Edit Workflows

Pline’s Edit Workflow feature allows you to modify Custom or Prebuilt workflows, ensuring your data extraction adapts to your needs. Accessible via the platform and browser extension, it offers flexibility and control.

Prebuilt Workflows are required to use this feature.

Editing Via Browser Extension

Follow these simple steps to edit an existing workflow using the Pline browser extension.

Open the Pline browser extension window and click "Get Started" in either mode.

Navigate to the My Workflows section and select the workflow you want to edit.

Click on the three dots and choose Edit Workflow.

Pline will automatically navigate to the website, and you can now add, delete, or rename fields as required.

After editing the fields, select the appropriate pagination type based on the website.

For example, Amazon uses the Next button as the pagination type.

Review the sample data and run the workflow by clicking the Update and Run button.

Pline automatically extracts data until the page ends or you click Stop Collection.

After stopping the extraction, you can:

  • Preview the sample data to verify the extraction.

  • Download the data in CSV format.

  • Visit the Pline Dashboard for further analysis.

Access the complete dataset or download it as a CSV or JSON file from the Dataset tab in the Pline Platform Dashboard.
