📚 Full Documentation & Advanced Guide: https://henrique-coder.github.io/perplexity-webui-scraper/
What is this?
This library allows you to interact with Perplexity programmatically, start conversations, upload files, and stream responses back, all using the same web interface endpoints used by the browser, but powered by Python.
- Requirements: A Perplexity Pro or Max account, and your browser's Session Token.
- Key Features: Full latest model support (GPT-5.4, Opus 4.6, Deep Research), file attachments, asynchronous streaming, and an out-of-the-box MCP Server for AI agents.
Quick Start
1. Install
# Minimal installation (core library only)
uv add perplexity-webui-scraper
# With interactive session token fetcher (`rich` dependency)
uv add perplexity-webui-scraper[cli]
# With MCP Server support (`fastmcp` dependency)
uv add perplexity-webui-scraper[mcp]
2. Basic Example
from perplexity_webui_scraper import Perplexity
client = Perplexity(session_token="YOUR_TOKEN")
