firecrawl map

Discover URLs on a site. Use --search to find a specific page within a large site.

When to use

  • You need to find a specific subpage on a large site
  • You want a list of all URLs on a site before scraping or crawling
  • Step 3 in the workflow escalation pattern: search → scrape → map → crawl → interact

Quick start

# Find a specific page on a large site
firecrawl map "<url>" --search "authentication" -o .firecrawl/filtered.txt

# Get all URLs
firecrawl map "<url>" --limit 500 --json -o .firecrawl/urls.json

Options

OptionDescription
--limit <n>Max number of URLs to return
--search <query>Filter URLs by search query
`--sitemap <include\skip\
--include-subdomainsInclude subdomain URLs
--jsonOutput as JSON
-o, --output <path>Output file path

Tips

  • Map + scrape is a common pattern: use map --search to find the right URL, then scrape it.
  • Example: map https://docs.example.com --search "auth" → found /docs/api/authenticationscrape that URL.

FAQ

What command does firecrawl-map run?

The firecrawl-map skill runs the Firecrawl CLI `map` command via Bash, including `firecrawl map` or `npx firecrawl map`. It discovers URLs on a target site and supports optional `--search` filtering.

When should I use firecrawl-map instead of scraping?

Use firecrawl-map when you need a URL inventory or must find a specific subpage on a large site before scraping. Mapping reveals site structure; scraping fetches page content after you know which URLs matter.
