Many sites use forms to filter data.

Behind forms are URL parameters.

Example search URL https://example.com/search?q=python&page=1

Requests with params ```python params = { "q": "python", "page": 1 }

res = requests.get("https://example.com/search", params=params) ```

Graph ```mermaid flowchart LR A[Params] --> B[Request URL] B --> C[Filtered Page] ```

Remember - Inspect form action URL - Rebuild it with params
