Quick Start
FoxScrape is meant to be the easiest scraping API available on the web.
To scrape a web page, you only need two things:
- Your API key. You can find it in your dashboard
- The encoded web page URL you want to scrape.
API Keystringrequired
All requests are authenticated using your private API key. To get access to your API key, create an account here.
URLstringrequired
This parameter is the full URL including the protocol (with http/https) of the page to extract data from. You must encode your URL. For example, the + character is encoded to %2B. Consult your programming language documentation for functions that encode URLs
Example
The following snippet is an example of a simple GET API call to scrape the URL defined in the query string variable YOUR-URL
