Step-by-step guide
Step 1: Load your CSV or Excel file on Datablist
Create a free account and import your data file. Datablist is a powerful CSV editor. Perfect for opening large CSV files or Excel files with a list of items.
Create a new collection and import your file.
Step 2: Select the "Links & Email Addresses Scraper" enrichment
Click on the "Enrich" button, and search for "Links & Email Addresses Scraper".
Step 3: Select the column with the Webpages and enable proxy if needed
Then select your URLs to parse. A setting is available to use a proxy to scrape the web pages. Using a proxy is useful for ecommerce websites that are protected and will detect abnormal scraping activity.
Note: The cost per URL to scrape is 0.50 credits with the proxy, and 0.10 credits without.
Step 4: Define where to store extracted links and email addresses
The enrichment returns email addresses and social links. Create a property or map to an existing property to store the results.
When multiple links/emails are found, they are returned with a comma between each.
