Has Anyone Tried the Instant Data Scraper Chrome Extension? How Effective Is It for Web Scraping?

Honestly, the instant data scraper chrome extension is hit or miss for me too. It’s awesome for static pages, but dynamic ones? Nah, not so much.

I’ve switched to ParseHub for those cases. It’s a bit more setup, but it’s way more reliable for complex sites.

Pro tip: If you’re sticking with the extension, try disabling JavaScript on the page before scraping. It sometimes helps with dynamic content.
