Handle and Process Responses via ScraperAPI in PHP

Learn how to scrape and handle API responses with ScraperAPI in PHP. Get UTF-8 encoded data, JSON autoparse for supported sites, and error retries up to 70 seconds.

At ScraperAPI, we ensure that the data you need is handled with precision and delivered in a timely and efficient manner.

Depending on the outcome of each request, the API returns specific status codes. In case of failure, we will retry for up to 70 seconds to maximize the chances of a successful response before returning an error.

For certain supported websites, we offer an autoparse feature that returns parsed data in JSON format, streamlining your data processing.

All content is standardized to UTF-8 encoding, so you receive consistent results no matter the encoding format of the original site.
