The HTML Code Extraction API provides developers with a simple yet powerful way to retrieve and process the raw HTML of any webpage. Instead of manually setting up scrapers, handling user agents, or worrying about blocking, this API delivers clean and consistent HTML data that can be integrated directly into your applications.
With this API, you can:
Fetch complete HTML source code from any publicly accessible URL.
Power data pipelines, crawlers, and content analyzers without extra setup.
Use the extracted HTML as the foundation for building web scrapers, search engines, SEO tools, or AI-driven analysis.
Automate workflows like metadata extraction, DOM parsing, and structured content generation.
Whether you’re working on data mining, monitoring websites, or enhancing SEO tools, the HTML Extraction API saves time by handling all the heavy lifting of HTTP requests, headers, and site fetching. It’s fast, reliable, and designed to scale with your needs.

The HTML Extraction API retrieves the raw HTML source code of any publicly accessible webpage with a single API call.
You just need to provide a valid URL. The API will fetch and return the page’s HTML.
The API returns a JSON response containing the full HTML content as a string. Plus additional data such as link_count, image_count, heading_tag_count, p_count, character_encoding, page_language, total_size_kb, character_count, word_count, line_count, title, description, keywords, final_url, status_code, and headers.
The API returns structured HTML which is parsed through the BeautifulSoup library.
Absolutely. It can be used to analyze metadata, headings, tags, and on-page SEO elements directly from the HTML.
The current version extracts one page per request, but you can batch requests in your application to handle multiple URLs.
The API is optimized for speed, typically responding in milliseconds depending on the site’s complexity and load time.
Web scraping and data collection SEO auditing and metadata analysis Content monitoring and archiving Research and machine learning datasets Building search or crawler tools
Yes, the API follows redirects (301/302) and returns the HTML of the final destination page.
The API only fetches publicly available data. Users are responsible for complying with the target website’s terms of service and robots.txt.
The Extract HTML endpoint returns a JSON object containing the complete HTML code of the requested webpage, along with metadata such as link count, image count, heading tags, character encoding, and more.
Key fields include `link_count`, `image_count`, `heading_tag_count`, `title`, `description`, `final_url`, `status_code`, and `html_code`. These provide insights into the page structure and content.
The response is structured as a JSON object with nested fields. Main attributes include HTML content and metadata, allowing easy access to specific data points like `title` and `link_count`.
The endpoint provides information about the webpage's structure, including counts of links, images, headings, and paragraphs, as well as the HTML content itself and HTTP response details.
Users can customize requests by specifying different URLs to extract HTML from various pages. The API automatically handles the fetching and parsing of the provided URL.
For example, `link_count` indicates the number of hyperlinks on the page, while `heading_tag_count` provides a breakdown of different heading levels (h1, h2, etc.), helping users understand the page's content hierarchy.
The API fetches live data directly from the specified URLs, ensuring that the HTML and metadata reflect the current state of the webpage, subject to the site's availability.
Typical use cases include web scraping for data analysis, SEO audits to evaluate on-page elements, content monitoring for changes, and building tools for search engines or crawlers.
Typical use cases include web scraping for data analysis, SEO audits for optimizing content, and building crawlers or search engines that require structured HTML data for processing.
