4 rows in the dataset

Download the dataset

Get every row this scraper has collected as one CSV or JSONL file. If the data is older than maxAgeHours, the scraper is re-run with its configured settings first. The key needs the datasets:export scope.

DOWNLOAD_ID=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/datasets/wikipedia-articles/downloads" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{"maxAgeHours":24,"format":"csv"}' | jq -r '.id')while true; do  STATUS=$(curl -s "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/downloads/$DOWNLOAD_ID" \    -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" | jq -r '.status')  [ "$STATUS" != "refreshing" ] && break  sleep 5donecurl -s "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/downloads/$DOWNLOAD_ID/file" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" \  -o dataset.csv

At its current 4 rows, this download costs 1 credit when the data is fresh enough, or 2 credits when it has to be refreshed first.

The rate is 1 credit per 100 rows cached and 2 credits live, charged on the rows in the dataset when the download becomes ready. A failed refresh is not charged. The file stays downloadable for 24 hours. See pricing.

Start a run

To choose the targets yourself, send the parameters below as input. The call returns 202 with the run; the key needs the scrapers:run scope and the account a positive credit balance.

curl -X POST "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/scrapers/wikipedia-articles/runs" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{    "input": {      "query": "computer science",      "language": "en",      "maxItems": 10,      "maxPages": 5    }  }'

A run is billed at the live rate once it finishes: 2 credits per 100 rows it collected. A run that collects nothing costs nothing.

Input as JSON Schema

The same schema the API validates against. Use it as a tool input schema or to generate a typed client.

Run, poll, read rows

The run is asynchronous. Poll it until it reaches a terminal status and its billing is paid, then page through its rows. Until then the rows endpoint answers 409 (still queued or running) or 402 (payment required).

RUN_ID=$(curl -s -X POST "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/scrapers/wikipedia-articles/runs" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY" \  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \  -d '{    "input": {      "query": "computer science",      "language": "en",      "maxItems": 10,      "maxPages": 5    }  }' | jq -r '.id')while true; do  RUN=$(curl -s "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/runs/$RUN_ID" \    -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY")  STATUS=$(echo "$RUN" | jq -r '.status')  BILLING=$(echo "$RUN" | jq -r '.billing.status')  case "$STATUS" in queued|running) ;; *) [ "$BILLING" != "pending" ] && break ;; esac  sleep 5doneecho "$RUN" | jq '{status, rowCount, billing}'curl -s "https://api.pandorlabs.com/v1/runs/$RUN_ID/rows?page=1&limit=100" \  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANDORLABS_KEY"

See the API reference for pagination, cancelling and listing runs.
