@Tom's Tech Academy What would be the process for extracting the data that's viewable after hitting "apply, " for all of the available job offers including on other pages?

Do you think this would work on an Amazon Wishlist to create a very simple price tracker? (I can only test this next week otherwise I would just try it out).

thanks for this. Could you explain how you then get the information from the URL or linked page? Greetings from Belfast, Northern Ireland.

Hello, is there a way to extract the URL from the web search bar? On some of the pages that I’m trying to extract data from there’s no clickable link on the webpage that I can right click on and extract the href into excel. Thank you

What if we have multiple urls in spreadsheet and want to scrap data from them.?

Hey Tom, thanks for the video. Strangely enough, after using "Extract data from web page", the pop-up doesn't automatically appear for me in Chrome where I can enter the elements I would like to scrape. Would you know a workaround for this?
