Daily Webscraping with a zipcode

[opaganini3]

Hi!

I was wondering if there is a way to download a file daily, that involves inputting a zipcode and then clicking the excel download button.

Thank you!!!

Hello @opaganini3 ,

You can definetly download directly to alteryx and perform webscraping.

You just need to use the download tool. If you want, you could also create an application which by typing the zip code (if this is the way you access the darta on the URL) it gets you the data needed.

If this post helps, then please consider Accept it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

Thank you for that! I am pretty new to alteryx. How would I create an application to do the zipcode typing?
