I set up a zap to scrape SAM.gov for opportunities.   the zap is successful but no information is captured. so no error showing but no information is captured i used webhooks “GET” and the API is correct.

Hi ​@Moe Motaab 

For us to have more info, post screenshots showing how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in the CONFIGURE tab while in EDIT mode.

Looking to improve this by narrowing down the search and capturing the link of the opportunity. not sure if i could us other apps like firecrawl. i understand that gov websites are difficult to get information from

Firecrawl, Tavily, Browser-Use, Manus (API / MCP), etc should all be able to do this. Though yes sites are tricky even blocking automations when they use Cloudflare. But there should be a tool like above that will visit the site and get what you need using Prompts (not code) to explain what you want to do and get some data out of it. There are a lot of these now that ai has made it easier to use Playwright and Puppeteer (I think that is the other one) to do more advanced headless Chromium browsing.

Good luck, interesting idea!
