Experience Level: Intermediate
Description of analysis: We need someone to scrape prices off our own website and store them in a Google Sheet. There are live prices for precious metals on our site and we would like them checked and recorded every 10 minutes, with a time and date stamp for reference.
The table can be found on the home page of our website (royalmintbullion.com) with a ‘bid’ and ‘ask’ price for both gold and silver, as well as a change value. I would like a script to scrape and record these in a Google spreadsheet (automatically) on a continuous basis, every 10 minutes. If possible, there should be an option to limit this recording to 1000 values so that the spreadsheet does not get too large (i.e. delete old values when the number of rows exceed 1000).
I have a sample spreadsheet, which I’ve attached, though the finished project should be a live, Google Sheet. The images at the top of the sample sheet are just there to visually reference where the cells originate from – they do not need to be in the Google Sheet version.
