Unified API

The Unified API is DumplingAI’s /api/v2 surface. It is the recommended default for new focused data integrations. Direct Endpoints under /api/v1 remain supported for legacy request shapes and Make.com compatibility. Use it when you want:
  • capabilities like search_news, extract_document, extract_audio, or scrape_page
  • exact endpoints like firecrawl.scrape or dataforseo.dataforseo_labs_google_keyword_ideas
  • one API key and one control surface for multiple managed providers

​
How it differs from Direct Endpoints

​
Direct Endpoints (/api/v1)

Use /api/v1 when you want the existing endpoint-oriented Dumpling product:
  • direct endpoint access
  • the Direct Endpoint Playground
  • legacy endpoint docs and request shapes
  • current Make.com compatibility

​
Unified API (/api/v2)

Use /api/v2 when you want the capability- and provider-oriented platform model:
  • simple capabilities for common jobs
  • provider-native endpoints when the exact upstream API matters
  • shared logging, policy, and spend controls across those lanes

​
Two main lanes

​
Capabilities

Capabilities are the default lane. Examples:
  • google_search
  • search_news
  • search_places
  • get_google_reviews
  • crawl_site
  • screenshot
  • extract_web
  • extract_document
  • extract_image
  • extract_audio
  • extract_video
  • scrape_page
  • get_youtube_transcript
Use them when you want DumplingAI to standardize the job and keep the request simple.

​
Providers and endpoints

Providers are vendor overview pages, and endpoints are the provider-native operations under them. Examples:
  • firecrawl
  • serper.search
  • serper.news
  • serper.places
  • serper.maps
  • serper.autocomplete
  • serper.images
  • serper.videos
  • serper.shopping
  • serper.scholar
  • serper.patents
  • perplexity.search
  • firecrawl.scrape
  • dataforseo.dataforseo_labs_google_keyword_ideas
Use them when you want exact provider behavior and provider-specific output.
