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 STAT (JavaScript rendering).
curl -G 'https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape' \
-H "ApiKey: $UJEEBU_API_KEY" \
--data-urlencode 'url=https://www.statnews.com/category/biotech/' \
--data-urlencode 'recipe=statnews/listing'
import os, requests
r = requests.get(
"https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape",
params={"url": "https://www.statnews.com/category/biotech/", "recipe": "statnews/listing"},
headers={"ApiKey": os.environ["UJEEBU_API_KEY"]},
timeout=120,
)
print(r.json()["result"])
const params = new URLSearchParams({
url: "https://www.statnews.com/category/biotech/",
recipe: "statnews/listing",
});
const res = await fetch(`https://api.ujeebu.com/scrape?${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. Other page types: recipe=statnews/detail, or recipe=statnews and the API picks the page type from the URL. Your own parameters always win over the recipe.

FAQ
What does the STAT recipe return?
JSON with 7 fields from search results (recipe=statnews/listing) and article (recipe=statnews/detail), for example title, url, section. The answer is {"result": {...}} with the fields shown on this page.
How much does it cost to scrape STAT?
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 STAT: JavaScript rendering. Send only the URL and recipe=statnews/listing.
What happens when STAT changes its pages?
We check STAT 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.
