Box Office Mojo API endpoint
Use Crawlora's Box Office Mojo release detail API to extract supported public Box Office Mojo data as structured JSON. This page includes request parameters, cURL examples, response schema, error behavior, credit cost, and a Playground link for testing before integration.
/boxofficemojo/releaseReturns normalized Box Office Mojo release summary fields and domestic daily rows from a public release page. Pass exactly one of `id`, `path`, or `url`. Developers commonly use this endpoint for data enrichment, monitoring, research dashboards, internal automation, and agent-native workflows that need repeatable structured public web data. Authentication uses the documented Crawlora headers, and usage is metered with the credit cost shown on this page.
Request parameters are generated from the active endpoint catalog. Required values must be sent before Crawlora can call the upstream public web data source.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| id | string | No | Box Office Mojo release id | ||
| path | string | No | Box Office Mojo release path | ||
| url | string | No | Absolute https://www.boxofficemojo.com release URL | ||
| x-api-key (header) | string | Yes | API key required |
curl -X GET "https://api.crawlora.net/api/v1/boxofficemojo/release" \ -H "x-api-key: $CRAWLORA_API_KEY"
Send your scraping API key in the x-api-key header. Use the console API Keys page to rotate or select the active key.
Endpoint usage is metered in credits. The plan prices, included credits, limits, and overage rates below match the active backend billing configuration.
| Plan | Price | Included credits | Daily cap | Rate limit | Overage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0/mo | 2,000 | 500 daily credits | 5/min | No overage |
| Starter | $9/mo | 20,000 | 5,000 daily credits | 15/min | $0.75/1,000 overage credits when enabled |
| Growth | $29/mo | 100,000 | 25,000 daily credits | 45/min | $0.45/1,000 overage credits when enabled |

This endpoint is executed through Crawlora's managed scraping infrastructure.
- The response includes title, release id, source URL, summary fields, and domestic daily rows. - Parser drift, challenge pages, malformed upstream tables, or missing required release markers return an upstream error. Example response: ```json { "code": 200, "msg": "OK", "data": { "title": "Avatar: Fire and Ash", "release_id": "rl3389031937", "summary": { "distributor": "20th Century Studios", "opening_raw": "$89,160,860" }, "daily_grosses": [ { "date": "Dec 25", "daily_gross_raw": "$24,096,415" } ], "public_page_derived": true } } ```
Crawlora does not silently return bad data when the upstream page cannot be used.
| Status | Common failure case |
|---|---|
| 400 | Invalid input or missing required parameter |
| 429 | Plan or endpoint rate limit exceeded |
| 500 | Internal execution error |
| 502 | Upstream platform failed, returned unusable HTML, or served a challenge page that could not be resolved |
When possible, Crawlora returns structured error context so your integration can retry, back off, or inspect the request.
