Algolia Crawler
The Crawler is an automated web scraping program. When given a set of start URLs, it visits and extracts content from those pages. It then visits URLs these pages link to, and the process repeats itself for all linked pages. With little configuration the Crawler can populate and maintain Algolia indices for you by periodically extracting content from your web pages.
- Quickly aggregates your distributed content.
- Automatically and periodically updates your aggregated content.
- Enables you to quickly and accurately search through your records (and provide this same search experience to your clients).
