A few good questions

Frequently asked questions

The essentials, from your first request
to the way you build.

[ 01 ]

The basics

Find your data. Make it useful.

What does ScrapeAtlas do?

ScrapeAtlas brings public social media data into your software. Send a request for a profile, post, video or conversation, and get structured JSON that you can use in your product or workflow.

What kind of data can I explore?

Explore social profiles, posts, comments, videos, transcripts, ad creatives, creator links and marketplace listings. The platform reference shows the requests and fields for each API.

What can I build with it?

Build creator discovery tools, content research workflows, brand dashboards and market intelligence products. Combine profiles, engagement, conversations or transcripts with your own analysis to answer the questions that matter to your users.

[ 02 ]

Building with the API

From your first call to your next idea.

How do I make my first request?

Create your ScrapeAtlas account, generate an API key in the dashboard and choose an endpoint from the docs. Add your key to the x-api-key header and send the request. The API playground lets you try requests and inspect their responses.

Can I use my existing tools and language?

Yes. ScrapeAtlas works over HTTP, so you can call it from Python, JavaScript, cURL or a workflow tool with an HTTP request step. Use the CLI for terminal scripts and the documentation’s request examples as a starting point.

How do I connect an AI agent?

Connect your MCP-compatible client to the ScrapeAtlas MCP server using your API key. Your agent can then discover platform tools and request social data. The agent reference also gives coding assistants a readable guide to the API.

What does the response look like?

Responses contain structured JSON with the data returned by the endpoint. The API reference includes field descriptions and example responses, including pagination details, so you can map the result into your application.

[ 03 ]

Credits & support

Start small. Keep building.

Can I try ScrapeAtlas before buying credits?

Yes. Your account starts with 100 free credits, with no credit card needed. Create a key and try the API with the data you want to build around.

How do credits and top-ups work?

A successful retrieval uses one credit, including partial results and valid empty collections. Each additional page you request is another request. Failed requests cost zero credits, and internal retries cost nothing extra. Buy one-time packs in Billing when you need more. Your balance is shared across your API keys, and credits never expire.

Where can I get help with an integration?

Tell us what you are building and which platform or endpoint you are working with through Contact. You can also reach us from Support in your dashboard. For request formats and examples, start with the API documentation.
