Scrape Tumblr blog posts and tagged posts with text, tags, note counts, reblog sources, image and video URLs plus blog info. No login needed.

Read full description

A Tumblr scraping connector that harvests public Tumblr blog posts and tag feeds (Top or Recent), extracting one record per post with full post text (including reblogged content) and the blog's original contribution, tags, engagement metrics (notes/likes/reblogs/replies), reblog provenance (which blog/reblog root it came from), direct full-size media URLs (images, videos, audio, external links), content summary, NSFW/adult flag, and blog metadata (title, description, avatar, total post count, last-updated info). The connector operates without authentication by crawling the publicly visible Tumblr pages, supports blog-mode (newest-first) and tag-mode (Top or Recent sorting), and can be configured to include or exclude reblogs while paginating through posts to collect large sets of posts, tags and media assets.

      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://api.usesourcelane.com/mcp",
        "--header",
        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer sl_live_your_agent_key"
      }
