Purpose of Web Content Extractor : The purpose of web content extractors is to simulate the human browsing experience by replicating computer commands to click, operate dropdown menus, and ultimately extract specific data fields from a web page. The value of web scraping lies in the automation of the data collection and the transformation of the data itself from an unstructured format to a structured format such as CSV, TSV, or XML file. These files can then be downloaded and analyzed. #Onlinedataextraction #Web #Contentextractor
