Map a website

Map a website

Returns the URLs found on a site, with titles and descriptions, without fetching each page's content.

Set up

Use the first option your agent supports.

MCP (official, remote)

Add this server to your agent's MCP settings, then sign in when asked.

{ "mcpServers": { "firecrawl": { "url": "https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp-oauth" } } }

Call the MCP tool firecrawl_map.

Server URL: https://mcp.firecrawl.dev/v2/mcp-oauth

CLI (official)

Install the command, then confirm it runs.

npm install -g firecrawl-cli
firecrawl --version

Run firecrawl map.

Set $FIRECRAWL_API_KEY in your environment first (get a key: https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys).

API (official)

• Base URL: https://api.firecrawl.dev/v2
• Endpoint: POST /map
• Auth: send the header Authorization: Bearer $FIRECRAWL_API_KEY
• Get a key: https://www.firecrawl.dev/app/api-keys
• Docs: https://docs.firecrawl.dev/api-reference/introduction

Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.

Rules

• Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
• Never print API keys.
