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

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