Introduction

The Spidra API gives you programmatic access to web data. All endpoints share a common base URL, authentication scheme, and response format described on this page.

Features

Scrape

Extract content from any webpage with browser automation and AI processing.

Batch Scrape

Queue up to 50 URLs in one request and collect per-item results in parallel.

Crawl

Crawl entire websites and extract structured data from every page.

Base URL

All API requests use this base URL:

https://api.spidra.io/api

Authentication

Include your API key in the standard Authorization: Bearer header.

curl -X POST https://api.spidra.io/api/scrape \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"urls": [{"url": "https://example.com"}]}'

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.spidra.io/api/scrape",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"},
    json={"urls": [{"url": "https://example.com"}]}
)

const response = await fetch("https://api.spidra.io/api/scrape", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ urls: [{ url: "https://example.com" }] })
});

Get your API key from app.spidra.io → Settings → API Keys.

Keep your API key secret. Never expose it in frontend code.

`200`	OK	Request completed successfully
`202`	Accepted	Job queued. Poll the status endpoint for results
`400`	Bad Request	The request conflicts with the current state (e.g. cancelling a finished job)

`402`	Payment Required	Subscription payment overdue
`403`	Forbidden	Credits exhausted or plan limit reached
`404`	Not Found	The job or resource does not exist
`422`	Unprocessable Entity	The request body failed validation — the response includes an `errors` array

All errors return this structure:

{
  "status": "error",
