How to extract data from any website using javascript?
you don’t necessary need special software to extract data from a website using javascript, but you’ll often use browser-based tools or libraries.
I know it’s been a while, but If you want to extract data from a website using JavaScript, one of the easiest ways is using web scraping techniques with a tool like Cheerio.js or using the Fetch API to get data from a webpage. It’s kind of like “asking” the website for its info.
And you’d load the page, parse through it, and pull out the parts you want.
For client-side scraping, you can use document.querySelector to grab elements on the page and extract data. One thing to remember is that you should always respect a site’s robots.txt file and ensure scraping doesn’t violate its terms of service. Also, if you need extra security, consider using the identity validation api to ensure the data you’re handling is legit.
