SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When your application already has a URL and needs that page's content as markdown, HTML, links, screenshots, or metadata, writing the extraction integration from scratch is error-prone. This Skill guides you to implement Firecrawl's /scrape endpoint correctly for single-page extraction in your product code. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Single-Page Extraction: Integrate the Firecrawl /scrape endpoint to return markdown, HTML, links, screenshots, or structured page output from a known URL. - Extraction Defaults: Apply recommended options like markdown output and onlyMainContent to strip navigation noise from article-like pages. - Escalation Guidance: Know when to switch to search-based discovery or interactive multi-step navigation instead of page-level scraping. - Use Case: Build a knowledge ingestion feature that takes company or documentation URLs and feeds clean markdown into an LLM or indexing pipeline. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to integrate Firecrawl /scrape into your app so a given URL returns clean markdown for your ingestion pipeline.

FAQPage Schema
How do I scrape a single web page into markdown with Firecrawl?

Call the Firecrawl /scrape endpoint with the target URL and request markdown as the output format. Enable onlyMainContent for article-like pages to remove navigation and page chrome from the result.

When should I use Firecrawl /scrape instead of crawl or search?

Use /scrape when your application already has the exact URL and only needs that one page's content. If you need to discover URLs first, use search; if the page requires clicks or multi-step navigation, use an interaction-based approach.

What output formats does the Firecrawl scrape endpoint support?

The /scrape endpoint can return markdown, HTML, links, screenshots, metadata, and structured page output. Markdown is the recommended default unless the consuming feature specifically needs another format.

Can I use Firecrawl scrape with a self-hosted deployment?

Yes, set the FIRECRAWL_API_URL environment variable to point at your self-hosted Firecrawl instance. The FIRECRAWL_API_KEY is still required for hosted requests.

Which languages are supported for Firecrawl scrape integration?

Official integration documentation covers Node/TypeScript, Python, Rust, Java, Elixir, and plain cURL/REST. Read the language-specific source-of-truth docs before writing integration code.
