Introducing /map (Alpha)

The easiest way to go from a single url to a map of the entire website. This is extremely useful for:

  • When you need to prompt the end-user to choose which links to scrape
  • Need to quickly know the links on a website
  • Need to scrape pages of a website that are related to a specific topic (use the search parameter)
  • Only need to scrape specific pages of a website

Alpha Considerations

This endpoint prioritizes speed, so it may not capture all website links. We are working on improvements. Feedback and suggestions are very welcome.

Installation

Usage

Response

SDKs will return the data object directly. cURL will return the payload exactly as shown below.

{
  "status": "success",
  "links": [
    "https://firecrawl.dev",
    "https://www.firecrawl.dev/pricing",
    "https://www.firecrawl.dev/blog",
    "https://www.firecrawl.dev/playground",
    "https://www.firecrawl.dev/smart-crawl",
    ...
  ]
}

Map with search param allows you to search for specific urls inside a website.

cURL
curl -X POST https://api.firecrawl.dev/v1/map \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -H 'Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY' \
    -d '{
      "url": "https://firecrawl.dev",
      "search": "docs"
    }'

Response will be an ordered list from the most relevant to the least relevant.

{
  "status": "success",
  "links": [
    "https://docs.firecrawl.dev",
    "https://docs.firecrawl.dev/sdks/python",
    "https://docs.firecrawl.dev/learn/rag-llama3",
  ]
}
