This project uses the Apify platform to scrape data from web pages, collect metadata, and store results in an Apify dataset. It features functions for managing date ranges, encoding identifiers, and handling large datasets, aiming to efficiently extract and store structured data for analysis.
You can access the General Purpose Web Scraping and Metadata Extraction programmatically from your own Python applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
