`GET https://api.deepinfo.com/v1/lookup/webdata?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.mozilla.org%2Fen-US%2F&max_file_size=1024`
Web data with max_file_size=1024: the HTML is larger, so html.source_code holds a placeholder message and html.content is null.
Example 4 of 6 · [Web Data Examples](/reference/lookup/web-data/examples/) · endpoint: [Web Data](/reference/lookup/web-data/)
Tags: `param` `url` · `param` `max_file_size` · `value` `https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/` · `value` `1024`
Asks for the web data of `https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/` with `max_file_size=1024` (bytes).
The page's HTML (72,316 characters in the default example) is far larger than 1,024 bytes, so `html.source_code` holds the message "HTML Source Code was not parsed because it exceeded the maximum file size." and `html.content` and `html.content_keywords` are `null`. The rest is still there: the technologies, `html.meta`, the link lists, `favicon`, `robots_txt` and `http.headers`.
