Run an additional LLM-based pass over the generated markdown to remove residual boilerplate that `onlyMainContent` can miss (cookie banners, ad blocks, social share widgets, breadcrumbs, newsletter signups, comment sections, related-article lists). Headings, lists, tables, code blocks, image references, and inline links are preserved. Can be combined with `onlyMainContent` (the most common setup) or used on its own. Skipped with a warning when the markdown exceeds the cleaning model's output token limit (the original markdown is preserved). Not supported on zero-data-retention requests. default: false includeTags: type: array items: type: string description: Tags to include in the output. excludeTags: type: array items: type: string description: Tags to exclude from the output. maxAge: type: integer description: >- Returns a cached version of the page if it is younger than this age in milliseconds. If a cached version of the page is older than this value, the page will be scraped. If you do not need extremely fresh data, enabling this can speed up your scrapes by 500%. Defaults to 2 days. default: 172800000 minAge: type: integer description: >- When set, the request only checks the cache and never triggers a fresh scrape. The value is in milliseconds and specifies the minimum age the cached data must be. If matching cached data exists, it is returned instantly. If no cached data is found, a 404 with error code SCRAPE_NO_CACHED_DATA is returned. Set to 1 to accept any cached data regardless of age. headers: type: object description: >- Headers to send with the request. Can be used to send cookies, user-agent, etc. waitFor: type: integer description: >- Specify a delay in milliseconds before fetching the content, allowing the page sufficient time to load. This waiting time is in addition to Firecrawl's smart wait feature. default: 0 mobile: type: boolean description: >- Set to true if you want to emulate scraping from a mobile device. Useful for testing responsive pages and taking mobile screenshots. default: false skipTlsVerification: type: boolean description: Skip TLS certificate verification when making requests. default: true timeout: type: integer description: >- Timeout in milliseconds for the request.

When "pdf" is included (default), the PDF content is extracted and converted to markdown format, with billing based on the number of pages (1 credit per page). When an empty array is passed, the PDF file is returned in base64 encoding with a flat rate of 1 credit for the entire PDF. items: oneOf: - type: object properties: type: type: string enum: - pdf mode: type: string enum: - fast - auto - ocr default: auto description: >- PDF parsing mode. "fast": text-based extraction only (embedded text, fastest). "auto" (default): attempts fast extraction first, falls back to OCR if needed. "ocr": forces OCR parsing on every page. maxPages: type: integer minimum: 1 maximum: 10000 description: >- Maximum number of pages to parse from the PDF.

Fast and usually works. - **enhanced**: Enhanced proxies for scraping sites with advanced anti-bot solutions. Slower, but more reliable on certain sites. Costs up to 5 credits per request. - **auto**: Firecrawl will automatically retry scraping with enhanced proxies if the basic proxy fails. If the retry with enhanced is successful, 5 credits will be billed for the scrape. If the first attempt with basic is successful, only the regular cost will be billed. default: auto storeInCache: type: boolean description: >- If true, the page will be stored in the Firecrawl index and cache. Setting this to false is useful if your scraping activity may have data protection concerns. Using some parameters associated with sensitive scraping (e.g. actions, headers) will force this parameter to be false. default: true lockdown: type: boolean description: >- If true, serves the request from Firecrawl's cache only and never makes an outbound request to the target URL. Designed for compliance-constrained or air-gapped environments where the scrape request itself could leak sensitive information. On cache miss, returns a 404 with error code SCRAPE_LOCKDOWN_CACHE_MISS (the URL is never logged on miss). Lockdown requests are treated as zero data retention. Default maxAge is extended to 2 years so existing cached pages remain eligible. Billed at 5 credits on hit, 1 credit on cache miss. default: false profile: type: object description: >- Enable persistent browser storage across scrape and interact sessions. Pass a profile when scraping to preserve cookies, localStorage, and session data.
