Web access APIs

Bright Data Web Access APIs (thousands of scrapers) handle unblocking, crawling, dynamic content and SERP data collection with proxy rotation and CAPTCHA solving.

Bright Data’s Web Access APIs provide a reliable and scalable way to programmatically access the public web. They are designed for teams that need consistent results from websites that use blocking, rate limiting, or dynamic content.

Instead of managing proxies, retries, sessions, and anti-bot logic yourself, Web Access APIs handle these challenges automatically, allowing you to integrate web data collection directly into your applications, pipelines, or analytics workflows.

Our products

Web Unlocker API

The Web Unlocker API provides automated access to websites that actively block bots or non-human traffic. It dynamically manages IP rotation, browser fingerprints, sessions, and CAPTCHA solving to maintain reliable access across protected domains.

SERP API

The SERP API delivers structured, real-time search engine results from Google, Bing, DuckDuckGo, Yandex and more, without managing proxies, CAPTCHAs or parsing. It returns clean data such as rankings, organic links, ads and other SERP elements.

Browser API

The Browser API enables data extraction from JavaScript-heavy and interactive websites by running scripts on remote, fully managed browsers. It includes built-in unblocking and session handling while allowing full control over browser actions.

Web Access APIs automatically handle:

• Website blocking and rate limits
• IP rotation and session management

This ensures reliable data delivery even when target websites change their defenses.

When to use Web Access APIs

Use Web Access APIs when you need:

• Programmatic access to web data
• Reliable results at scale
