Keywords

Extract the keywords and key phrases that best describe a page. URLpipe returns 5–15 terms as a JSON array, ordered by relevance — handy for tagging, categorisation, related-content and search.

This is an AI operation, metered against your AI allowance.

Body parameters

Name
url
Type
string
Required
Required
Description
The absolute URL of the page to process. Rendered with headless Chrome, so JavaScript runs and redirects are followed. It must not include a username or password (https://user:pass@example.com).
Name
report_to
Type
string
Description
Webhook URL — an http or https address URLpipe POSTs the result to when it's ready. Optional: without it we deliver to your project's default endpoint if it has one, and otherwise send no webhook at all — the result still waits for you at GET /result/:token. A value we cannot deliver to returns 422. Ignored on a sync=true request. Deliveries can be signed so your endpoint can verify they came from us.
Name
sync
Type
boolean
Description
Process the request synchronously, returning the result inline in the response. Defaults to false (async: return a token now, and either receive the result at a webhook or fetch it with GET /result/:token). See Async & sync modes for the full contract.
Name
max_age
Type
string | integer
Description
How fresh a cached result must be to be accepted. Either an integer number of seconds (3600) or a duration string of the form "<number> <unit>" — units s/min/h/d/w (e.g. "2 hours", "3 days", "30m"). Defaults to 7 days, clamped to a max of 30 days; 0 always bypasses the cache. See Caching for all accepted units.

Response

Content type application/json — an array of strings, most relevant first.

Responses

Whatever the status, the response carries metadata headers: the result token, whether it was served from cache and how old that result is, how long we took, and the quota you have left.

Status

When

Body

200 OK

The request succeeded.

Sync: the result, in this endpoint's format (see Response above). Async: a job token — { "token": "…", "status": "accepted" }.

422 Unprocessable Entity

The analysis failed, or a parameter was invalid (a bad max_age, or a report_to we will not deliver to).

{ "error": "<message>" }

429 Too Many Requests

You've hit your monthly quota for this operation's category (checked only on a cache miss).

{ "error": "quota_exceeded", "category", "limit", "used", "resets_at" }

504 Gateway Timeout

Sync only: the analysis didn't finish within 60s. It keeps running — fetch it via GET /result/:token.

{ "error": "processing_timeout", "token": "…" }

401 Unauthorized

Missing or invalid API key.
