API / JSON scraper
1 day trial then $5.00/month - No credit card required now
Scrape any API / JSON URLs directly to the dataset, and return them in CSV, XML, HTML, or Excel formats. Transform and filter the output. Enables you to follow pagination recursively from the payload without the need to visit the HTML page.
You can access the API / JSON scraper programmatically from your own JavaScript 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.
1import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

3// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
4// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
5const client = new ApifyClient({
6 token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
7});

9// Prepare Actor input
10const input = {
11 "startUrls": [
12 {
13 "url": "https://blockchain.info/latestblock"
14 }
15 ],
16 "filterMap": async ({ request, response, addRequest, flattenObjectKeys, context, Apify, _, moment, data, input, customData }) => {
17 return { url: request.url, data };
18 },
19 "handleError": async ({ error, request, response, addRequest, _, moment, Apify, input, context }) => {

21 },
22 "customData": {},
23 "proxyConfig": {
24 "useApifyProxy": true
25 },
26 "maxRequestRetries": 4
27};
28
29// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
30const run = await client.actor("pocesar/json-downloader").call(input);
31
32// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
33console.log('Results from dataset');
34console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
35const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
36items.forEach((item) => {
37 console.dir(item);
38});
