Track a Website

Start monitoring a website URL for content changes. 
curl -X POST https://scrape.st/track/web \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"sid": "https://example.com"}'

  "data": {
    "id": "src_abc",
    "source": "WEB",
    "externalId": "https://example.com"
  },
  "message": "Now tracking https://example.com on web"
}

​
Web Scraping

Scrape any public URL and get the raw HTML content back. This is a one-off request — no tracking required.
This endpoint is rate-limited to 10 requests per 60 seconds per API key.
curl -X POST https://scrape.st/scrape \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"url": "https://example.com"}'
Response: 
{
  "raw": "<html><head><title>Example Domain</title>...</html>"
}

​
List Tracked Websites

Retrieve all websites you are currently tracking. 
curl -X GET https://scrape.st/track/web \

​

curl -X DELETE https://scrape.st/track/web \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"sid": "https://example.com"}'
