Access the API

Scraping Target via the Target API is as easy as sending a GET request to the right endpoint.

You can access the Target API via the official API endpoint:

• https://ecom.webscrapingapi.com/v1

The API key

Authorizing requests sent to the official API endpoint is done via passing the required api_key parameter to the request. You can request your API key upon registration, by subscribing to the Target API service, available in the Dashboard.

In the following documentation, we will refer to the API key by using this syntax:<YOUR_API_KEY>

Do not store your API key in publicly available scripts (i.e. public GitHub repositories). Your API key is strictly linked to your account and using it directly impacts your subscription plan!
