Your first collection
Get started with TabParcel for Chrome.
Once TabParcel is installed, start with a page you can access. The extension does the collecting; you decide what to keep.
First, a note on installation.
The extension is in development. A public Chrome Web Store installation link has not been added to this website yet.
This guide explains the current workflow. An installation link will be added when it is available.
Open a page worth keeping.
Use a normal webpage you have permission to access. If it requires a login, sign into that website first. Pin TabParcel from Chrome’s extensions menu so it is easy to reach.
For Extract current page and Send to, compatible versions also require signing into TabParcel and an active access period. First-time provider identities receive 7 days; recreating a deleted account does not restart the signup trial. Check your account page for the expiry and any available free renewal.
Keep the source tab open while working with content that depends on its page or login session.
Chrome’s internal pages, the extension store and protected content can restrict extraction.
Pick the right tool for the find.
Click the TabParcel icon. Choose a general tool for text, images, tables or captures. On a supported Instagram page, use “Extract this page” to open its dedicated media view.
The tool opens a workbench. Preview the results, select items and use the editing or filtering controls available there. Scroll the original page and extract again when more content needs to load.
Need a visual record instead? Compare visible-area, selected-area and full-page screenshots.
Download it. Or copy the useful part.
Choose a supported export format and download through Chrome. Files normally go into a TabParcel subfolder in your configured download location.
Download
Keep the original file or an exported document. The available formats depend on the tool.
Copy
Copy text, HTML, an image or file addresses. Check the tool’s output before pasting.
To receive a PDF, open Chrome’s print dialog and select the TabParcel print destination. Choosing Chrome’s own “Save as PDF” follows Chrome’s separate save flow.
Send files to an open cloud folder.
The complete cloud sending guide covers account checks, folder preparation, confirmation and uncertain uploads.
- Open the destination. In another tab, sign into Google Drive, Dropbox or Box and open the receiving folder.
- Choose your files. In the TabParcel workbench, select up to five items, each no larger than 100 MiB.
- Use “Send to…”. Select the destination tab. Review its folder and account, and grant the requested website permissions when needed.
- Keep the tabs available. The extension reads the source and hands each file to the destination webpage in order.
- Check the result. Allow the target confirmation stage to finish. If the result is uncertain, inspect the receiving folder before retrying.
Download it first, then upload it through the cloud website. Server-side large-file transfers are not available in the current build.
