Features of Web Crawler API

  • Blazing Fast Performance: Outperforms many paid services.

  • Output Formats: Supports JSON, cleaned HTML, and Markdown formats.

  • Multi-URL Crawling: Crawl multiple URLs simultaneously.

  • Media Extraction: Extracts images, audio, and video tags.

  • Link Extraction: Captures internal and external links.

  • Metadata Extraction: Retrieves metadata from web pages.

Notes

  • Basic Crawl: Performs a single-page crawl on the provided URL, ignoring max_pages.

  • Deep Crawl: Crawls multiple pages, respecting the max_pages limit. If max_pages is set to "All", "all", or "ALL", it will crawl all reachable pages from the provided URL.

  • Case Sensitivity: The max_pages value "All", "all", or "ALL" is case-insensitive and will trigger a full crawl of all pages when used with deep_crawl: "true".
