There are two main ways to #scrape a #website, either actively or passively.
Active scraping is the process of using a trigger to actively scrape the already loaded webpage.
Passive scraping is the process of having the tool navigate to the webpage and scrape it.
The main difference is how one is getting to the loaded #webpage.
