@bang-ibe Thank you for your willingness to contribute. The getting started workflow is designed to introduce users to line protocol and walks through writing line protocol directly to InfluxDB. Scrapers are another method for collected and writing data to InfluxDB, but they are considered a a secondary method and shouldn't be part of the getting started workflow. Instructions for using scrapers are provided here: https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v2/write-data/no-code/scrape-data/manage-scrapers/create-a-scraper/

Thank you again for your willingness to contribute, but I'm going to close this PR.
