MCP

Give your agent WebScraping.AI tools

Every WebScraping.AI action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's WebScraping.AI account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "webscraping_ai",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// e.g. run Ask Question about Webpage:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "webscraping_ai-ask-question",
  arguments: {
    targetUrl: "Target URL",
    question: "Question",
  },
})

API PROXY

Call the WebScraping.AI API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the WebScraping.AI API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://api.webscraping.ai/account",
})

// Any allowed WebScraping.AI endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

SDK

Run WebScraping.AI actions from your backend

Connect a user's WebScraping.AI account once, then run Ask Question about Webpage on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "webscraping_ai-ask-question",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    webscraping_ai: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
    targetUrl: "Target URL",
    question: "Question",
  },
})

EVENTS

WebScraping.AI triggers

Event sources your backend can deploy for users and receive through a webhook.

No WebScraping.AI triggers are available yet.

MULTI-APP

Use WebScraping.AI with other popular apps

Most products don't stop at one integration. Pair WebScraping.AI with the other apps your users rely on, and ship use cases that span both.
