Frequently Asked Questions
Can I get the parsed content in JSON format instead of the full HTML source code of the page?
Yes, you can get the parsed content in JSON format instead of the full HTML source code of the page. Crawlbase's Crawling API includes an optional generic data scraper that extracts data directly from Scribd, eliminating the need to build HTML parsers. This feature ensures you receive structured data in JSON format, simplifying the integration process for your projects. If any data is missing, you can contact their support team for assistance.
Do you support headless browsers?
Yes. Upon registration, you will get two different tokens, the normal and JavaScript tokens. You can use the JavaScript token when the content you need to crawl is rendered in JavaScript (React, Angular, etc.) or dynamically generated on the browser.
How fast is your API? Is there a rate limit?
Our API is designed to scale and handle big projects with ease. The data bandwidth is unlimited, with a default rate limit of 20 requests per second. If you need a higher rate limit, please contact our support team to raise your concern.
Can we crawl website content while logged in?
By default, our API can only crawl public data. However, we offer an option to send cookies if you require a login session to scrape a website’s content. If you need more information, please see our product documentation or contact the support team.
