Dynamic Scraping

Dynamic Scraping

Dynamic Scraping is the process of extracting data from websites that require interaction or have dynamically generated content. This involves handling web pages that use JavaScript, AJAX, or other technologies to load content asynchronously, making traditional scraping techniques insufficient. Dynamic scraping often requires tools that can simulate user interactions, such as clicking buttons or filling out forms, to retrieve the desired data. Headless browsers like Puppeteer or Selenium are commonly used for dynamic scraping, as they can render web pages and execute JavaScript, allowing for the extraction of content that only appears after user interactions. This technique is essential for scraping modern, interactive websites and applications.
