Target
You can get Target results by providing your own URLs to our service. We can return the HTML for any Target page you like. Additionally, we can deliver structured (parsed) output for Target product and search pages.
Request samples
The example below illustrates how you can get a parsed Target product page result.
curl 'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries' \
--user 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' \
