How to call Yellow Pages - search results extractor

Pass the URL of a yellowpages.com page and this extractor's pinned id. Authenticate every request with your API key in the X-API-Key header (a test key, exth_test_..., returns simulated results at no cost). Every parameter and error code is described in the API reference.

Realtime: one URL, result in the response

GET https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/extract

Authentication required via X-API-Key header

Parameter Type Required Description
target_url string Yes The URL to scrape and extract data from
extractor_id string Yes This extractor's ID with a version pin: @extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1. Use @1 for the latest 1.x or @1.2.3 for an exact version.
return_raw_html boolean No Include raw HTML in response (default: false)
async_fallback boolean No Default true: a request still queued after the wait limit becomes an async job (202 with job_id). false: 503 queue_timeout instead
webhook_url string No HTTPS URL notified if the request becomes a job (job.completed / job.failed)

Code examples

curl -X GET "https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/extract?target_url=https://example.com&extractor_id=%40extracthub1%2Fyellowpages-search%401" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Example response

Shape of a 200 answer (placeholder values). metadata also carries costUsd, and the X-Extractor-Version header names the exact version that ran. With a live API key, X-Credit-Balance gives your credit balance in USD after the request (4 decimals); a 402 body has top_up_url. A busy queue answers 202 with job_id, status_url and result_url; poll GET /api/extractor/jobs/{id} (or cancel it with POST /api/extractor/jobs/{id}/cancel).

Batch: many URLs in one request

The batch runs in the background with the version resolved once at submission. Read the results as NDJSON pages with a stable cursor; succeeded URLs are charged, and failed URLs only when their scrape reached the provider. If your credit runs out the batch pauses and resumes when credit is available, and POST /api/extractor/batch/{id}/cancel stops it. Signed webhooks report batch.completed, batch.failed and batch.paused.

curl -X POST "https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/batch" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "extractor_id": "@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1",
    "targets": [
      { "url": "https://yellowpages.com/..." },
      { "url": "https://yellowpages.com/..." }
    ],
    "webhook_url": "https://your-app.example/webhooks/extracthub"
  }'

# Progress, then results as NDJSON pages (cursor = last index)
curl "https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/batch/BATCH_ID" -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
curl "https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/batch/BATCH_ID/results" -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"

In a pipeline

In the dashboard's pipeline builder, add Yellow Pages - search results as an extractor node and set its version pin to 1 (or exactly 1.0.0). A previous node can feed it the URLs it extracts; pipelines run manually or on a cron schedule, report progress live and export JSON, CSV or NDJSON.

With an AI agent (MCP)

Connect Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Cursor to the ExtractHub MCP server (https://api.extracthub.io/mcp, your API key as a Bearer token) and ask in plain language. The agent calls extract with this extractor's pinned id, or create_batch for many URLs, at the same price and limits as the API. Use a test key to try it without credit. Set up the MCP server.

Ask your agent
Use ExtractHub to extract https://yellowpages.com/... with @extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1

  "tool": "extract",

}

Versions and health

Each version is immutable. @N resolves to the newest non-yanked version of major N; a deprecated major keeps working until its sunset date and its responses carry Deprecation and Sunset headers. Health comes from scheduled checks of the released versions.

Yellow Pages - search results extractor: frequently asked questions

Is Yellow Pages - search results extractor a yellowpages.com scraper?

Yes. Yellow Pages - search results is an ExtractHub extractor: a saved, versioned web scraper for yellowpages.com pages that returns the page as structured JSON. Call it as a yellowpages.com scraper API with extractor_id=@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1; it never changes under you, because every released version is immutable.

What data does Yellow Pages - search results extractor return?

It returns a JSON object with 5 top-level fields: searchTitle (string), totalResults (number), businesses (object{categories,city,image,locality,name,openStatus,phone,position,postalCode,ratingStars,reviewCount,snippet,state,streetAddress,url,website,yearsInBusiness,yearsWithYellowPages}[]), schemaListings (object{city,name,openingHours,postalCode,rating,reviewCount,state,streetAddress,telephone,url}[]) and nextPageUrl (string). The extracted data panel on this page shows a sample.

How do I call Yellow Pages - search results extractor?

Send GET or POST https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/extract with your API key in the X-API-Key header, extractor_id=@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1 and the URL of a yellowpages.com page as the target. For many URLs use POST https://api.extracthub.io/api/extractor/batch, and in a pipeline add it as an extractor node pinned to 1.

Can an AI agent use Yellow Pages - search results extractor?

Yes. Connect Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor or another MCP client to the ExtractHub MCP server at https://api.extracthub.io/mcp with your API key, then ask it to extract a yellowpages.com page: the agent calls the extract tool with extractor_id=@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1 (or create_batch for many URLs), at the same price as the API.

Which version should I pin?

Pin the major (@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1) to receive fixes and added fields automatically, or the exact version (@extracthub1/yellowpages-search@1.0.0) to freeze the output. A breaking schema change is always released as a new major, so a major pin never loses or retypes a field.

Does it render JavaScript or use a proxy?

No, it fetches the HTML without JavaScript rendering and it goes through a proxy. Calls are charged at the premium tier (through the scraping proxy, no JavaScript). These settings are part of each released version; JavaScript rendering, XHR capture and browser actions always use the proxy.
