# Linktree Data API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/linktree)

> The Linktree API is one focused endpoint: GET /v1/linktree/page takes a linktr.ee URL and returns the full page — 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 and unified schema as SocialCrawl's other 43 platforms, so link-in-bio data drops straight into your existing pipeline.

TL;DR: SocialCrawl's Linktree API exposes 1 endpoints, 1 credit per call, all returning one unified JSON schema with AI-enriched fields. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Endpoints

| Endpoint | Method | Path | Credits | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Page | GET | `/v1/linktree/page` | 1 | Get Linktree page |

## Code example

```bash
curl "https://www.socialcrawl.dev/v1/linktree/page?url=https%3A%2F%2Flinktr.ee%2Fcharlidamelio" \
  -H "x-api-key: sc_YOUR_API_KEY"
```

Every response shares one JSON envelope: `{ success, platform, endpoint, data, credits_used, credits_remaining }`.

## SocialCrawl vs DIY scraping

| Feature | SocialCrawl | DIY scraping |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Setup | One GET request with your API key — first page data in minutes | Headless browser, proxy pool, and HTML parser to build and host |
| Authentication | Single x-api-key header, the same key across all 44 platforms | None to manage, but IP blocks and bot detection are your problem |
| Response schema | Unified JSON shared with 43 other platforms — links, bio, avatar in stable fields | Raw HTML that changes whenever Linktree ships a redesign |
| Pricing | 1 credit per page; 100 free credits on signup, no credit card | Proxy and server costs plus engineering hours, hard to predict |
| Maintenance | Upstream layout changes are absorbed behind the stable schema | Your parser breaks silently on every UI update |

## FAQ

### 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 43 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 43 platforms, so you get a stable schema without building or hosting a parser.
