curl "https://api.crawlbase.com/?token=YOUR_TOKEN&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.hornbach.de%2Fp%2Fexample-page%2F1234567"from crawlbase import CrawlingAPI api = CrawlingAPI({'token': 'YOUR_TOKEN'}) r = api.get('https://www.hornbach.de/p/example-page/1234567') html = r['body']
const { CrawlingAPI } = require('crawlbase'); const api = new CrawlingAPI({ token: 'YOUR_TOKEN' }); const r = await api.get('https://www.hornbach.de/p/example-page/1234567');

|---|---|---|
country | leave unset | Most successful calls set no country (98.7%) and succeed at 92.3%. |
javascript | leave unset | Plain-token calls succeed at 92.3% and make up 99.1% of the traffic. A browser costs more and, on this site, buys nothing. |

Fields you get
A product page usually carries an ld+json Product block with name, price, currency and availability, and the same values in the visible markup. Read the block first; it changes less often than the layout.
