Hi everyone! Actually I’m looking forward to make an API connection between my website and [WebScraper.io](http://WebScraper.io) , but I don’t know how to make it. Maybe if you could giveme a few tips or help how to start I can understand the process of the development:)

Your can find API documentations here :  
-(WebScraper) - [https://webscraper.io/documentation/api](https://webscraper.io/documentation/api)  
(goal is to export data from here, guess in csv?)  
(ShopRenter) - [https://doc.shoprenter.hu/](https://doc.shoprenter.hu/)  
(goal is that some parameters should react to the data WebScaper give).

Many thanks!

Kind regards,  
David

As long as you have scraping jobs already running, it looks like you can use Parabola to pull in the results.

First use an API Import to call this URL:  
[https://api.webscraper.io/api/v1/scraping-jobs?api\_token=YOUR-API-TOKEN](https://api.webscraper.io/api/v1/scraping-jobs?api_token=YOUR-API-TOKEN)  
and replace “YOUR-API-TOKEN” with your api token

You may need to add a top level key in the API Import for the the key “data” to unpack the results into a table.

They will probably send back the most recent scrape job first, so if you have multiple jobs returned, you can use a Row Numbers step followed by a Row Filter to only keep the first row.

Then you can send that into an API Enrichment step set to use this URL:  
[https://api.webscraper.io/api/v1/scraping-job/{id}/json?api\_token=YOUR-API-TOKEN](https://api.webscraper.io/api/v1/scraping-job/%7Bid%7D/json?api_token=YOUR-API-TOKEN)
