The PostgreSQL integration lets you export Octoparse task results into a PostgreSQL database. It is useful for teams that need reliable structured storage for extracted web data.

​
When to use PostgreSQL

Use PostgreSQL when:
  • Data needs to support analytics or reporting
  • Your team already uses PostgreSQL as a central data store
  • Extracted records need to be joined with other datasets
  • Data volume is too large for spreadsheet workflows
  • Recurring exports need a database destination

​
Setup workflow

1

Prepare the destination table

Define the columns that should receive Octoparse fields.
2

Check access details

Confirm host, port, database name, user credentials, and network access.
3

Map task fields

Match each extracted field to the correct PostgreSQL column.
4

Run a test export

Verify that records are inserted correctly and that special characters display as expected.
5

Schedule or automate

Enable recurring export only after the test output is correct.

​
Things to verify

For production workflows, coordinate with the database owner before enabling recurring exports.
