Getting started: Web Scraper API

Step-by-step guide to purchasing Web Scraper API for collecting real-time web data hassle-free.

1. Create an account

To get started with our Web Scraper API all-in-one scraping solution, simply create an account via the Oxylabs dashboard.

2. Choose a plan

After registering on our dashboard, you'll need to select a Web Scraper API and pick a plan that best fits your needs. You can choose a free trial to test our product, or a cost-saving subscription right away.

3. Get your credentials

Then, you’ll be directed to a screen asking you to create an API user. These credentials will be your key for user authorization later on. Once you confirm a username and password, a test query will appear for you to test your Web Scraper API via Postman or any other setup you prefer.

Once set up, you can start retrieving real-time data with a single API request, while the platform handles proxy management, retries, and improves success rates automatically.
