Getting Started

    Welcome to the Scraper API. This guide covers everything you need to start extracting data.

    Requirements

    • A Scraper account — sign up to get free credits
    • Your API key from the dashboard

    Base URL

    All API requests use the following base URL:

    https://app.scrapering.com/api

    Your first request

    Pass your API key in the Authorization header:

    curl -X POST https://app.scrapering.com/api/parsing/url  \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{ "url": "https://scrapering.com", callbackUrl: "YOUR_CALLBACK_POST_ENDPOINT_URL" }'

    Receive a response on your callback endpoint

    The payload will be structured the following way:

    {
  "status": "ready",
  "scope": "url",
  "requestId": "5cfce409-1a30-4181-88eb-75b995499cd0",
  "data": {
    "url": "https://scrapering.com",
    "content": "<html lang=\"en\">...</html>",
    "cookies": [],
    "success": true,
    "time": "3.24"
  },
  "respondedAt": "2026-01-01T00:00:00.00Z"
}
