What teams do with it.

Plans that start from real data

Cline inspects the live page before it proposes changes to your parser or integration.

Check whether this page’s markup changed and fix our extractor if it did.

Autonomous data collection

Let Cline paginate, extract and write the results without a browser on your machine.

Collect every review on this product across all pages into reviews.json.

Approve once, reuse always

Auto-approve the read-only Import.io tools so long runs don’t stall on prompts.

Fetch these ten URLs and summarize what changed since yesterday’s snapshot.

Set it up.

  1. In Cline, open MCP Servers and choose Remote Servers, or edit cline_mcp_settings.json.
  2. Add importio with the URL https://mcp.import.io/mcp and your bearer key.
  3. Choose which Import.io tools Cline may call without asking.

Questions.

Which Import.io tools are safe to auto-approve?

The read-only ones: importio_web_fetch, importio_page_text, importio_page_links, importio_get_html and importio_extract_data. Keep form input and click actions on manual approval if the agent works on logged-in pages.

What does the Import.io MCP cost?

Signup includes 10,000 successful calls. After that it is $0.0002 per successful call. Setup requests, tool listings, malformed requests, blocked requests and failed upstream calls are never billed, and you can set a monthly spend limit that stops paid usage when reached.

OAuth or API key?

Use OAuth in interactive clients that support it: the client opens a sign-in, stores the credentials and reuses them. Use an API key for scripts, servers and clients without OAuth, sent as Authorization: Bearer mcp_live_…. Keep keys out of prompts and shared config files.

Which tools does the server expose?

importio_web_fetch, importio_render, importio_extract_data and importio_get_html, page helpers such as importio_page_text, importio_page_links and importio_search_cards, and browser actions for clicks, form input, scrolling, pagination, waits, screenshots and captcha handling. Requests can pick a proxy country and type, with bounded retries when a page blocks.
