Scrape public Linktree data with one API

Fetch public Linktree page data as structured JSON with one SocialCrawl API key. Same Author schema as every other platform. Reads are priced in credits.

Linktree logo
/v1/linktree

1 active endpoint. Author-shaped page card.

  • GET /v1/linktree/page

What Linktree endpoints does SocialCrawl ship?

One live read endpoint for public linktr.ee pages. Display identity, bio when present, avatar when present, and the link stack when the host exposes it. Data API only. No page editing or private dashboards.

/v1/linktree/page

Public linktr.ee page by full URL. Returns Author identity (username, display name, bio, avatar when present) and every link as author._links with id, type, title, and url. No follower counters on this surface.

url

Linktree API1 endpoint supported
View docs

Returns a Linktree page's display name, bio, avatar, and every link on the page with its title and destination URL.

Use it for linktr.ee pages; lnk.bio, Linkme, Komi, and Pillar pages each have their own endpoint.

How the Linktree API works

Linktree is a normal SocialCrawl social surface. You call GET /v1/linktree/page with an API key, spend credits on live misses, and get a single JSON envelope back. No Linktree OAuth. No second SDK.

Authenticate every call

Send your key in the x-api-key header. No Linktree login cookie, no partner portal. The same key works for TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, and the rest of the catalog.

GET with a page URL

Pass the full public linktr.ee URL in the url query param. We validate the format before charging.

Pay in credits, not seats

Standard reads cost 1 credit. Cache hits cost 0. Empty or hard failures refund.

Read one JSON envelope

Every response is the same shape: success, data, credits_used, credits_remaining, request_id, cached. The page lands as a canonical Author object.

The usual integration chain

Most products resolve one public page URL, then store or compare the Author card and link list.

01Page
GET /v1/linktree/page?url=https://linktr.ee/…

Author-shaped page: username, bio, avatar, _links[]

One URL in, structured page card out. No host HTML parsing in your app.

What lands in data

Field names match the rest of SocialCrawl. If you already parse other Author cards, you parse this the same way.

Authorpage

id, username, display_name, avatar_url, bio, url, _links[] (id, type, title, url)

Inside the gateway

Same request lifecycle as every other /v1 platform endpoint. Link-in-bio hosts are not a sidecar.

  1. 01

    Edge receives the call

    Next.js catch-all routes into the Hono social API. We mint a request_id, authenticate the key, then enforce rate limit (600/min) and concurrency (50 in flight per key).

  2. 02

    Validate, then debit

    Registry lookup finds linktree/page. Required url format checks run first. Invalid input returns 400 with no charge. Valid calls debit 1 credit before upstream work.

  3. 03

    Cache or fetch

    A deterministic cache key is built from platform + resource + params. Hit: return immediately, credits_used = 0. Miss: the public page is fetched live. Retries on 5xx/network with a circuit breaker if the source is unhealthy.

  4. 04

    Normalize and return

    Upstream JSON is mapped to Author (plus _links when the host exposes a public link array), validated against the canonical Zod schema, then wrapped in the success envelope and logged for billing audit.

Billing rules that matter in production

  • Standard live miss: 1 credit
  • Cache hit: 0 credits
  • Empty / hard fail: auto-refund
  • Bad params: 400, never charged
  • No credits: 402, never charged
  • Public pages only
  • No write or edit routes
  • Same key as the rest of SocialCrawl
  • Rate limit and concurrency apply as usual

How we get the data

Linktree is public-read creator page data. We normalize it into the SocialCrawl Author schema so your code does not learn a second host-specific layout.

What Linktree is for this API

Public creator landing pages on linktr.ee. Read-only surface for research, monitoring, and product jobs. No page edit, analytics login, or private dashboard access.

How SocialCrawl reaches it

GET /v1/linktree/page fetches the public page URL you pass, live on request, and normalizes the payload before it reaches you.

What leaves our edge

A unified JSON envelope: success, data, credits_used, request_id, cached. The page becomes an Author object. Link rows land under author._links.

What we do not ship live

No write endpoints. No private analytics or click dashboards. No guaranteed follower or verification fields when Linktree does not expose them on the public page.

username, description, profilePictureUrlauthor.username, bio, avatar_urlusername doubles as display identity when no separate name is set

What this API is used for

The jobs this API is most often used for.

1active Linktree endpoints in the registry
1credit cost per live page read

Creator link-stack monitoring and competitive bio audits

Callers concentrate on one page URL at a time: resolve the creator card, then store or diff the ordered link list. Public Linktree page as Author JSON for 1 credit. Same key and envelope as the rest of SocialCrawl. No Linktree OAuth.

Page reads are typically a few seconds on live miss. Cache hits return immediately.

What people build with the Linktree API

The jobs Linktree data is most often used for. Each one is a full recipe with the endpoint chain and pricing.

Use case examples

Common ways teams put this data to work, and the stack each one tends to run.

Creator ops monitors

Python, cron, sheets

Poll fixed linktr.ee URLs and alert when titles or destinations change. page is the only route.

Competitive intel teams

Node, notebooks, BI loads

Capture rival link stacks as structured Author cards and track drops, shops, and affiliate destinations over time.

Backend product jobs

Go, workers, Explorer

Enrich a creator profile with the public bio link card. Cache hits keep recurring reads cheap. Same key as the rest of SocialCrawl.

Call it in two lines

Standard tier is one credit per live call. Cache hits are free.

Endpoints

What data does the Linktree API return?

Every endpoint returns structured JSON in a unified envelope. Computed fields such as engagement rate and content category are included only where the endpoint supports them and the required source inputs are present.

Comparison

How does SocialCrawl compare to DIY scraping for Linktree data?

Same Linktree data, two very different paths. Auth, rate limits, schema, and cost, side by side.

DIY scraping
None to manage, but IP blocks and bot detection are your problem

Response schema

SocialCrawl
Unified JSON shared with 50 other platforms: links, bio, avatar in stable fields
DIY scraping
Raw HTML that changes whenever Linktree ships a redesign

Pricing

SocialCrawl
1 credit per page; 100 free credits on signup, no credit card

How do I scrape Linktree pages with an API?
Send a GET request to /v1/linktree/page with the full linktr.ee URL in the url parameter. SocialCrawl returns structured JSON with the creator's display name, bio, avatar, and every link on the page with its title and destination URL.
What data does the Linktree API return?
The endpoint returns the creator's display name, bio text, avatar image URL, and the full list of links on the page. Each link includes its title, destination URL, and any metadata Linktree exposes (video embeds, music previews, shop cards, social icons).
How much does the Linktree API cost?
Each Linktree page request costs 1 credit on the standard tier. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card required, so you can scrape around 100 Linktree pages before paying anything.
Is scraping Linktree pages legal?
SocialCrawl reads only publicly visible Linktree pages, the same content anyone sees when they open the linktr.ee URL in a browser. Make sure your use case complies with Linktree's terms of service and applicable data protection regulations. SocialCrawl operates under a documented GDPR legitimate-interest framework: public, logged-out data only, no credential use, short-lived caches (2 to 30 minutes) with no persistent store, and a public opt-out channel for anyone whose public info appears in responses. Full details: socialcrawl.dev/legal/public-data-notice.
Can I use the Linktree API in production?
Yes. The endpoint is built for production workloads with consistent response times, upstream retry handling, and a unified schema that stays stable when Linktree ships UI or layout changes.
What is the best Linktree scraper API?
SocialCrawl is a strong pick when you want structured JSON without maintaining a scraper: GET /v1/linktree/page returns the display name, bio, avatar, and every link for 1 credit per request, on the same key and unified schema as 50 other platforms. New accounts start with 100 free credits and no credit card.
Is there a Linktree data API?
There is no official public Linktree data API for reading arbitrary public pages, so SocialCrawl is the practical route. One call, GET /v1/linktree/page with the linktr.ee URL, returns the creator's display name, bio, avatar, and every link with its title and destination as structured JSON for 1 credit. It runs on the same x-api-key as SocialCrawl's other 50 platforms, so you get a stable schema without building or hosting a parser.
Linktree scraping API vs the official Linktree API: what's the difference?
With SocialCrawl there is no app review or approval queue. Sign up and call Linktree endpoints immediately with a single x-api-key. Responses share one unified schema with every other SocialCrawl platform, and credit-based pricing replaces per-platform quotas. Official APIs are still the right choice for posting and other write actions: SocialCrawl is read-only data.
