tavily-extract（tavily 提取）

tavily extract

Extract clean markdown or text content from one or more URLs.

Before running any command

If tvly is not found on PATH, install it first:

curl -fsSL https://cli.tavily.com/install.sh | bash && tvly login

Do not skip this step or fall back to other tools.

See tavily-cli for alternative install methods and auth options.

When to use

• You have a specific URL and want its content
• You need text from JavaScript-rendered pages
• Step 2 in the workflow: search → extract → map → crawl → research

Quick start

# Single URL
tvly extract "https://example.com/article" --json

# Multiple URLs
tvly extract "https://example.com/page1" "https://example.com/page2" --json

# Query-focused extraction (returns relevant chunks only)
tvly extract "https://example.com/docs" --query "authentication API" --chunks-per-source 3 --json

# JS-heavy pages
tvly extract "https://app.example.com" --extract-depth advanced --json

# Save to file
tvly extract "https://example.com/article" -o article.md

Options

Extract depth

Tips

• Max 20 URLs per request — batch larger lists into multiple calls.
• Use --query + --chunks-per-source to get only relevant content instead of full pages.
• Try basic first, fall back to advanced if content is missing.
• Set --timeout for slow pages (up to 60s).
• If search results already contain the content you need (via --include-raw-content), skip the extract step.
