Power Platform Community Forum Thread Details

Hi Team,

I would like to know the web scraping limit on web pages with Power Automate Desktop. For example, I want to scrape data from the Indeed website. In that, I want to scrap job profile data such as Job title, Description, Location etc. Also, I will go to the next pages of that job and scrap data. Now, my question is there any limit to scraping data using the Power Automate Desktop(PAD) flow? Kindly provide a brief info on this. Because I want to explore this process with many job portal web applications.

Thanks,

Siva

As per my understanding, there are no restrictions on PAD's scraping mechanism. Even if you find that the built-in scraping mechanism doesn't fully meet your needs for a particular use case, there are several alternative options we can explore. The effectiveness of the scraping process largely depends on the website or application you're interacting with and the underlying technology it employs.
