Download the complete HTML of any list of web pages — fast, reliable, and at scale. Paste your URLs (bulk supported), press Start, and get the full page source of every URL saved neatly into a dataset you can export as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

The actor uses a smart two-stage download engine: a lightning-fast HTTP fetch first, and an automatic real-browser rendering fallback for pages that need JavaScript or block simple clients. Blocked requests trigger an automatic proxy escalation ladder (direct → datacenter → residential), so you get your HTML even from protected sites.

✨ Why Choose Us?

  • 🚀 Fast by default — direct connections and parallel downloads, no wasted proxy traffic.
  • 🛡️ Self-healing on blocks — automatically falls back to datacenter and then residential proxies, and keeps the stronger proxy for the rest of the run.
  • 🎭 Browser rendering fallback — pages that fail plain HTTP get rendered in a real headless Chromium browser.
  • 💾 Live results — every page is saved to the dataset the moment it finishes, so even interrupted runs keep their data.
  • 🔗 Flexible input — URLs with or without https://, bulk paste, file upload, or Google Sheets.

🔑 Key Features

  • Bulk URL input (requestListSources editor — paste lists, upload files, link sheets)
  • Full page HTML (fullHtml) and extracted <body> HTML (html) per page
  • Automatic retries with exponential backoff (configurable)
  • Configurable concurrency, page timeout, and polite request delays
  • Detailed per-URL debug info (#debug) — status code, retries, error messages, proxy tier

💰 Pricing

This actor uses the pay-per-event model with one simple event:

EventCharged when
page-downloadedA page's HTML is successfully downloaded and saved to the dataset.

Failed URLs are never charged. When your spending limit is reached, the run stops gracefully and keeps everything collected so far.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a proxy? Usually not — the actor starts with direct connections. If a site blocks the request, it escalates to datacenter and then residential proxies automatically.

Does it render JavaScript? Yes, when needed. Pages that fail the fast HTTP download are automatically rendered in a real headless browser.

Can I paste URLs without https://? Yes — example.com is automatically converted to https://example.com.

What happens to URLs that fail completely? They're still saved to the dataset with an empty fullHtml and full error details in #debug, so you always know exactly what happened — and you're not charged for them.

⚖️ Legal

This actor downloads only publicly available web pages. You are responsible for complying with the target websites' terms of service and applicable laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.) when using the downloaded data.
