List what the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine holds for any page or domain: one clean row per capture, with the date, HTTP status, MIME type, content digest, size and ready-to-open snapshot links. The data comes from the official public CDX API at web.archive.org. Nothing is scraped from live sites.
Two modes:
- Snapshots: the full capture history of each URL, e.g. every archived version of
example.com/pricing. Thin it out to one capture per year, month or day, or keep only captures where the content changed. - URLs: every archived URL under a domain, host or path prefix, e.g. every page
example.comever had. Use it to recover deleted pages, rebuild an old sitemap, find 404s worth redirecting after a migration, or research a competitor's old pricing and landing pages.
Output (one row per capture or URL)
| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| input | apify.com |
| timestamp / capturedAt | 20070531101538 / 2007-05-31T10:15:38Z |
| originalUrl | http://www.apify.com:80/ |
| statusCode | 200 (null for revisit records) |
| mimeType | text/html |
| digest | SHA-1 of the archived content. Identical digest = identical page |
| lengthBytes | compressed size in the archive |
| snapshotUrl | https://web.archive.org/web/20070531101538/http://www.apify.com:80/ |
| rawContentUrl | the original bytes without the Wayback toolbar (id_ URL) |
Inputs with no captures, or invalid input, return a single error row and are not charged.
Filters
- From / To date:
YYYY,YYYYMMorYYYYMMDD. - Only HTTP 200: drop redirects and error captures.
- One capture per year/month/day, or only when content changed (collapses identical digests). Snapshots mode only.
- Max rows per input: a hard cap, so you never pay for more than you asked for.
Pricing
Pay per event: $0.50 per 1,000 rows (one row = one capture or one archived URL), plus Apify platform usage. Error rows are free. Set "Max rows per input" to cap the cost of big domains.
Notes and limits
- The Internet Archive rate-limits its CDX server. The actor runs requests one at a time and backs off on HTTP 429 and 5xx errors, so large domains take a while. Very large domains (millions of URLs) are best narrowed with a prefix or a date range.
- The actor only lists archive records. Open

- Built and maintained with AI assistance. Report problems in the Issues tab and they get fixed.
