Bright Data actions 10

Every Bright Data action below is a callable tool any Definable persona can invoke.

Trigger Site Crawl

Tool to trigger an asynchronous site crawl job to extract content across multiple pages or entire domains. Returns a snapshot_id required by BRIGHTDATA_GET_SNAPSHOT_STATUS (poll until complete) and BRIGHTDATA_GET_SNAPSHOT_RESULTS (call only after completion; querying early yields empty or partial data). Use when you need to start a crawl for a given dataset and list of URLs. Large crawls can produce very large payloads — fetch results incrementally.

Browse Available Scrapers

Tool to list all available pre-made scrapers (datasets) from Bright Data's marketplace. Use when you need to browse available data sources for structured scraping.

Filter Dataset

Tool to apply custom filter criteria to a marketplace dataset (BETA). Use after selecting a dataset to generate a filtered snapshot.

Get Available Cities

Tool to get available static network cities for a given country. Use when you need to configure static proxy endpoints after selecting a country.

Get Available Countries

Tool to list available countries and their ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes. Use when you need to configure zones with valid country codes before provisioning proxies.

Download Scraped Data

Tool to retrieve the scraped data from a completed crawl job by snapshot ID. Only call after confirming the job is complete via BRIGHTDATA_GET_SNAPSHOT_STATUS — querying before completion yields empty or partial data. Use after triggering a crawl or filtering a dataset to download the collected data.

Check Crawl Status

Tool to check the processing status of a crawl job using snapshot ID. Call before attempting to download results to ensure data collection is complete.

List Unlocker Zones

Tool to list your configured Web Unlocker zones and proxy endpoints. Use to view available zones for web scraping and bot protection bypass.

SERP Search

Tool to perform SERP (Search Engine Results Page) searches across different search engines using Bright Data's SERP Scrape API. Use when you need to retrieve search results, trending topics, or competitive analysis data. This action submits an asynchronous request and returns a response ID for tracking.

Web Unlocker

Tool to bypass bot detection, captcha, and other anti-scraping measures to extract content from websites. Use when you need to scrape websites that block automated access or require JavaScript rendering. Some responses may still contain CAPTCHA challenge pages or incomplete HTML; inspect the response before retrying, and avoid aggressive retry loops.
