Abstract
A system for automated acquisition of content from an application includes a link extraction controller that receives an identification of a target state of the application directly reachable from an intermediate state and a specification of a user interface element of the intermediate state actuated by a user to arrive at the target state. After navigating to the intermediate state in an executing instance of the application and extracting a tree of user interface widgets, the link extraction controller identifies widget sub-trees that have at least a threshold level of commonality with a reference widget sub-tree that includes the specified user interface element. The link extraction controller adds states, including the target state, reachable by user actuation of the identified widget sub-trees to a state list. A scraper module extracts text and metadata from each of the states in the state list for storage in a data store.
