Get All Text From Link
The Get All Text From Link node is designed to help you gather information from the web quickly. It takes a web address (URL), visits that page in the background, and returns every piece of readable text it finds.
This node is the perfect starting point for building a “Research Assistant” or a news aggregator, as it turns a messy web page into clean, searchable text.
How it works
Section titled “How it works”When this node runs, it opens the provided link in a hidden browser context. It intelligently ignores background “noise” like programming scripts or styling code, focusing only on the words a human would actually read on the screen.
