Everything developers ask before integrating the Image Extractor API.
The Image Extractor API is a developer tool that scans any URL and returns every image found on that page. It’s built for developers who need to pull image data programmatically instead of scraping HTML manually.
Send a GET or POST request with a target URL. The API crawls that page and returns a structured list of image URLs. Each result includes available metadata like dimensions, format, and alt text.
The API detects standard web image formats, including JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and SVG. Any image format a browser can render on the page gets captured in the response.
Yes. The API renders pages the way a real browser does. This means images loaded dynamically through JavaScript are captured, not just images in the raw HTML.
Requests are authenticated with an API key passed in the request header. You can generate and manage your API key from your developer dashboard.
The API returns a JSON object containing an array of image URLs. Each entry includes metadata where available, such as width, height, file size, and format.
Most developers start with a free tier or trial allowance to test the API before committing to a paid plan. Check the pricing page for exact limits.
Rate limits depend on your plan tier. Higher-volume plans include higher request limits and priority processing. Exact numbers are listed in the pricing section.
Extracting publicly available image URLs is generally permitted. Usage rights over the images themselves depend on each site’s terms of service and copyright. Always confirm you have the right to use extracted images before publishing them elsewhere.
The API is a standard REST endpoint. It works with any language that can make HTTP requests, including JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby, and Go.
Yes. Query parameters let you filter results by minimum dimensions, file format, or file size. You only receive the images relevant to your use case.
Sign up for an account and generate an API key from your dashboard. Send your first request to the endpoint with a target URL. Full setup steps are in the API documentation.
