List every Internet Archive snapshot of a URL, page, or whole domain. Timestamp, snapshot URL, status code, mime type, content length. No login.
A scraper that enumerates Internet Archive (Wayback Machine) snapshots for a URL, page path, hostname, or entire domain (including subdomains), producing per-capture metadata such as capture timestamp, direct snapshot URL, HTTP status code, MIME type, byte size, and a content digest for deduplication; supports match modes (exact URL, prefix, host, domain), date-range / status-code / MIME-type filtering, collapse/merge of identical captures by content digest, and cursor-based pagination using the Wayback Machine CDX resume key to retrieve large or unlimited numbers of captures across multiple runs—outputs structured, snapshot-level archival history and change-tracking metadata for each archived capture.

Call it via Sourcelane
curl -X POST https://api.usesourcelane.com/v1/call \

-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"listing":"wayback-machine-snapshots-scraper","params":{"url":"example.com","maxItems":5},"maxResults":10}'Request params
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
url | string | required | The URL to look up. Use 'Match Type = Prefix' or 'Domain' to scan an entire site rather than a single page. |
matchType | string | optional | How to match the URL. 'Exact' only returns snapshots of the exact URL; 'Domain' returns snapshots for the domain and all subdomains. |
dateFrom | string | optional | Optional. Only return snapshots archived on or after this UTC date. |
dateTo | string | optional | Optional. Only return snapshots archived on or before this UTC date. |
statusCode | string | optional | Optional. Only return snapshots with this HTTP status (e.g. 200, 301, 404). |
mimeType | string | optional | Optional. Only return snapshots with this MIME type (e.g. text/html, image/jpeg). |
collapseDuplicates | boolean | optional | If on, identical captures (same content digest) are deduplicated so you only see snapshots where the content actually changed. |
maxItems | integer | optional | Maximum snapshots to return. 0 = no cap (paginates until everything is fetched or the run times out). Capped at 100 per call. |
pageId | string | optional | Optional. Paste the NEXT_PAGE_ID (CDX resume key) from the previous run's Key-value store to continue from where you left off. |
Each result contains
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
timestamp | string | Timestamp |
archivedAt | string | Archived At |
originalUrl | string | Original Url |
snapshotUrl | string | Snapshot Url |
statusCode | integer | Status Code |
mimeType | string | Mime Type |
contentLength | integer | Content Length |
digest | string | Digest |
