Sitemap scraping

WebScraper.IO follows a sitemap you define to pull structured fields from across a website. A Beam agent starts a scrape, reads the returned rows, and writes them to your table or CRM using your field mapping. It applies rules to drop duplicates and mark rows that miss a required field. Scrapes that return an empty set, stall partway, or come back with a changed structure are handed to a person, who checks whether the target site was updated before the results are loaded into anything your team relies on.

Structured data export

WebScraper.IO outputs scraped results as structured records ready for other systems. A Beam agent reads each export, maps the columns to your destination, and writes clean rows where your team needs them, tagging the run and source URL. It appends new entries and updates ones that changed since the last run. Exports with garbled fields, wrong column counts, or values that fail a sanity check are set aside for review, so a person catches a broken selector before bad rows spread into your reports or CRM.

Scheduled crawls

WebScraper.IO can run the same crawl on a repeating basis to keep data current. A Beam agent launches each scheduled crawl, reads the fresh results, and compares them against the stored set so only genuine changes are written. It records what changed and can alert a channel when a watched value shifts. Crawls that show a sudden drop in row count, or a field that vanished across many pages, are escalated to a person, since that usually means the site changed and the selectors need a human fix.
