Create, enable, disable, or delete a Bright Data zone. Zones are isolated proxy/scraping configurations with their own plan, credentials, and settings. Use this tool to manage the lifecycle of zones in your account.
Scrape data from websites using Bright Data's pre-built scrapers and receive results in real-time. Best for small requests (up to 20 URLs). If the request takes longer than 1 minute, a snapshot ID is returned instead for async retrieval.
Retrieve a page of snapshots (scraping jobs) for a specific dataset/scraper. Filter by status or creation date and page through the history with skip and limit.
Get detailed information about a specific Bright Data zone, including its configuration, plan, status, and passwords. Combines zone info, status, and credential data into a single response.
Retrieve your Bright Data account status and balance information, including customer ID, account status, whether requests can be made, current balance, and pending balance.
Cancel a running scraping job before it finishes. Stops the data collection process for the given snapshot. Returns the cancellation status.
Download the results of a completed scraping job by its snapshot ID as a file in the requested format, with structured records also returned for compatibility.
Execute a search query on major search engines (Google, Bing, Yandex, DuckDuckGo) and retrieve search engine results page (SERP) data. Supports localization, pagination, device emulation, and parsed JSON output. Handles all anti-bot measures and proxy rotation automatically.
Start an asynchronous data collection job using Bright Data's pre-built scrapers. Provide target URLs or keywords and receive a snapshot ID to track progress and download results later. Supports delivery via webhook or API download.
Fetch the content of any web page, bypassing anti-bot protections, CAPTCHAs, and access restrictions. Uses Bright Data's Web Unlocker to automatically handle proxy rotation, JavaScript rendering, and cookie management. Returns the page content as HTML, Markdown, or raw response.
List all active zones in your Bright Data account. Zones are collections of proxy or scraping configurations. Each zone has a name and type (e.g., "serp", "dc", "residential").
Check the progress and status of an asynchronous scraping job. Returns the current status (starting, running, ready, failed) along with the associated dataset ID. Use after triggering a scraping job to know when results are available for download.
Discover available scrapers with dataset IDs, names, domains, collection methods, input schemas, and output fields. Use the returned dataset ID with trigger_scraping_job or scrape_synchronous.
Inspect a scraping job snapshot with its status, scraper and dataset names, input and record counts, duration, and collection diagnostics. Use download_snapshot to retrieve the collected records.
