Hi folks,
Thanks for taking the time to read. I need a (hopefully simple) windows app that will extract certain information from a website using the search and then output this in excel or csv or both.
It will work like this. Within the app I enter the search term and select the category and the 'what to search' from https://www.mobygames.com/search/quick
The tool will use the first result as that will be best fit. It will then use that to extract core elements e.g. covers, descriptions etc. but we can work through the finer details.
Finally it will extract all this data to excel/csv with each area e.g. Description, Title, Released, published etc being its own column.
Please PM me your quotes or ask any questions.
Thanks again.
I forgot to add, it's essential that I can add in a list of search term and select the category for it to use on the site e.g. I submit a list of search terms and it goes through one by one so i'll end up with an excel sheet of says 1500 rows if I had 1500 searches.
