Our Clay Chrome extension can scrape essentially any website on the internet and export the scraped data back to a clay table. However, sometimes a site may not be picked up by our auto-scraper, which means mapping it yourself may be your best option. Here's how to do it:

Open up the Clay Chrome Extension.Click on the "Select Data" tab on the upper right portion of the tab.Click "Create Recipe and Select Data"Click "Select Data to Add From Page" and then "Select a List"Select two different items on the list for Clay to detect

Then, click "Select a list item attribute to add"From there, click on an attribute you want to add, name it, make sure you select the right type (text, image, link, etc.)Do this with every attribute you want mapped.Save your recipe and name it.If you want to scrape an individual page, follow these steps:

Open up the Clay Chrome Extension.Click on the "Select Data" tab on the upper right portion of the tab.Click "Create Recipe and Select Data"Click "Select Data to Add From Page" and then "Select an Single Attribute"
