Glossary

The portal, the API and the assistant tools sometimes use different words for the same thing. This list ties them together.

Your data

Scraper. A saved way to read one source (a website, a file, a list of links or a sitemap) into rows. The portal also says automation, and in a few places “scrapper”. The API and MCP say scraper. See Read a website.
Group. A folder of scrapers whose rows belong together, for example the same products from several shops. Rules, schedules, exports and matching are set on the group. See Groups.
Run. One go of a scraper or a group. A run has a status, rows and errors. The API also calls it a job. See Runs and errors.
Row. One record, for example one product with its price.
Rule. A step that cleans or works out a value for every row, for example convert to EUR or price per unit. A group rule runs on every scraper of the group. See Rules for all scrapers.
Export. A file of rows. See Exports and delivery.

Match run. One go of Product Matcher over a group. You start it yourself. Before it starts, the most it can cost is held in your wallet. See Run a match.
Line. One comparison you draw between a column of your list and a column of a shop, for example name to name. See Set up a match.
Step. Lines are put in steps. Step 1 decides first, and a row it cannot decide goes to the next step. See Steps, Floor and Max.
Floor and Max. The two limits of a step. Under the Floor a row is no match. At or above the Max it is a match. In between it goes to review.
Review. The pairs in between, which you decide by hand. Your decisions stay on the next run. See Results and review.
Photo check. Comparing the product pictures as well as the text. It costs extra per 1,000 pictures. See Photo check.

Key. The secret text that lets code or an assistant act as you. A Read key looks at data. A Full key also changes things and starts runs. See Read or Full.
Wallet. Your prepaid balance in euros. A new account also gets 5 free requests. See Wallet and billing.
Micros. Amounts in answers end in Micros. 1,000,000 micros is EUR 1.
402. The answer when the wallet is too low. See Errors.

MCP. Model Context Protocol, the way an AI assistant calls Scrapewise as a set of tools. See Connect your assistant (MCP).
Tool. One thing an assistant can call. See MCP tools.
Idempotency key. A unique text you send with a call that changes something, so a retry is not done twice. See API basics.
correlationId. The number of one call, in every error answer. Send it to support, see Errors.
