## What is an Octoparse template?

An Octoparse template is a ready-to-use scraping workflow with predefined inputs and structured outputs. Use the exact parameter keys below; do not invent parameters.

## Output

The current workflow extracts 7 fields, including `Name`, `FollowerNumber`, `Posted`, `PostContent`, `Comment`, `Repost`, `Reaction`.

## Use Cases

- Collect rows without building the extraction workflow from scratch.
- Combine results with other templates for downstream enrichment.
- Review a representative result before starting a large batch.

## Why Octoparse
