Meesho Full Catalog / Bulk Exporter

Export massive quantities of Meesho product data in a single run — entire categories, deep search results, or all popular categories at once. Powered by Meesho's reverse-engineered internal Android API for maximum speed without a browser.

Features

• Search mode — deep-paginate any keyword up to 100 pages
• Category mode — scrape an entire category by ID
• Popular categories mode — automatically fetch all top Meesho categories and scrape each one sequentially
• Deduplication — catalog IDs are tracked globally; no duplicates across sources
• Hard item cap — max_total_items stops the run at your chosen limit regardless of pages remaining
• Optional reviews — per-product reviews can be added to the output
• Progress logging — every page and source is logged in the Apify console

Technical Notes

• Uses the Meesho Android API (prod.meeshoapi.com).
• TLS fingerprint spoofed via curl_cffi (Chrome 120 profile) to bypass Akamai Bot Manager.
• No Apify Proxy is used; all connections are direct by default.
• Catalog IDs are deduplicated in-memory across all pages and categories.
