This book is a comprehensive guide for integrating web data into Excel, ideal for both beginners and experienced users. It begins by introducing essential concepts like HTML and JSON, laying the foundation for web data extraction. Readers start by performing static and dynamic web queries directly in Excel, building confidence in handling foundational tasks. As the journey continues, the book explores advanced automation using VBA and Selenium. Readers learn to interact with web elements, handle authenticated requests, and navigate modern challenges like working with iframes, downloading files, and creating PDFs. Key techniques, including using XPath and CSS selectors, are explained to streamline data extraction. Chapters also address overcoming VBA’s limitations with modern browsers like Microsoft Edge, providing practical solutions. In the final chapters, Power Query is introduced as a powerful tool for connecting and transforming web data. Readers explore both direct and advanced methods to integrate Excel with web sources efficiently. By the end, readers will master practical workflows, combining VBA, Selenium, and Power Query to automate and simplify web data extraction in Excel.
