A Twitter web scraper example robot

A Twitter web scraper robot. Stores tweets (screenshot and text).

When run, the robot will:

• open a real web browser
• accept the cookie notice if it appears
• hide distracting UI elements
• scroll down to load dynamic content
• collect the latest tweets by a given Twitter user
• create a file system directory by the name of the Twitter user
• store the text content of each tweet in separate files in the directory
• store a screenshot of each tweet in the directory

Because Twitter blocks requests coming from the cloud, this robot can only be executed on a local machine (or triggered from the cloud with Robocorp App).

See Web scraper robot for detailed information about the robot!
