An agent can drive an import.io extractor end to end: start or cancel crawl runs, run adhoc extractions for the freshest data, schedule recurring runs, watch a run feed for completion, and fetch the latest results as CSV or JSON. This lets an agent automate web data collection and hand structured rows to downstream tools without writing per-endpoint code.
import.io splits the scrape lifecycle into small, single-purpose APIs (schedule, run, extraction, data, rss) that each target a dedicated host, so an agent can trigger, monitor, and read from a configured extractor as separate scoped operations rather than one monolithic scraping call.

Install Jentic One Beta
Connect the import.io APIs to your agent
Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the import.io APIs, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.
Why Jentic?
What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.
Setup
Wiring import.io by hand means passing your apikey as a query parameter against five separate hosts (schedule, run, extraction, data, and rss) and shaping each request yourself. Through Jentic you install once, import the import.io APIs you need from the Jentic API Directory, store the apikey once, and your agent calls them.
Permission scoping
The import.io surfaces range from read-only reads and feeds to run triggers and schedule deletes. Because your own rules choose which operations an agent may call, you can allow it to read results and monitor runs while withholding operations that start crawls or delete schedules.
Credential isolation
Your import.io apikey is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context, and one key covers all five APIs.
Intent-based discovery
Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'schedule an extractor' or 'fetch the latest extractor results', and Jentic returns the matching import.io operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.
FAQs
Specific to using import.io APIs through Jentic.
What can an agent do across the import.io APIs?
An agent can manage the full lifecycle of a configured extractor: schedule recurring runs, start or cancel runs on demand, run one-off adhoc extractions, monitor run history through a feed, and read the latest results as CSV or JSON.
Do the import.io APIs share one credential?
Yes. Every surface authenticates with the same apikey query parameter, so a single import.io account key works across the Schedule, Run, Extraction, Data, and RSS APIs.
What is the difference between the Extraction API and the Data API?
Extraction runs the extractor live and returns rows inline, which is best when freshness matters. Data reads the latest stored crawl output as CSV or JSON, which is cheaper and faster when a recent run already exists.
How do these APIs fit together into a scrape pipeline?
Schedule or Run starts work, RSS reports when a run completes, and Data exposes the resulting rows. Chaining them lets an agent trigger, watch, and read a crawl without manual steps.
Can these APIs scrape any URL or build new extractors?
No. They operate on extractors that are already configured in import.io. There is no operation to author an extractor or scrape an arbitrary URL that has no extractor defined for it.
How does an agent pick the right import.io API for a task?
Use Run or Schedule to trigger crawls, RSS to detect completion, Extraction for immediate inline results, and Data to read the most recent stored output. Through Jentic the agent searches by intent and gets the matching operation and its schema.
