Comment on Import.io – Structured Web Data Scrapingparent

Comments

I tried Komono, but it cannot auth into the sites I want to pull the data from....

Just grabbed import.io - will see if it can loginto sites and grab the data from services I am already paying thousands per month for.

EDIT:

To add some context: I pay about $3,000 per month for some monitoring services which do not have any real reportin mechanisms. So for my daily and weekly reports, I have to manually compile them and screen shot a ton of things, compose an email and send.

I want to configure a scraper to automatically grab screens of things I want regularly and email them.

I want to have a script that will grab many diff pieces of data (visual graphs, typically) and put them all into one email.

I am working with my monitoring vendors to get them to add reporting... but until that can happen - I am tired of spending a couple hours per week screen capping graphs...
