One call

Send the page URL and the recipe name to the Scrape API. The recipe brings the extract rules and the settings that work on CoinMarketCap (JavaScript rendering).

curl -G 'https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape' \
  -H "ApiKey: $UJEEBU_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode 'url=https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/cardano/' \
  --data-urlencode 'recipe=coinmarketcap'

import os, requests

r = requests.get(
    "https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape",
    params={"url": "https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/cardano/", "recipe": "coinmarketcap"},
    headers={"ApiKey": os.environ["UJEEBU_API_KEY"]},
    timeout=120,
)
print(r.json()["result"])

const params = new URLSearchParams({
  url: "https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/cardano/",
  recipe: "coinmarketcap",
});
const res = await fetch(`https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape?${params}`, {
  headers: { ApiKey: process.env.UJEEBU_API_KEY },
});
console.log((await res.json()).result);

The answer is {"result": {...}} with the headers Ujb-Recipe and Ujb-Credits. Your own parameters always win over the recipe.

FAQ

What does the CoinMarketCap recipe return?

JSON with 4 fields from page (recipe=coinmarketcap), for example title, description, image, url. The answer is {"result": {...}} with the fields shown on this page.

How much does it cost to scrape CoinMarketCap?

5 credits a page ($0.50 per 1,000 on Pro, $0.82 on Starter). Same price as the page call, no fee for the recipe. Only successful responses are billed; blocked, timed-out and failed requests are free.

Do I need proxies or a headless browser?

No. The recipe brings the settings that work on CoinMarketCap: JavaScript rendering. Send only the URL and recipe=coinmarketcap.

What happens when CoinMarketCap changes its pages?

We check CoinMarketCap every day and re-validate the recipe on real pages every week, then fix it when the site changes. Until a fix is live, the API answers 404 "the recipe has no working version" instead of empty data, and that call is free.

Can I change the fields?

Yes. Send your own extract_rules or any setting (js, proxy_type, wait_for) and it wins over the recipe. The developer guide shows the recipe rules to start from.
