How do I extract clean content from a list of URLs?

Short answer: You can extract urls in Tavily by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Tavily Extract URLs action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Extract URLs.

What does the Extract URLs action do in Tavily?
Fetches a list of URLs and returns clean, structured Markdown for each, stripping nav, ads, and boilerplate. Use this in RAG pipelines or when you need to feed pages into an LLM context.
What inputs does Extract URLs require?
Required: URLs. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Tavily returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does Extract URLs support batch operations?
Yes. Run Extract URLs inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles Tavily's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.

Action
Crawl Site
Crawls a website starting from the given URL and returns clean Markdown for every reachable page. Best for RAG ingestion, knowledge-base imports, or competitive content scrapes.
Action
Map Site
Discovers URLs on a site without downloading or parsing page content. Much faster than Crawl when you only need the URL graph (sitemaps, audits, route inventories).
Action
Web Search
Runs a web search through Tavily and returns fresh, AI-optimized results tuned for LLM agents and RAG. Returns ranked snippets with URLs so the model can cite sources.
