List Extraction
The List Extraction tool is the most powerful scraping tool in No Code Web Scraper. It lets you extract structured data from repeating elements like product grids, job boards, search results, and any other list-based layout.
How it works
Use the element picker to click on the data points you want to extract — titles, prices, links, images, etc. Each click creates a new field.
Switch to the Preview tab to see extracted data in a table. All matching elements on the page are highlighted so you can verify accuracy.
Scrape the current page or configure pagination for multi-page extraction. Track progress in real-time with the status bar.
Download results as CSV or Excel from the Export tab.
Auto detection
Click the Auto Detect button and the extension will scan the page for repeating patterns. It automatically identifies:
- HTML tables with headers and rows
- Ordered and unordered lists
- CSS grid and flexbox repeating patterns
- Card-based layouts with similar child elements
Detected fields are automatically named based on context — the extension recognizes common patterns like prices, titles, ratings, and URLs.
Field management
Each field you add can be customized:
- Name — label for the column in your export
- Selector — CSS selector targeting the element (auto-generated by the picker)
- Attribute — what to extract:
textContent,href,src, or any HTML attribute - Type — data type: text, link, image, number, or html
You can add up to 20 fields per recipe. Fields can be reordered, renamed, or deleted at any time.
Pagination support
For multi-page scraping, configure one of three pagination modes:
- Click Next — automatically clicks a "Next" button between pages
- URL Pattern — navigates using a URL template with a page number placeholder
- Infinite Scroll — scrolls down and waits for new content to load
