About This Tool
Link extraction is now part of the unified scrape response. Set `extract.links: true` and the API returns a structured `links` object with totals and per-link details.
This is useful for internal-link analysis, crawl discovery, and SEO review workflows.
Why Use This Tool
- SEO audits — Review internal linking structure
- Crawl seeding — Discover URLs linked from a page
- Competitive research — Inspect outbound links and references
- Link QA — Feed extracted links into validation or broken-link checks
Frequently Asked Questions
Are duplicate links removed?
Yes — results are normalized and summarized in the response.
Can this work with JS-rendered pages?
Yes. Combine it with `render_js: true` if the site builds links client-side.
Is this separate from broken-link checking?
Yes. This capability extracts the links. For validation, use the dedicated broken-links endpoint.
