Scraping a Google Doc

The website scraper is also able to see and scrape all of the text data from a Google Doc

1. Introduction & Objective

How to connect Agent Supply (a scraping/automation tool) to a Google Doc so that structured data can be pulled automatically from that document into Agent Supply’s system.


2. Prepare Your Google Doc

  • Open the Google Doc you want to use (can be a table, list, etc.).

  • Click “Share”, and under link settings, choose “Anyone with the link can view”.

    • This ensures Agent Supply can access the document without login issues.


3. Modify the Google Doc URL

  • Copy the document link, which normally ends in something like:

    rubyCopiarEditarhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/your-doc-id/edit#gid=0
  • Replace the ending (/edit#gid=0) with:

    arduinoCopiarEditar/export?format=csv
  • The new link should look like:

    perlCopiarEditarhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/your-doc-id/export?format=csv

4. Configure Agent Supply

  • Go to your Agent Supply dashboard.

  • Create a new data source or scraper agent.

  • Paste the modified Google Docs CSV link as the data input URL.


5. Run the Agent

  • Activate the agent.

  • Agent Supply fetches and parses the CSV from your Google Doc.

  • You’ll see the structured data (rows and columns) in the results panel.


6. Review & Export

  • Use Agent Supply’s interface to:

    • Preview data

    • Filter or transform it

    • Export it to other tools (e.g., CSV, Notion, Airtable, APIs)
