Web to TXT Java Overview
Extract UTF‑8 plain text from websites (URL input) using a modern headless renderer. Execute page JavaScript and wait for a CSS selector so dynamic content is fully loaded. Limit extraction to specific elements with selectors, inject custom CSS/JS, hide elements, and block ads or cookie consent banners. Send custom headers and cookies or use basic auth for gated pages; adjust timeouts and delays for reliability. Ideal for indexing, ETL, and analytics.

- Each header is separated by
|. - Each name/value pair is separated by

ExtractElements
StringSpecifies a CSS selector to identify and extract specific DOM elements from the page,
instead of scraping the entire content, allowing for more targeted and efficient data retrieval;
for example, to select elements by class name use .class-name, to select an element by its ID use #elementId,
or to select elements by their tag name use tagName.
AuthUsername
StringHTTP authentication username. Could be used if conversion web page is protected with HTTP authentication.
AuthPassword
StringHTTP authentication password. Could be used if conversion web page is protected with HTTP authentication.
Cookies
StringSet additional cookies for the page request. Example: cookiename1=cookievalue1; cookiename2=cookievalue2; cookiename3=cookievalue3
StoreFile
Bool Default: FalseWhen the StoreFile parameter is set to True, your converted file is written to ConvertAPI’s encrypted, temporary storage and made available via a time-limited secure download URL, valid for up to 3 hours. After this period, the file is permanently deleted.
When StoreFile is set to False, conversion happens entirely in-memory. The raw file bytes are streamed back in the API response without touching disk or external storage, ensuring maximum security and zero persistence so that only you can access the content.
