Hello, I would like to do the following:
Click link on open page → Scrape on the new page that opens → close the page → Click 2nd link on the initial list → Scrape on the new page that opens - close tab → … repeat until list of links ends.
I am able to make an automation that does this for the first link but I am not sure how to close tab and make it do it for the second link on the list.
Thanks
Jess

Hi @halimir123 , Welcome to the Bardeen Community
It sounds like you are wanting to scrape data from multiple links. Try looking at this guide to get you started:
You’ve got a list of URLs in Google Sheets you’d like to scrape data each site from within one automation - this is called a deep scraper.
First, you need to format the links in the Google Sheet so they have a header in row 1. Here’s an example of how it should look:

Now let’s tackle the Bardeen Automation Actions:
“Get Table from Google Sheet”:

This is just finding your Google Sheet that contains the whole list of websites that you’d like to scrape data from…
If you still need need some help, please provide us with more details/loom video/automation. Thank you!
