GET /webarchive/search/{search_id} returns 200 OK with archive search status JSON. When successful it will retrieve: * The number of entries for your query * The estimated size and cost of the full Data Snapshot **Pricing & size:** `estimate_batch_size` is measured in bytes. `dump_cost_usd` is an estimated total cost based on `files_count` and your current cache/archive pricing tier. The `cost_breakdown` object shows separate costs for cache vs archive pages. ## OpenAPI ````yaml api-reference/web-archive-api GET /webarchive/search/{search_id} openapi: 3.1.0 info: title: BrightData Web Archive API version: 1.0.0 description: API to search and retrieve archived web pages. servers: - url: https://api.brightdata.com security: - bearerAuth: [] paths: /webarchive/search/{search_id}: get: summary: Get search status description: >- Check the status and results of a previously submitted web archive search query. parameters: - name: search_id in: path required: true description: Unique identifier for the search schema: type: string example: ucd_abc123xyz responses: '200': description: Search status response content: application/json: schema: oneOf: - title: Success type: object properties: search_id: type: string description: Unique identifier for the search status: type: string description: 'Current status: `in_progress`, `done`, or `failed`' enum: - done filters: type: object description: The filters used for this search (echoed back) files_count: type: integer description: Total number of matching files found estimate_batch_count: type: integer description: Estimated number of batches for the dump estimate_batch_size: type: integer description: Estimated total size in bytes dump_cost_usd: type: number description: Estimated total cost to create a dump cost_breakdown: type: object description: Breakdown of costs between cache and archive pages properties: archive_pages_count: type: integer archive_pages_cost: type: number cache_pages_count: type: integer cache_pages_cost: type: number estimate_dump_duration_sec: type: integer description: Estimated time to complete the dump in seconds duration: type: string description: How long the search took to complete error: type: string description: Error message (only present when status is `failed`) example: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: done filters: domain_whitelist: - example.com - www.example.com max_age: 1d min_date: '2026-02-05T10:00:00.000Z' files_count: 12341294 estimate_batch_count: 130 estimate_batch_size: 1073679195 dump_cost_usd: 2468.26 cost_breakdown: archive_pages_count: 0 archive_pages_cost: 0 cache_pages_count: 12341294 cache_pages_cost: 2468.26 estimate_dump_duration_sec: 13000 duration: 4s210ms - title: Pending type: object properties: search_id: type: string description: Unique identifier for the search example: ucd_abc123xyz status: type: string description: 'Current status: `in_progress`, `done`, or `failed`' enum: - in_progress example: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: in_progress - title: Failed type: object properties: search_id: type: string description: Unique identifier for the search example: ucd_abc123xyz status: type: string description: 'Current status: `in_progress`, `done`, or `failed`' enum: - failed error: type: string description: Error message explaining the failure example: Path regex filter caused non-retryable error example: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: failed error: Path regex filter caused non-retryable error examples: Pending: summary: Search is still running value: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: in_progress Success: summary: Search completed successfully value: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: done filters: max_age: 1d domain_whitelist: - example.com min_date: '2026-02-05T11:00:00.000Z' files_count: 2885 estimate_batch_count: 1 estimate_batch_size: 1132300 dump_cost_usd: 0.58 cost_breakdown: archive_pages_count: 0 archive_pages_cost: 0 cache_pages_count: 2885 cache_pages_cost: 0.58 estimate_dump_duration_sec: 38 duration: 2s425ms Failed: summary: Search failed value: search_id: ucd_abc123xyz status: failed error: Path regex filter caused non-retryable error '401': description: Unauthorized content: application/json: example: Unauthorized '404': description: Search ID not found content: application/json: example: Search ID not found '500': description: Internal server error content: application/json: example: Internal server error components: securitySchemes: bearerAuth: type: http scheme: bearer description: >- Use your Bright Data API Key as a Bearer token in the Authorization header. **How to authenticate:** 1.
