I am trying to grab data from a webpage, but when I go to the url, the first screen requires me to click one of two buttons. After clicking one of them, it then proceeds to the desired page. My question is how can I use webwrite or something else to tell MATLAB to click on one of the buttons.

If I use web(), I can click on the button but I need to do it programically. I can look at the page source of that button page but I'm not familiar enough with what I'm looking at.

Some more info:

When I go to the first url and click the button, this is what the web developer tool returns:

Request URL: https://www......... <url here>

Request Method: POST

Request URL: https://www......... <url here>

Request Method: GET

I think I can use webwrite to pass the HTTP requests, but do I use the POST or GET and do I use those urls in my matlab function?
