About UsWho we are and what we do.Web Data API: Turn Any Website Into One API Call
Send a URL, get clean, structured JSON back in seconds. Proxies, rendering, retries, and parsing are handled on our side, so you never maintain a scraper again.
One API Key, Six Endpoints
Use the generic extraction endpoint for any URL, or a purpose-built endpoint with a ready-made schema for the categories teams ask for most.
Universal extraction
Send any public URL and get structured JSON back, with or without a named schema.
Ecommerce & marketplace
Product, price, variant, and availability data from retail and marketplace listings.
Real estate listings
Listings, prices, agent details, and property attributes from listing portals and brokerage sites.
Job postings
Postings, salary ranges, locations, and employer details from job boards and career sites.
Batch requests
Submit up to 1,000 URLs in one call and collect results together when the batch finishes.
Custom schemas
Define your own field map once, then reference it by name on every future request.
From API Key to First Response in Three Steps
No SDK to install, no infrastructure to provision. If your language can make an HTTP request, you are already integrated.
Get a key
Sandbox keys are issued the same day, with live responses and no contract required.
Call the endpoint
One GET with a URL and an optional schema name. Nothing else to configure.
Ship the response
Typed JSON goes straight into your app, warehouse, or model pipeline.
curl -X GET "https://api.apiscrapy.com/v2/extract" \ -G --data-urlencode "url=https://example.com/product/8421" \ --data-urlencode "schema=product" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $APISCRAPY_KEY"
import os, requests
r = requests.get(
"https://api.apiscrapy.com/v2/extract",
params={"url": PRODUCT_URL, "schema": "product"},
headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.environ['APISCRAPY_KEY']}"},
timeout=30,
)
print(r.json()["data"]["price"])const url = new URL("https://api.apiscrapy.com/v2/extract");
url.searchParams.set("url", productUrl);
url.searchParams.set("schema", "product");
const res = await fetch(url, {
headers: { Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.APISCRAPY_KEY}` },
});
const { data } = await res.json();$query = http_build_query([
"url" => $productUrl,
"schema" => "product",
]);
$ch = curl_init("https://api.apiscrapy.com/v2/extract?$query");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ["Authorization: Bearer $key"]);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$data = json_decode(curl_exec($ch), true)["data"];The hard parts of scraping, handled behind one endpoint.
You call an endpoint. We run the browsers, rotate the proxies, retry the failures, and validate the output before it reaches your code.
Headless rendering built in
JavaScript-heavy pages render fully before extraction, no browser fleet on your side.
Proxy rotation & anti-bot
Residential and datacenter pools, fingerprinting, and CAPTCHA handling included.
Automatic retries
Transient failures are retried on our side before a response is returned.
Idempotent, versioned API
Pinned to /v2, with deprecation notice periods so upgrades never surprise you.
Webhooks & async jobs
Long jobs return a job id and post to your callback URL the moment they complete.
Usage alerts & logs
Per-key request logs, request usage, and alerts before you hit a rate ceiling.
For Production Volume: How an Integration Comes Together
Scope
A short call to confirm sources, fields, volume, and response shape.
Test
A sandbox key with real responses from your own target URLs.
Test real responses before you commit to anything.
Integrate
Point your service at the endpoint and map the response into your schema.
Scale
Raise limits as volume grows, with monitoring and support on our side.
Responses in the Exact Shape You Define
Pass a schema name or your own field map, and every response comes back typed, normalized, and consistent, whichever site it came from.
Named schemas out of the box
product, property, job, article, review, and company, ready to use today.
Custom field maps
Define the fields you need once and reference them by name on every call.
Typed and normalized
Prices as numbers, dates as ISO 8601, booleans as booleans, across every source.
Versioned responses
Schema changes are versioned, so a new field never breaks an existing job.
Need a field that is not listed? Define it once and it is in every response.
Who Uses the Web Data API
Product & app teams
Add live web data to a feature without owning any collection infrastructure.
Backend & platform engineers
Replace a fleet of brittle scrapers with one endpoint and a rate limit.
AI & ML teams
Fetch training and retrieval data on demand, already structured and typed.
Pricing & market intel teams
Poll competitor listings as often as your strategy requires.
Performance and Limits, Published Up Front
Every plan ships with written commitments on uptime, latency, and throughput, so you can size your integration before you build it.
Monitored and reported, not promised.
Standard pages, from request to JSON.
Default ceiling, raised on request.
With async callbacks on completion.
Why Teams Call Our API Instead of Running Their Own Crawlers
Site changes, proxies, and anti-bot escalation are our problem, not your on-call rotation.
The same request shape works for every site you need.
Failed requests are never billed, so cost tracks delivered data.
If an integration outgrows self-serve, the same team can run it as a managed data feed with a written SLA.
Enterprise-Grade Security and Compliance
ISO 27001:2022 and ISO 9001 certified, CMMI Level 3 appraised, and GDPR compliant.
Azure-hosted, with AWS, GCP, and private-cloud support.
Full data ownership: every dataset is yours, with IP transfer written into the contract.
Encrypted in transit and at rest, with role-based access and full audit logs.
Web Scraping API Questions Developers Ask
What is a web scraping API?
A web scraping API lets your code request data from a website without running your own scraper. You send a URL, and the API handles proxies, page rendering, blocking, and parsing, then returns the data in a structured format such as JSON. The APISCRAPY Web Data API returns typed fields in a schema you choose, so there is no parsing code on your side.
How is a web scraping API different from a proxy API?
A proxy API routes your requests through its IP addresses and returns the raw page. You still write and maintain the parsing code for every site. A web scraping API also does the parsing and returns structured fields. The Web Data API works the second way.
How fast is a single request?
Median response time is about 2.4 seconds for standard pages, and under 8 seconds for JavaScript-heavy pages that need full browser rendering. Long-running jobs can be submitted asynchronously with a callback URL.
Do I have to write parsers for each site?
No. Pass a schema name and the API returns normalized fields regardless of the source layout. If you need custom fields, we map them once and they appear in every response after that.
What happens when a site changes its markup?
Our monitoring detects structural changes and our team updates the extraction logic on our side. Your endpoint, parameters, and response shape stay the same.
How is usage priced?
By successful request, with volume tiers. Failed requests are not billed. You get a written quote after a short scoping call, and sandbox access to test before committing.
Can I batch or schedule requests?
Yes. Submit up to 1,000 URLs per batch call, or let us run the schedule for you and push results to a webhook or your warehouse instead.
Is there an SDK?
The API is plain REST over HTTPS with JSON responses, so no SDK is required. We provide copy-paste examples for cURL, Python, Node.js, PHP, Java, and Go.
Is it legal to use a web scraping API?
Using an API to collect publicly available data is generally lawful in the US, the EU, and the UK, but you are responsible for how you use the data. The Web Data API collects only what is visible without logging in, and our terms of use set out what the API can and cannot be used for.
Should I use the Web Data API or a managed service?
Use the API when your team wants to call data on demand from its own code. Use our managed web scraping or data as a service offering when you want us to run the whole pipeline, including schedules, custom fields, quality checks, and delivery on an SLA.
