Wait when rendering Javascript

Let's say you want to scrape a website that renders its data slowly then in that case, you can use our wait parameter along with the dynamic parameter. wait parameter is actually a time for which you want to wait for a headless browser to keep loading the website. It is in milliseconds and its minimum value is 0 and the maximum value is 35000.

API Example

cURL

curl "https://api.scrapingdog.com/scrape?api_key=5e5a97e5b1ca5b194f42da86&url=http://httpbin.org/ip&wait=5000"

Python

import requests

url = "https://api.scrapingdog.com/scrape"

params = {
    "api_key": "5e5a97e5b1ca5b194f42da86",
    "url": "http://httpbin.org/ip",
    "wait": "5000"
}

response = requests.get(url, params=params)

print(response.text)

Nodejs

const axios = require('axios');

const apiUrl = 'https://api.scrapingdog.com/scrape';
const apiKey = '5e5a97e5b1ca5b194f42da86';
const targetUrl = 'http://httpbin.org/ip';

const params = {
  api_key: apiKey,
  url: targetUrl,
  wait: "5000"
  dynamic: dynamic.toString(),
};

axios
  .get(apiUrl, { params })
  .then((response) => {
    if (response.status === 200) {
      console.log(response.data);
    } else {
      console.error(`Failed to retrieve data. Status code: ${response.status}`);
    }
  })
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error('An error occurred:', error.message);
  });

PHP

<?php
