Yandex is served through the Universal Web Scraper API

You scrape Yandex with Chocodata's Universal Web Scraper API: point it at any Yandex URL and get the page back as structured JSON. Residential proxies, rotation, and retries are handled for you, with no Yandex-specific setup. The same API key and credits work here as on every dedicated endpoint.

About Yandex

Yandex Images is the image-search vertical of Yandex, the leading Russian search engine, known for strong reverse-image and visual search. The image thumbnails, source page URLs, image dimensions, titles, and host domains in the results grid are the public data to scrape.

Scraping note: Yandex Images uses an infinite-scroll grid and strong anti-bot defenses with frequent CAPTCHAs, so extraction needs proxy rotation and dynamic loading handled.

Example Yandex page

https://yandex.com/images/search?text=mountain+landscape

Pass a URL like this as url= to the Universal Web Scraper API and get it back as JSON.

Fields you can extract from Yandex

check_small image thumbnail URL check_small full image URL check_small source page URL check_small image title check_small image dimensions check_small host domain

Common use: A reverse-image or visual-search tool scrapes Yandex Images because its visual-match results often surface sources other engines miss.

Everything you need to scrape Yandex

Residential proxies keep your own IP out of every request, the JSON comes back clean, and 1,000 free requests a month let you prove yandex scraper api works before you add a card.

data_object

Yandex Scraper API FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Yandex?

expand_more
Scraping publicly accessible Yandex data is generally legal in the US under the Ninth Circuit's hiQ v. LinkedIn ruling, which held that scraping public web data does not violate the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. It does not override Yandex's own Terms of Service, which are a contract matter, so check those for your use case and comply with data laws such as GDPR. This is general information, not legal advice.

How do I scrape Yandex without getting blocked?

expand_more
You scrape Yandex without getting blocked by sending the URL to the Universal Web Scraper API, which fetches it through rotating residential proxies and retries on soft blocks. Your own IP is never used, so Yandex's anti-bot layer sees ordinary residential traffic instead of a server.

What data does the Yandex Scraper API return?

expand_more
Through the Universal Web Scraper API you get the Yandex page back as JSON: rendered HTML, plain text, or auto-parsed content depending on the parse mode you pass. You choose the URL, Chocodata returns the data.

How much does the Yandex Scraper API cost?

expand_more
The Yandex Scraper API costs nothing to start: the Free plan includes 1,000 requests per month (5,000 credits) across all 235 targets. After that, monthly plans begin at $19, or you top up pay-as-you-go at $0.90 per 1,000 successful requests. One request is 5 credits, and non-2xx responses are never charged.

Do I need a Yandex account or login?

expand_more
No Yandex login is needed for public pages. You point the Universal Web Scraper API at a publicly accessible Yandex URL with your Chocodata API key; you do not hand over any Yandex credentials. Login-gated content is not supported.
