In this video, I should you how to use the puppeteer npm package (pptr) to extract data from a web page.

We walk through one of the most common use cases for web scraping - lead generation - by scraping company names, URLs, and booth numbers from the exhibitor list of the upcoming Autodesk University conference.

For example, if you were a technology vendor trying to secure tech partners for cross-referral relationships, such a list would be useful for ensuring you/your sales team met with every relevant exhibitor at the conference.

This is the web page we scrape in the tutorial: https://conferences.autodesk.com/flow/autodesk/au2023/exhibitorcatalog/page/catalog?tab.exhibitorcatalogtabs=1692727114397001IwvT

And this is the Puppeteer website: https://pptr.dev/
