API Documentation

Use the ScrapingLabs API to access comprehensive data and seamlessly integrate your product into the workflows of dozens of devoted ScrapingLabs users.

ScrapingLabs is a high-performance web scraping API designed to tackle the typical challenges faced by web developers when extracting data from e-commerce, social networking, or various other websites. ScrapingLabs operates as an API-first SaaS, available through subscription plans that offer API Credits.

Key Features of ScrapingLabs:

  • Anti-scraping Protection: Utilizing a high-performance scraping engine and Chrome TLS fingerprinting, ScrapingLabs effectively circumvents numerous anti-scraping mechanisms commonly found on websites.
  • JavaScript Challenges: Modern websites often rely heavily on JavaScript for content rendering. The /scrape/browser engine of ScrapingLabs can interact with these pages, execute JavaScript, intercept AJAX requests, and even capture screenshots.
  • Proxy Management: ScrapingLabs uses a rotating pool of proxies from diverse regions, ensuring higher availability and reducing the risk of IP bans.
  • Data Extraction: Extracting valuable data from raw HTML can be complex. With the Cheerio Extractor functions, users can efficiently parse HTML and extract meaningful data without manual intervention.
  • Different set of scraping engines: ScrapingLabs offers different scraping engines to cater to different use cases. The /scrape/html engine is ideal for static websites, while the /scrape/browser engine is perfect for dynamic websites.
