Content Grabber manages three types of data:

•Input data - is used to provide input values to an agent, such as input values for a web form or start URLs. See the topic Using Data Input  for more information.

•Internal data - An agent stores data extraction elements in an internal database while the agent is running. When the agent completes, this internal data will become external data. For more information, see the topic The Internal Database.

•External data - this is data that goes out to a specific export target. See the topic Exporting Data for more information about exporting data.

Distributing Data

If an agent is exporting data to a particular file type, such as a spreadsheet, then the agent can also send the file as an attachment to an email message to one or more recipients. The agent can also FTP the files to a remote computer. See the topic Distributing Data for more information.
