How to web scrape data using no code with Octoparse

Often times we find ourselves in a situation where we need to collect data from websites but perhaps a big hurdle is limitation on the technical know-how that may traditional require extensive coding. In this video, I will provide a practical tutorial showing how you can web scrape data without coding knowledge by showing use cases on extracting data from YouTube, Twitter and Amazon in the form of structured spreadsheets (Excel and CSV file formats). Particularly, we will be using Octoparse (which is a no-code software and also the sponsor of this video) that you can use to perform web scraping in just a few clicks.

Hey man, I'm transitioning from another platform and now using OctoParse to attempt pulling some data. Do you know if 2captcha, deathbycaptcha, or anything else out there would be sufficient for getting those captcha pops for every 30-90 rows of data?? I got the project done and it works but this is my only holding pattern at this point. Adding in custom user agents, rotating them, etc has been complete. Next is also residential IP's etc
