Key Features and Highlights

This workflow leverages Selenium browser automation technology combined with OpenAI’s GPT-4 model to achieve intelligent web data scraping and analysis. It supports data collection from web pages both with and without login status (via session cookie injection). The workflow can automatically search for pages related to the target topic, intelligently filter valid URLs, and extract specified information through screenshots and image analysis. It incorporates multiple error-handling mechanisms to ensure the stability and efficiency of the scraping process.

Core Problems Addressed

  • Traditional web scraping is often blocked by anti-scraping mechanisms, making it difficult to obtain data behind login or dynamically loaded content.
  • Manual data collection is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and struggles to guarantee data accuracy and completeness.
  • There is a need to automatically filter and extract relevant data from massive information sources to improve data utilization efficiency.

Application Scenarios

  • Monitoring competitor web information, such as GitHub project stars, follower counts, etc.
  • Automated collection of product details and review data from e-commerce platforms.
  • Scraping member-exclusive content that requires login.
  • Extracting structured key information from web pages through AI-powered intelligent analysis.
  • High-quality data scraping scenarios requiring evasion of anti-scraping mechanisms.

Main Process Steps

  1. Receive Webhook request to obtain the target topic, website domain, target data fields, and optional cookies.
  2. Perform Google search for the specified domain and topic to acquire a list of relevant webpage URLs.
  3. Extract HTML content and filter valid URLs containing the target domain and topic.
  4. Determine if a specific target URL is provided; if not, use Google search results; if yes, use the specified URL directly.
  5. Create a Selenium browser session, configuring a Chrome environment with no automation traces.
  6. Decide whether to inject cookies based on their availability to enable logged-in access.
  7. Visit the target webpage, capture screenshots, and send the screenshots in Base64 format to OpenAI GPT-4 for intelligent image analysis.
  8. Use OpenAI’s information extraction algorithms to accurately extract the predefined target data fields.
  9. Assess whether anti-scraping blocking has occurred based on analysis results; return corresponding error messages if exceptions arise.
  10. Terminate the Selenium session and release resources upon completion.
