How to get Internet Archive & Wayback Machine

Search archive.org and the Wayback Machine for OSINT, journalism, and research - books, movies, audio, software, item metadata, file lists, and URL snapshots. archive.org is one page of it. A run reads that public list and saves one row per result.

One row per result

A row has Row kind, Archive identifier, Title, Media type. The columns are listed in the schema on this page.

New rows from that site

Each run reads archive.org again. Put it on a schedule and the next file is the latest rows from that site.

Internet Archive & Wayback Machine in Excel, Sheets, or Power BI

The rows are the same in each of those tools. The guide for the one you already use starts with a free Apify account and finishes with the file.

Schema

Examples come from the actor sample, not a live result.
