URL

Learn how to scrape any Costco page by submitting its URL using the costco source with Web Scraper API.

You can get Costco results by providing your own URLs to our costco source.

Request samples

In the samples below, we make a request to retrieve an example Costco URL.

curl 'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries' \
--user 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
        "source": "costco",
        "url": "https://www.costco.com/televisions.html#productList",
    }'

import requests
from pprint import pprint

# Structure payload.
payload = {
    "source": "costco",
    "url": "https://www.costco.com/televisions.html#productList",
}

# Get response.
response = requests.request(
    "POST",
    "https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries",
    auth=("USERNAME", "PASSWORD"),
    json=payload,
)

# Print prettified response to stdout.
pprint(response.json())

const username = "USERNAME";
const password = "PASSWORD";
const body = {
    source: "costco",

    },
};

const request = https.request(options, (response) => {
