Hi,

I wanted to understand if we can use Alteryx to scrap data from websites? is there any way or tweak using Alteryx ?

Hi @prashant007 

There are a lot of variables with this, but in some cases Alteryx can definitely get data from websites using the download tool. Here are a few links on the topic:

Make sure you understand the websites terms and conditions prior to doing any webscraping.
