Includes SDK V2 guidance, input constraints, response fields, and Deepline credit cost. Crawl Website & Scrape Markdown. Tool ID: `contextdev_post_web_crawl` ## Run this action Use the TypeScript SDK for a single call. Put `ctx.tools.execute(...)` inside a Play when the call should be durable, scheduled, or run across a CSV. ```ts theme={null} import { Deepline } from 'deepline'; const deepline = await Deepline.connect(); const result = await deepline.tools.execute( 'contextdev_post_web_crawl', { "url": "https://example.com/resource" }, ); console.log(result.toolResponse.raw); ``` ### CLI ```bash theme={null} deepline tools execute contextdev_post_web_crawl --input '{ "url": "https://example.com/resource" }' --json ``` ## Example response The SDK exposes this shape at `result.toolResponse.raw`. Values below are representative. ```json theme={null} { "data": { "results": [ { "markdown": "example", "metadata": { "sourceUrl": "https://example.com", "finalUrl": "https://example.com", "title": "VP of Engineering", "url": "https://example.com", "crawlDepth": 123, "statusCode": 123, "success": true } } ], "metadata": { "numUrls": 123, "maxCrawlDepth": 123, "numSucceeded": 123, "numFailed": 123, "numSkipped": 123 } } } ``` Use `deepline tools get contextdev_post_web_crawl --json` for the latest machine-readable contract. ## Input reference Performs a crawl starting from a given URL, extracts page content as Markdown, and returns results for all crawled pages. | Name | Type | Required | Default | Details | | ----------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `payload.url` | `string` | Yes | — | The starting URL for the crawl (must include http\:// or https\:// protocol) Format: `uri`. | | `payload.maxPages` | `integer` | No | `100` | Maximum number of pages to crawl. Hard cap: 500. Minimum: 1. Maximum: 500. | | `payload.maxDepth` | `integer` | No | — | Maximum link depth from the starting URL (0 = only the starting page) Minimum: 0. | | `payload.urlRegex` | `string` | No | — | Regex pattern. Only URLs matching this pattern will be followed and scraped. | | `payload.includeLinks` | `boolean` | No | `true` | Preserve hyperlinks in the Markdown output | | `payload.includeImages` | `boolean` | No | `false` | Include image references in the Markdown output | | `payload.shortenBase64Images` | `boolean` | No | `true` | Truncate base64-encoded image data in the Markdown output | | `payload.useMainContentOnly` | `boolean` | No | `false` | Extract only the main content, stripping headers, footers, sidebars, and navigation | | `payload.followSubdomains` | `boolean` | No | `false` | When true, follow links on subdomains of the starting URL's domain (e.g. docs.example.com when starting from example.com). www and apex are always treated as equivalent. | | `payload.pdf` | `object` | No | `{"shouldParse":true,"ocr":false}` | PDF parsing controls. Use start/end to limit text extraction and embedded-image detection/OCR to an inclusive 1-based page range. | | `payload.includeFrames` | `boolean` | No | `false` | When true, the contents of iframes are rendered to Markdown for each crawled page. | | `payload.includeSelectors` | `array` | No | — | CSS selectors. When provided, only matching HTML subtrees (and their descendants) are kept before each crawled page is converted to Markdown. When omitted, the entire document is kept. Examples: "article.main", "#content", "\[role=main]". Maximum items: 50. | | `payload.excludeSelectors` | `array` | No | — | CSS selectors to remove before each crawled page is converted to Markdown. Applied after includeSelectors. Exclusion takes precedence: an element matching both is removed. Examples: "nav", "footer", ".ad-banner", "\[aria-hidden=true]". Maximum items: 50. | | `payload.maxAgeMs` | `integer` | No | `86400000` | Return a cached result if a prior scrape for the same parameters exists and is younger than this many milliseconds. Defaults to 1 day (86400000 ms) when omitted. Max is 30 days (2592000000 ms). Set to 0 to always scrape fresh. Minimum: 0. Maximum: 2592000000. | | `payload.waitForMs` | `integer` | No | — | Optional browser wait time in milliseconds after initial page load for each crawled page. Min: 0. Max: 30000 (30 seconds). Minimum: 0. Maximum: 30000. | | `payload.settleAnimations` | `boolean` | No | `false` | When true, waits briefly for CSS and transition animations to settle before extracting each crawled page. Defaults to false. This adds a bit of latency in exchange for more stable output on animated pages. | | `payload.stopAfterMs` | `integer` | No | `80000` | Soft time budget for the crawl in milliseconds. After each scrape, the crawler checks the elapsed time and, if exceeded, returns the pages collected so far instead of continuing. Min: 10000 (10s). Max: 110000 (110s). Default: 80000 (80s). Minimum: 10000. Maximum: 110000. | | `payload.country` | `"ad" \| "ae" \| "af" \| "ag" \| "ai" \| "al" \| "am" \| "ao" \| "ar" \| "at" \| "au" \| "aw" \| "az" \| "ba" \| "bb" \| "bd" \| "be" \| "bf" \| "bg" \| "bh" \| "bi" \| "bj" \| "bm" \| "bn" \| "bo" \| "bq" \| "br" \| "bs" \| "bw" \| "by" \| "bz" \| "ca" \| "cd" \| "cf" \| "cg" \| "ch" \| "ci" \| "cl" \| "cm" \| "cn" \| "co" \| "cr" \| "cv" \| "cw" \| "cy" \| "cz" \| "de" \| "dj" \| "dk" \| "dm" \| "do" \| "dz" \| "ec" \| "ee" \| "eg" \| "es" \| "et" \| "fi" \| "fj" \| "fr" \| "ga" \| "gb" \| "gd" \| "ge" \| "gf" \| "gg" \| "gh" \| "gm" \| "gn" \| "gp" \| "gq" \| "gr" \| "gt" \| "gu" \| "gw" \| "gy" \| "hk" \| "hn" \| "hr" \| "ht" \| "hu" \| "id" \| "ie" \| "il" \| "im" \| "in" \| "iq" \| "ir" \| "is" \| "it" \| "je" \| "jm" \| "jo" \| "jp" \| "ke" \| "kg" \| "kh" \| "kn" \| "kr" \| "kw" \| "ky" \| "kz" \| "la" \| "lb" \| "lc" \| "lk" \| "lr" \| "ls" \| "lt" \| "lu" \| "lv" \| "ly" \| "ma" \| "mc" \| "md" \| "me" \| "mf" \| "mg" \| "mk" \| "ml" \| "mm" \| "mn" \| "mo" \| "mq" \| "mr" \| "mt" \| "mu" \| "mv" \| "mw" \| "mx" \| "my" \| "mz" \| "na" \| "nc" \| "ne" \| "ng" \| "ni" \| "nl" \| "no" \| "np" \| "nz" \| "om" \| "pa" \| "pe" \| "pf" \| "pg" \| "ph" \| "pk" \| "pl" \| "pr" \| "ps" \| "pt" \| "py" \| "qa" \| "re" \| "ro" \| "rs" \| "ru" \| "rw" \| "sa" \| "sc" \| "sd" \| "se" \| "sg" \| "si" \| "sk" \| "sl" \| "sm" \| "sn" \| "so" \| "sr" \| "ss" \| "st" \| "sv" \| "sx" \| "sy" \| "sz" \| "tc" \| "td" \| "tg" \| "th" \| "tj" \| "tl" \| "tm" \| "tn" \| "tr" \| "tt" \| "tw" \| "tz" \| "ua" \| "ug" \| "us" \| "uy" \| "uz" \| "vc" \| "ve" \| "vg" \| "vi" \| "vn" \| "ye" \| "yt" \| "za" \| "zm" \| "zw"` | No | — | Fetch the target page through a residential proxy in this country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2).

If the request takes longer than this value, it will be aborted with a 408 status code. Maximum allowed value is 300000ms (5 minutes). Minimum: 1000. Maximum: 300000. | | `payload.zdr` | `"enabled" \| "disabled"` | No | `"disabled"` | Set to enabled to bypass shared caches and omit request and response content from retained usage logs. Requires zero data retention to be enabled for your organization (contact [support@context.dev](mailto:support@context.dev)), otherwise the request fails with ZDR\_NOT\_ENABLED. Successful ZDR responses include X-Context-ZDR: true. Allowed: `enabled`, `disabled`. | | `payload.tags` | `array` | No | — | Optional tags for tracking usage. Up to 20 tags, each 1 to 50 characters. Maximum items: 20. |
