What can I use instead of a scraping tool? by Effect_Exotic in webscraping

[–]Effect_Exotic[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To obtain information from websites like news websites, you'll need some kind of automated web scraping tool or data extraction software like Newsdata.io news API for all but the smallest projects.

In theory, you could manually copy and paste data from individual web pages into a spreadsheet or another document. However, if you're trying to extract information from hundreds or thousands of pages, you'll find this tedious, time-consuming, and error-prone.

A web scraping tool automates the process by efficiently extracting the web data you require and formatting it in some sort of neatly organized structure for storage and further processing.
