Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ### Jarir جرير Product Scraper - scrape product data from jarir.com Scrapes product data from **Jarir** (`jarir.com`), one of the largest retailers in the Gulf, selling electronics, mobile phones, computers, office and school supplies, arts and crafts, books, toys, musical instruments, and more. Given a category or product page, the scraper collects every product listed and returns structured data for each one — including pricing, stock, brand, images, and category, across all five GCC storefronts. ### Why use this scraper? Jarir carries an unusually broad catalog for a single retailer — everything from smartphones and laptops to office supplies, Arabic books, musical instruments, and toys — with full pricing and stock detail exposed per product. That range, combined with coverage across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait in both Arabic and English, makes it a useful source for: - 💰 Price monitoring and competitor tracking across electronics, office supplies, books, and more. - 🌍 Cross-country price comparison — the same SKU's price, currency, and stock across all five GCC storefronts. - 📦 Catalog and inventory research — brand coverage, stock availability, and category structure for a category or an entire storefront. - 🛍️ Feeding product data into comparison sites, sourcing tools, or market research pipelines. - 🧠 Building datasets of real Arabic and English product listings — names, descriptions, and categories in both languages side by side. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | | -------------------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `startUrls` | array | Jarir category or product page URLs to scrape. | | `maxItems` | number | Maximum number of products to scrape per start URL. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Optional proxy settings. | #### Example input ```json { "maxItems": 5, "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.jarir.com/apple.html" } ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ```` ### Output ```json { "scrapedAt": "2026-07-24 03:31:10", "updatedAt": "2026-07-24 01:55:04", "url": "https://www.jarir.com/apple-iphone-17-pro-max-smartphones-666877.html", "store": "ae-ar", "sku": "666877", "id": 1560377, "itemNumber": "25-MFYK42BG", "mpn": "MFYK42BG", "name": "ابل آيفون 17 برو ماكس، 2 تيرابايت، برتقالي كوزمك الجيل الخامس، آبل آيه 19 برو", "nameEn": "Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max, 2 TB, Cosmic Orange, 5G, Apple A19 Pro", "description": "اشتر ابل آيفون 17 برو ماكس 2 تيرابايت برتقالي كوزمك الجيل الخامس هاتف ذكي من مكتبة جرير لأفضل العروض و الأسعار في الإمارات.", "model": "آيفون 17 برو ماكس", "price": 8499, "finalPrice": 7499, "regularPrice": 8499, "specialPrice": 7499, "priceExTax": 8094.2857, "currency": "AED", "inStock": null, "stockQty": null, "minSaleQty": 1, "maxSaleQty": 10, "brand": "ابل", "brandEn": "Apple", "brandCode": "apple", "image": "https://ak-asset.jarir.com/akeneo-prod/asset/9/a/2/d/9a2d890716f365fa2c2cca732afcc3cd48bfe8d5_666877.jpg", "gallery": [ "https://ak-asset.jarir.com/akeneo-prod/asset/9/a/2/d/9a2d890716f365fa2c2cca732afcc3cd48bfe8d5_666877.jpg", "https://ak-asset.jarir.com/akeneo-prod/asset/3/e/6/3/3e6399051c51b1b4c5a35bb0f41088c237b4b197_666877_1.jpg" ], "categoryIds": [1008, 1010, 1029, 3394, 3395, 3421, 3396, 3397], "categories": [ "الهواتف الذكية", "ابل", "الهواتف الذكية", "الجوالات و الالكترونيات", "الهواتف الذكية", "جميع الهواتف الذكية", "الماركات المختارة", "ابل" ], "color": "برتقالي", "colorEn": "Orange", "productType": "الهواتف الذكية", "isReturnable": true } ``` #### Field reference | Field | Type | Description | | ------------------ | -------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `scrapedAt` | string | Timestamp the record was scraped, `YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS`. | | `updatedAt` | string | null | Timestamp Jarir last updated the product. | | `url` | string | Canonical product page URL. | | `store` | string | Storefront the product was scraped from, e.g. `sa-ar`, `ae-en`. | | `sku` | string | null | Jarir's SKU for this product. | | `id` | number | null | Jarir's internal product id. | | `itemNumber` | string | null | Item/model number as shown on the product page. | | `mpn` | string | null | Manufacturer part number. | | `name` | string | null | Product name in Arabic. | | `nameEn` | string | null | Product name in English. | | `description` | string | null | Product meta description in Arabic. | | `model` | string | null | Model name/line. | | `price` | number | null | Listed price, VAT included. | | `finalPrice` | number | null | Price after any active discount, VAT included. | | `regularPrice` | number | null | Undiscounted price, VAT included. | | `specialPrice` | number | null | Discounted price, when a promotion is active;

The store is detected automatically from the URL (e.g. `/ae-en/` for UAE English), so no separate configuration is needed. **Does the scraper work on any Jarir category?** Yes — provide any category listing URL (electronics, office supplies, Arabic books, arts and crafts, toys, musical instruments, and more) and the scraper paginates through it automatically until `maxItems` is reached. **Can I scrape a specific product directly?** Yes — the scraper accepts product page URLs as well as category pages, and starts from either. **Will filters I've already applied in the URL (price, brand, color) be respected?** Yes — any on-page filters present in the start URL's query string are read and applied to the request, so a filtered category URL returns only the matching products rather than the full category. **Can I track price and stock changes over time?** Yes — by scheduling runs on Apify, you can monitor how a product's price, discount, and stock status change across any of the five storefronts. **Is pricing shown in local currency?** Yes — each record includes a `currency` field matching the store it was scraped from (SAR, AED, QAR, BHD, or KWD), and prices reflect that store's actual listed price rather than a converted value. *** ### 🔗 Want More Ecommerce Data in the Gulf Market? #### If you found this scraper useful, check out our other Gulf ecommerce scrapers: [🥷🏽 Ninja نينجا Product Scraper](https://apify.com/boring_internet_explorer/ninja-product-scraper) — Extract product data from ananinja.com — prices, stock availability, brands, images, product IDs, and category for groceries, pharmacy, beauty, and household products across Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, and Kuwait.
