Summary

Extract content from one or more specified URLs using You.com APIs.

Inputs

  • URLs (required) — One or more URLs to extract content from. You can add multiple URLs using the + button or provide a comma-separated list.
  • Contents Options — Optional settings for content extraction including crawl timeout (maximum wait time in seconds for page content, 1-60, default 10), output formats (Markdown, HTML, or deprecated Metadata), and maximum allowed age of cached content in seconds (0 means no age limit).

Output shape

a JSON object containing the extracted content for each URL as returned by the You.com API

The operation accepts multiple URLs and returns their content in the requested formats. The 'max_age' option can enforce freshness by limiting returned cached content to specified age in seconds. Crawl timeout controls maximum wait for content retrieval per URL.

Examples

Example 1: Extract Markdown content from multiple URLs with a 10-second crawl timeout.

Set URLs to desired web pages; adjust 'Crawl Timeout' to 10 seconds; select 'Markdown' in formats; set 'Max Age' to 0 or leave unset to ignore cache age.
