Endpoints are split by platform and by what they return, e.g. `GET /v1/twitter/tweet`. ## Authentication Send your API key in the `x-api-key` header (or `Authorization: Bearer `). Create keys in your dashboard. ## Credits Each successful live scrape costs **1 credit**. Credits are prepaid and never expire. ## Caching Every endpoint accepts an optional `cache_max_age` (`1d`|`3d`|`7d`|`14d`|`30d`). A cache hit within that window is returned for **0 credits**. ## Responses Success returns `{ "data": …, "meta": { "requestId", … } }`. Errors return `{ "error": { "code", "message", "requestId" } }` with a matching HTTP status. `meta` on a scrape carries `creditsCharged`, `creditsRemaining`, `cached`, and (on a hit) `cachedAt`. ## Rate limits Requests are limited per team per minute; over the limit returns `429` with a `Retry-After` header. servers: - url: https://api.scraperize.com description: Production security: - ApiKeyAuth: [] tags: - name: Twitter description: Twitter / X scraping endpoints - name: Facebook description: Facebook scraping endpoints - name: Linkme description: Linkme (link.me) scraping endpoints - name: Amazon description: Amazon (creator shop / storefront) scraping endpoints - name: Linkbio description: Linkbio (lnk.bio) scraping endpoints - name: Pillar description: Pillar (pillar.io) scraping endpoints - name: Komi description: Komi (komi.io) scraping endpoints - name: Linktree description: Linktree (linktr.ee) scraping endpoints - name: Kick description: Kick (kick.com) scraping endpoints - name: Snapchat description: Snapchat (snapchat.com) scraping endpoints - name: Telegram description: Telegram (t.me) scraping endpoints - name: Google description: Google Search scraping endpoints paths: /v1/facebook/profile: get: tags: - Facebook summary: Get public Facebook profile information description: >- Fetches a public Facebook page/profile's information (from its `/about` tab, logged-out): identity (name, id, url, username, verified, profile & cover photos), categories, follower/following counts, contact (phone, email, website, address), rating, and (optionally) the business hours status. parameters: - name: url in: query required: true description: Public Facebook page URL, e.g. https://www.facebook.com/metmuseum schema: type: string example: https://www.facebook.com/metmuseum - name: businessHours in: query required: false description: >- Include the business's hours status (e.g. "Open now"/"Closed now").
