in this video we'll be using integromat's text parser function you'll learn how to pass text without code hence you'll be able to manipulate data and more the main tool we'll be using in this project is integra map you can sign up for an account at integromap.com the link is in the description we'll be using integromat's free plan for this project however if you exceed the limits defined on their pricing page you will need to upgrade your integramer account also we'll be using google sheets we'll enter our outputted data into a sheet for convenience i've time stamped the video in the description before jumping into integromat let's quickly format a google sheet you'll want to create your own google sheet i'm going to title this sheet link analysis and i'll title the sheet links for this project i'm envisioning wanting to analyze links on a web page it could be for seo purposes competitor insights or something else analyzing links manually would take a lot of time hence using integromat to do it quicker in the first column i'm going to enter links for formatting i'm going to make the header bold i'll center the entire sheet i'll freeze the top row and i'll fill the first row in a light gray we can now switch over to integroma and begin setting up the text parser integromat labels automations as scenarios hence to create our automation we must click on scenario then click create a new scenario now you'll want to search for http and select that then you'll want to search for text parser and select that and you'll want to search for google sheets and select that from here click continue we can now begin defining the steps for our text parser automation first we'll want to configure http let's click on http we can then define the action event for this project we'll want it to make a request now we can define the url we want to reach for this project i'm going to enter the url of one of my articles i never learned how to read and i'll paste that into url and ensure that the method is set to get now click ok we'll now want to add the next module and that module is text parser and we'll want to set the action event which is labeled as transformers here to get elements from html and we want that next to http request so that's the next function in our automation now we'll want to set the element type to link reason being we want our text parser to return all of the links on the web page for us and now under html from our http request in the previous function we'll want to draw in the data hence ensure that you have that selected now click ok we'll now want to add the next module and that is google sheets and for an action event we'll want to set that to add a row if you haven't connected your google account you'll be prompted to do so once you've connected it to integromat you'll see the following so let's go through what must get done here for mode make sure that you've selected select spreadsheet and sheet under spreadsheet you'll want to select the google sheet you created in the case of this project that sheet was titled link analysis she you'll also want to select the sheet within that google sheet which we labeled as links and then we want to select if the table has headers or not and we created a header for our table links which we can see here now we can select in which column we want our data to get inputted and we want the data to get inputted into column a so once you've selected that you'll want to then include the attribute ahref because that's what we want inserted into our google sheet remember our text parser is making a http request and then it's passing the links which we want to input into our google sheet once you've done that click ok of course we don't want our text parser to get every link on the page i.e page navigation etc we only want http and https links in the body of the article hence we must define a filter in integromat it's powerful and easy in between the text parser and google sheets what you'll want to do is set up a filter let's create our desired filter to begin let's label the filter something relevant let's call it http slash https filter now let's define our conditions we want to run a check against the attribute href which is the link and we want to ensure that the attribute starts with h t t p s then you have the colon and then two forward slashes let's also set an or for this rule too that means the link can meet either of the two conditions we set to pass hence get outputted to our google sheet for the or rule what we want to do is again test it against the attribute href and again we want to make sure that it starts with but this time we want to enter h ttp then of course the colon and two forward slashes a great use for this filter would be if you wanted to check if any links on specific web pages started with http and not https https is preferred because it's safer doing that check manually will be tedious this saves you from that now click ok let's define when our text parser automation should run along the bottom click schedule settings let's set the run scenario to once if you were doing this regularly you could set up intervals for when the text parser automation should run now click ok let's also click the wand to auto align our functions and along the top let's rename our function to text parser let's now test our automation click run once if you created the automation correctly you should get the output of the links inserted into the google sheet that you created so if we switch over to google sheets you'll see the links that are on the page for the article and they've got outputted correctly into our google sheet from here you could analyze the links as you wish whether it's for seo etc when that working we can go back to integra map we can now exit editing because our automation is created and if we go back to the scenarios page you'll see that our text parser automation is there to use again when we wish i hope learning how to pass text in integromat saves you much time this project is now complete i hope you enjoyed it if you like this no-code project please give this video a like and if
