Metadata Extraction

Extract page title, Open Graph tags, favicon, HTTP status, image dimensions, fonts, or full page content alongside the screenshot.

Metadata is returned in the JSON response. You must use response_type=json to receive the metadata fields. Each metadata_* flag is independent. Enable only what you need.

Content extraction

metadata_content=true returns the full rendered page content. Use metadata_content_format=markdown to get it as Markdown instead of HTML, useful for feeding pages into LLMs.
