1\. Scraping Configuration

You can configure what you want to scrape using the parameter options on the right side of the page. These include: URL, request method, output format, JS rendering, block resource loading, and proxy.

2\. Integrate the Example into Your Codebase

Once all parameters are configured, you can integrate the generated code snippet on the right into your codebase.

Take data crawling from `https://www.google.com/` as an example. Please don’t forget to replace “token” with your API Token.

```sh
curl --request POST --url 
https://universalapi.thordata.com/request --header 
"Authorization: Bearer Token"   --header 
"content-type: application/json" --data "
{"url":"https://www.google.com", 
"type":"html","js_render":"True"}"
```
