Web scraping tips

[JasonByrne]

Hi bubblers,
My whole app is now relying on database from a council website that shows some data when a postcode is enterd.
I managed to get database with all the postcodes, lsoa,msoa, parish, town etc more than 1k record.
The council don’t mind sharing thd data but they said they don’t have the time or staff.
Before i give up i found a topic about something called scraping which pulls data from another website.
Please, if anyone knows if that would ever work would be so appreciated.
The website procrss is like this

[Input-Postcode] [submit-button]
[Dropdown menu- house number] [submit-button]

When both above buttons pressed the url parameter goes like ?postcode=ABCD&usp=123466

In the page the is a button when clicked shows the data i need

[Show data]

It’s a bit unclear what is going on and what you need. Maybe use Ai refine the post and question?

I’ve been using a linkedin email extractor for pulling verified contacts straight into my CRM, and it saved me a ton of time chasing down leads by hand. The built‑in verification kept my bounce rate low, and the CSV export made outreach way smoother. The free credits were enough for me to test things out before going all in.
