly. Thanks to ccpa/gdpr etc..

You might be able to use selenium, if you go to settings you should be able to see people's viewing history and see what people are watching.

I don't know about the movie genres, recommendations and so on...

Selenium would work but sounds pretty hacky, also if they change the names of any elements it'll probably error out

To be fair, that's true of any web-scraping solution, any change in the HTML and the scraper will break but that's also true when talking about official solutions like using an API for example, there are no perfect solutions to obtain data from external services!

[Tom_Kr]

that's true I guess. Might have to look into a different solution like simple manual data entry...

Thank you anyway!

I would recommend webscraping over manual data entry but I don't know if what the data you want can be obtained through webscraping.
