Data Extraction APIs

Welcome to the DumplingAI API reference. Our focus is helping you pull structured data out of the real world: websites, PDFs, screenshots, videos, audio, and social feeds, fast. What you can extract
  • Web & app pages: crawl full sites or targeted URLs, run JS, and return cleaned HTML/markdown (/crawl, /scrape).
  • Documents & PDFs: convert, merge, or read metadata; turn files into text or embeddings (/doc-to-text, /convert-to-pdf, /merge-pdfs, /read-pdf-metadata).
  • Media to text: transcribe and summarize YouTube/TikTok/audio/video; capture frames and OCR images (/get-youtube-transcript, /get-tiktok-transcript, /extract-audio, /extract-video, /extract-image).
  • Social & places data: pull profiles, posts, reviews, search results, or screenshots from major networks (/search-youtube, /get-linkedin-profile, /search-places, /screenshot).
