An API to parse content in article form from a URL.
https://document-parser-api.lateral.io/
Every request must be authenticated with your subscription key. This must be sent as an HTTP header:
Subscription-Key: YOUR_API_KEY
Requests are limited to 1 per second. Information about the rate limiting is stored in the X-RateLimit-Limit and X-RateLimit-Remaining response headers.
If we have already fetched a URL in the past day, a cached copy of the object will be returned. If a day has passed since we last parsed the URL then it will be re-fetched. This should cover any issues that may arise if an article changes over time.
Extract useful information from an article or blog post.
