@jonassc You can scrape the entire website using the API and then with some other tools, e.g your preferred programming language, extract specific elements.

@jonassc I think it is a good idea to give users the flexibility to extract selected elements from the requested URL. We will add it to our backlog. Thanks for your feedback! Regarding response loading time, it probably does slightly slow it down to load a page, but I think it's negligible compared to the entire request processing time. Moreover, our pricing is request-based and does not depend on page size so it does not impose any addition charge. Also, it is probably more convenient for most use cases to get the entire page in response to troubleshoot in case something changes in the source HTML or if there are some unexpected results.
