Automatically execute simple tasks in the browser?

Hi everyone,

I would like to (at least partially) automate one or more tasks in my job.

One of the tasks, for example, is to go to a job site and keep our job postings up to date (by editing -> next -> complete) and push them back up in the rankings. Of course, only those we're actually looking for.

This is a very small part of my job, but an annoying one.

I would also be willing to learn (whether HTML or a programming language or maybe there is already a simple program?).

If someone could point me in the right direction I would be grateful.

LG Jewlez

When it comes to automating only these three mouse clicks, there are, for example, AutoIt.

You may be able to search for a keyword, whereupon it is scrolled to the searched location and you can also search for specific colors or elements on the page. As long as these things are unmistakable, it might be an approach.

using OpenQA.Selenium;
using OpenQA.Selenium.Chrome;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        // ChromeDriver ggf. mit Pfadangabe instanziieren
        IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
        driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://www.deine-jobseite.de");

        // Beispiel: Login
        driver.FindElement(By.Id("username")).SendKeys("DeinBenutzername");
        driver.FindElement(By.Id("password")).SendKeys("DeinPasswort");
        driver.FindElement(By.Id("loginButton")).Click();

        // Beispiel: Jobangebote aktualisieren
        driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//button[text()='Bearbeiten']")).Click();
        driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//button[text()='Weiter']")).Click();
        driver.FindElement(By.XPath("//button[text()='Abschließen']")).Click();

        // Browser schließen
        driver.Quit();
    }
}

Note:

  • Install the Selenium.WebDriver package and the appropriate BrowserDriver (e.g. Selenium.Chrome.WebDriver).
  • Selectors (By.Id, By.XPath, By.CssSelector) adapt to the real page.

For this, ChatGPT is almost perfect, register free account and is good, explain to him that knows a lot of pages and tools ( sometimes ask me where), so if it’s like linkedIn you can definitely ask how the A) is the easiest thing to do B)whether it can handle it directly.

Probably a kind of browser extension would be good, then you can talk to ChatGPT times or run a compact JavaScript code in the browser via the console.
