How to get Pillar page

TL;DR
To get Pillar page, sign up for a free Captapi key, then send one GET request to /v1/pillar/page with your input. You get clean JSON back in seconds for 4 credits per call — no OAuth, scraping or platform SDKs. Extract the public links and profile fields from a Pillar page.

How to get Pillar page (step by step)

  1. 1

    Get a free API key

    Create a free Captapi account (100 credits, no card) and generate an API key from the dashboard.

  2. 2

    Call the Pillar Page API

    Send an authenticated GET request to /v1/pillar/page with your input. No OAuth, no scraping setup.

  3. 3

    Read the JSON response

    Parse the clean JSON response. Pass cache=true for a free 24h cache hit; default is always fresh.

Code example

curl "https://api.captapi.com/v1/pillar/page?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpillar.io%2Fexample" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer capt_live_..."
# or: -H "x-api-key: capt_live_..."

What the response looks like

{
  "success": true,
  "data": {
    "platform": "pillar",
    "url": "https://pillar.io/example",
    "username": "example",
    "name": "Example Creator",
    "description": "Creator bio",
    "linkCount": 2,
    "links": [
      {
        "title": "Website",
        "url": "https://example.com"
      },
      {
        "title": "YouTube",
        "url": "https://www.youtube.com/@example"
      }
    ]
  }
}

Billing metadata (credits charged, cache hit/miss) is returned in the X-Captapi-Credits and X-Captapi-Cache response headers.
