HTTP Status Checker
Pricing
Pay per event
This actor checks the HTTP status code for each URL using a HEAD request. It reports whether the URL is OK (2xx), redirects (3xx), returns a client error (4xx), or server error (5xx). It also measures response time, captures redirect targets, content type, and server headers.
You can access the HTTP Status Checker programmatically from your own applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
