Test Scraper APIs in the API Playground

The process of testing out our Web Scraper API is easy:

  1. First, enter a search query or the target URL (depending on your selected source). You can submit a request without customization. ​

  2. If needed, Web Scraper API playground allows you to test getting more specific public data by letting you customize your request. Depending on the target, you can choose a user agent type, parsing, JavaScript rendering, localization (geographic location and interface language), result limits, filtering, session ID options, and more. You can also use OxyCopilot, the latest feature of Web Scraper API, to prepare your request. ​

  3. When you're done customizing your request, submit it, and you'll see the results on the right. If needed, you can export the request/response code in HTML or JSON and the language of your choice. By adding your credentials to the request code, you can use it for further scraping operations.
