The call
Product pages are the shape the accounts fetch most here, with the country and token that succeed most often. Replace the placeholder path with a real product URL from the site.
curl "https://api.crawlbase.com/?token=YOUR_TOKEN&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.autoscout24.de%2Fexample-section%2Fexample-page%2Fexample-page"from crawlbase import CrawlingAPI api = CrawlingAPI({'token': 'YOUR_TOKEN'}) r = api.get('https://www.autoscout24.de/example-section/example-page/example-page') html = r['body']
const { CrawlingAPI } = require('crawlbase'); const api = new CrawlingAPI({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' }); const r = await api.get('https://www.autoscout24.de/example-section/example-page/example-page');

What breaks, and the fix
Of the failures since 14 Aug 2026, the site answered:
400: 56.4% of failures 400 means the site refused the fetch. Treat it like a block: retry once with the JavaScript token and the country the successful calls use, then stop.
0: 20.0% of failures A status of 0 is a request that never got an answer inside the timeout. Retry once with the JavaScript token if the pattern needs a browser.
424: 16.4% of failures 424 means the site refused the fetch. Treat it like a block: retry once with the JavaScript token and the country the successful calls use, then stop.
403: 7.3% of failures A 403 is the site refusing the exit. Set the country the successful calls use and retry once; a second 403 means the URL itself is protected.
Run it on a schedule
A catalogue refresh is a list of product URLs. Push it to the Crawler with a callback, let it pace the calls and retry what the site refuses, and read the results from Cloud Storage. The median answer on this site is 1.3s.
