A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you start.
The useful details, without the small print.
Will it work with every website?
RowGather supports standard HTML tables, common framework tables and ARIA grids, plus repeated link lists, cards, definition lists and aligned CSS grids. It can read same-origin frames and open Shadow DOM. Canvas, cross-origin frames and some ambiguous layouts remain unsupported; virtual scrolling requires stable record identifiers.
Can it extract every page of a table?
It supports next-page buttons, load more, manual pagination and supported virtual scrolling. The sidebar may close while web collection continues; keep the source tab and browser open. Check source totals, limits and page behavior. Matching counts alone do not certify completeness.
Can I change the column names and values?
Yes. Rename and reorder columns before saving. Saved tasks support full pagination, search, batch filtering and cell corrections with undo. Original values remain in task backups and Excel edit records. Stop active continuous extraction before changing saved data.
Can I extract a list without column names?
Yes. Each detected record stays on its own row. Link directories keep text and URLs separately. When there is no explicit header, the first record is retained and temporary column names can be edited. For headerless CSV or TSV, uncheck “First row contains column names”.
Does it work with scanned PDFs?
This version works with text-based PDFs. You can select regions and adjust column boundaries, but complex layouts still need review. OCR for scanned or image-only documents is not included.
Is my table data uploaded?
The current extension processes webpage tables and PDFs on your device. Tasks and rules are stored in your browser profile. It has no cloud upload or telemetry. Back up your tasks before uninstalling or changing browser profiles.
How do I install the preview?
Download the latest published ZIP, extract it, and load the folder containing manifest.json through Developer mode in Chrome or Chromium-based Edge 130 or newer. It is an unpacked release candidate, not a store installation. Free single-table extraction needs no account; Pro features require a paid license.
Can collection continue after I close the sidebar?
Yes, for web collection: keep the source tab and browser open. Closing the source tab, restarting the browser or a long suspension pauses the task and keeps saved batches. PDF processing still needs its workspace open.
What can I try for free?
Single-table extraction and individual exports have no daily quota or commercial row cap, within device safety limits. Save one task and try continuous collection up to 3 pages/batches or 500 cumulative rows per task, whichever is reached first. The next whole batch is not saved if it would exceed the row allowance. Text PDFs support up to 3 pages per operation. Pro adds larger continuous jobs, multiple tasks, saved rules and batch export.
Guides
READY WHEN YOU AREYour next directory,
Your next directory,
without the manual copying.
Start with individual exports and one local task. Manual appends and continuous extraction share a trial of 3 pages/batches or 500 rows per task. Pro adds larger jobs, reusable rules and multi-table exports.
