API features
Webpage fields from an instruction
Provide a webpage URL and extraction instruction, then receive structured JSON fields for the requested data.
AI agent extraction workflow
Use the response in agents, automations, and RAG pipelines that need clean structured data from public webpages.
Flexible structured results
Describe the fields you need, then validate the extracted JSON for your application. Explicit empty lists represent no matches.
Reduces custom parser work
Avoid writing one-off scrapers for every page layout when your product only needs a specific structured result.
Automation-ready response fields
Return JSON that backend jobs, no-code tools, enrichment workflows, and internal dashboards can consume directly.
Standalone structured extraction API
Subscribe to this interface when the output should be JSON; use fetchcontent when the workflow mainly needs article text.

API Response Parameters
| Name | Type | Remark |
|---|---|---|
| dataStatus | object | Response metadata returned by the current v1 contract. |
| dataStatus.requestParameter | string | Privacy-safe summary of the normalized request. |
| dataStatus.statusCode | integer | Application-level status code. |
| dataStatus.status | string | Application-level result status. |
| dataStatus.statusDescription | string | Human-readable application status message. |
| dataStatus.responseDateTime | string | Time at which the response was generated. |
| dataStatus.dataTotalCount | integer | Number of matching or returned records for this request. |
| data | object | Dynamic JSON object. Article arrays are wrapped in articles; other arrays in items. Explicit empty lists are valid no-match results. Empty content returns HTTP 422, invalid extraction responses HTTP 502, and unavailable service HTTP 503; these failures use business code 500. |
API Response Status Codes
| Status Code | Explanation of Status Code | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| 200 | Request processed successfully. | Some endpoints expose a separate application-level status field in the response body, such as `dataStatus.statusCode`. |
| 400 | Invalid request parameters or request format. | Check required fields, data types, and request body format. |
| 401 | Missing or unknown application key. | Provide a valid `appkey` with the request. |
| 403 | The application key is recognized but access is not allowed. | The key may be expired, inactive, or not permitted for the requested API. |
| 429 | Request rate or trial usage limit exceeded. | Reduce request frequency and retry with backoff. If a trial allowance is exhausted, check Trial Keys for remaining requests and subscribe to continue. |
| 500 | Internal service error. | Retry later or contact support if the error persists. |
| 503 | Upstream service unavailable. | Retry later; the requested upstream dependency is temporarily unavailable. |

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about request limits, trials, renewal, and cancellation.
What does the 5 requests per second limit mean?
It is a request-rate limit, not a concurrency allowance. Keep your request rate at or below 5 per second. If the service returns a rate-limit response, reduce the frequency and retry with backoff.
Is total paid usage limited?
There is no total request cap during an active paid subscription and no usage-based overage charge.
How does the free trial work?
Each account can receive a limited trial key. Requests are shared across APIs in the same category. Check Trial Keys for the exact allowance and remaining requests.
How do renewal and cancellation work?
The plan renews annually until canceled. Manage or cancel the renewal from Dashboard → Orders & Billing. Access continues through the paid period after cancellation. See the Terms of Service for the current refund policy. If the billing portal is unavailable, contact support.
