How this service works
Call when an agent needs text of //article via //article from a public page or HTML (SSRF-safe). Exact $0.004 USDC. Prefer unpaid POST /v1/sandbox/xpath-article first.
Output
Returns the extracted main article text from the provided URL or HTML, with navigational elements, ads, and boilerplate removed, leaving only the core readable article body.
Example use cases
Summarize news article from URL
“Pull the article text from https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-12345678 — I want just the body of the article so I can summarize it.”
Extract blog post for sentiment analysis
“Get the main article content from this blog post HTML I have — I'll paste the HTML — and return just the readable article text so I can run sentiment analysis on it.”
Research pipeline content ingestion
“Fetch the article body from https://techcrunch.com/2024/05/01/some-story so I can add it to my research notes without all the sidebar clutter.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://agentshelf.syntexa.ch/v1/xpath-article?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Prefer this endpoint when you need the main article body extracted from a public webpage URL or raw HTML and want SSRF-safe server-side fetching. Use the free sandbox POST /v1/sandbox/xpath-article first to avoid the $0.004 USDC cost during testing. Choose this over generic scraping tools when you specifically need article-body isolation (not full page HTML, metadata, or structured data).
Side effects
- URL is unreachable or returns non-200 status — extraction fails with an error
- HTML is malformed or has no detectable article content — returns empty or minimal text
- SSRF-blocked URL (internal/private IP range) — request rejected for security reasons
- Input exceeds maxLength limits (URL > 2048 chars or HTML > 200,000 chars) — validation error
- Page requires JavaScript rendering — static HTML fetch may miss dynamically loaded content
