  • A webpage needs interactions before the data is available

How to use

  • Navigate to the webpage containing the data you want to extract
  • Open the Kadoa extension
  • If a webpage needs interactions before the data is available, record them so Kadoa can replay them later
  • Select one or more objects containing the data you’d like to extract
  • Review and refine the suggested fields
  • Your new workflow is ready

Troubleshooting

The extension does not open. This issue is most likely because the webpage has not yet finished loading. Please reload the page and wait until it is fully loaded. Unable to change anything on a webpage after opening the Kadoa extension Ensure the page has fully loaded and all elements you want to select are visible before clicking the Kadoa extension icon. This includes expanding any collapsed areas and closing any blocking popups. Unable to select the desired element because it is covered by nested elements Select any nested element, then click the arrow icon to select its parent element. The page reloads after closing the extension This is intended behavior. To make elements available for selection, Kadoa removes all event handlers from the page. The page is reloaded to restore these handlers.
