How to scrape supported list pages

This Actor accepts individual product links in productUrls. It accepts category pages, search result pages, filtered result pages, and seller pages in categoryUrls.

1. Open a supported list page in your browser.
2. Choose a category, run a search, apply the filters, and open a seller page you need.
3. Copy the final URL from the address bar and paste it into categoryUrls.

The Actor follows the products shown on that page.

Features

• Scrapes detailed marketplace product information from Takealot product pages
• Accepts individual product URLs and category pages, search result pages, filtered result pages, and seller pages
• Lets you limit the number of saved products and choose whether to continue through additional result pages
• Returns structured prices and availability, seller details, ratings and reviews, and specifications and full-size images for viewing, export, and analysis

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. Its running costs are included.

• Actor start: $0.02 once per run — One fixed charge for starting a run.
• Result: $0.00089 each ($0.89 per 1,000) — A product record collected directly from a supported list page.
• Product detail: $0.00199 each ($1.99 per 1,000) — A full product record collected from its product page.

The start charge applies once per run. Each saved product is charged either as a Result or a Product detail, never both.

Results in one run	Result	Product detail
100	$0.11	$0.22
1,000	$0.91	$2.01

Apify's Free plan currently includes $5 in monthly usage credits. If the full $5 is available for this Actor, one run covers about 5,595 Results or 2,502 Product details. Other Apify usage reduces the available credit.

Input

The Actor accepts the following input parameters:

Field	Type	Description
productUrls	array	Product URLs to scrape
categoryUrls	array	Supported list pages: category pages, search result pages, filtered result pages, and seller pages
maxResultsPerScrape	integer	Maximum number of product records to save
usePagination	boolean	Whether to continue through additional result pages
scrapeProductDetails	boolean	Enabled returns Product detail records with the product-page fields listed below. Disabled returns Result records with the list-level fields.

What data you get in each mode

Every saved product is stored as one record. scrapeProductDetails decides which mode you receive; the lists below name every field each mode can return. A field is empty when the website does not show that information.

Use Cases

• Monitor marketplace prices and availability
• Compare seller offers and product specifications
• Build South African ecommerce research datasets

Integrate with AI and automation

Use with AI through MCP

Connect your AI assistant to the Apify MCP server. It can discover and run Actors, then access the results in the same conversation. For example, ask your assistant to scrape a list of products from Takealot, compare prices, or summarize the collected data.

Run on a schedule

After one successful run, use Apify Schedules to repeat the same task hourly, daily, weekly, or with a custom cron schedule. Saved tasks are useful when you want to keep the same URLs and settings for every run.

Connect with n8n

Create an n8n account and add the verified Apify node to a workflow. Choose Run an Actor and Get Dataset when the workflow should start this Actor, wait for completion, and receive the product rows for the next node. See the Apify integration for n8n.

Connect with Make

Create a Make account and add the Apify Run an Actor module. Follow it with Get Dataset Items to pass the product rows to Google Sheets, a database, email, or another Make module. For longer runs, use Watch Actor Runs followed by Get Dataset Items.

Read the Make integration guide.
