Hi Peter, thank you for reaching out. I’m not entirely sure what you’re referring to here. Just to clarify, are you looking to put together a list of companies that sell their products on Faire here?

For this specific use case, I suggest that you use Clay's Chrome extensions. Here's where you can get the extension. You can use the extension on any list you find, which you may want to import to clay, when browsing the internet. Here's a videoshowing you how you can build Clay tables using the extension.

Do you mind sending the link to the table so we can take a look? https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/1171717996/ac7729f84b426e1d0358af02/image.png?expires=1731359700&signature=97c37d9d9083e5d2176683772b68a0aeef246bd6d805b5ba27157dfcd1c17768&req=dSEgF85%2FmohWX%2FMW1HO4zYTywSr%2FA54R2BKsam%2FhVPsOog%3D%3D%0A You’ll be limited to the pages you’re scraping in this setup. This means you’ll need to run the Chrome extension manually for each individual page you want to retrieve data from. However, for Anthropologie, this shouldn’t be an issue since all the brands from A to Z are conveniently listed on a single page.

I see the issue here - due to the way this website's code is structured, you'll need to create a separate recipe for each section of your table—for example, one for A, one for B, and so on.

You should run some tests, but that the same process may need to be executed for those tables as well, yes.
