Scraping Single Site for data_ Paste to Google Sheets_ Copy from Google Sheets
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
This project requires an experienced data miner to scrape data from one website. This information is critical to conduct a detailed data analysis that will inform our next steps.
SKILLS
- Proficiency in multiple programming languages known for web scraping (Python, JavaScript, etc.)
- Previous projects involving data scraping for crypto or related fields
QUICK JOB SUMMARY
The overall intent will be to copy specific text on a webpage, paste the text onto a Google-sheets spreadsheet, Copy and paste a few calculated results in Google-sheets, then use simple programming logic to determine whether or not to send an email alert to the customer based on the final results (Note: All spreadsheet calculations have already been made. All external programming has NOT been create.)
EXPANDED SUMMARY
A browser will be opened and then a link/url/webpage will be accessed inside of that browser.
The “Find” function will be used in the browser to locate specific text on the webpage. [This involves using automated key strokes]
The highlight-function will select a group of text and the selected text will be copied.
A specific Google-sheets spreadsheet will be opened. The selected text will be pasted into Google sheets.
Within Google Sheets, execute additional copy and paste actions. Approx 5 automated actions will occur in Google sheets. The final sought result will be the content in a single cell in Google sheets. This cell will either be blank or have unique text. If the cell is blank, then no further action is needed for that trial. If the subject cell has text content, then an email will be sent to a specified email address and it will include a standard body message along with the text from the subject cell.
NOTES
All programs and functions to take place on a remote server.
Programmer to consult customer on the best and most inexpensive way to execute requested functions. (What apps to use etc.)
The program will run every period. The duration of a period will be set in the code.
A dashboard should be created to make changes to a handful of inputs OR the actual code should be easy to modify as needed by the customer. Parameters that need to be easily adjustable include: url address, frequency of code execution, length of time to hold keys down, and more.

DETAILED SPECS: Will be provided after quotes are received. Quotes can be updated after the detailed specs are provided; however, with my experience, most of the necessary content for a good quote is shown above.
RISKS: Dexscreener.com has a 'Human-usage' security check upon first entry, I am unsure how this impacts the operability of the execution of the requested program.
