Automation is key when it comes to web data acquisition. If you have identical scraping jobs that you execute on a regular basis, let Scheduler do the work for you. Create multiple jobs, use the Cron expression to set the time intervals, and get automatic data updates at ease.
Enjoy peace of mind knowing that with scheduled jobs, you’ll receive updates and data to your preferred cloud storage automatically and regularly.
To receive regular data updates, you’ll no longer need to send new requests and create or maintain scheduling scripts. Just set up recurring scraping jobs, and we’ll do the rest – once the scraped and parsed data is sent to your cloud storage, you’ll receive a notification.
Scheduler is a feature of all our Scraper APIs for setting up recurring scraping and parsing jobs. Its process can be broken down into three parts: you set up the frequency using Cron, provide the scraping and parsing parameters, and set the end time.
Step 1
Set a frequency rate at which we’ll be executing the scraping jobs.
Step 2
Provide us with the job parameter sets of your choice.
Step 3
Get a notification as soon as the result is in your cloud storage.
Step 4
Set the end time and we’ll stop delivering the data.
Scheduler is an additional feature any of our Scraper API users get for free.

By scraping and parsing data according to a set interval, Scheduler does the heavy lifting – the data is sent to the client’s cloud storage so they don’t need to send identical requests repeatedly.

Scheduler is a free feature of Oxylabs’ Scraper APIs. It allows you to automate regular and identical scraping jobs as well as receive data at the frequency of your choice. This way, you no longer need to send new requests or create scheduling scripts to create repetitive scraping and parsing jobs.
You have to submit a request for us to create a schedule, where you specify:
If you provide us with the callback URL, we’ll send you a notification once the scheduled job is done. You’ll be able to access the scraped and parsed results in your cloud storage (if you specified it.)
