Lowyat Scraper – Malaysia's Biggest Forum, Threads & Replies
Pricing
from $2.00 / 1,000 topic listings
Scrape Lowyat.NET, Malaysia's biggest forum, without an API: browse a section's latest topics with a title-keyword filter, or pull a topic's full first post and every reply. snake_case JSON/CSV/Excel export for Malaysia social listening, brand monitoring and market research.
What to scrape? Pick one mode and fill in the matching field below.
Lowyat section slug (the path in the URL, e.g. "Kopitiam" from forum.lowyat.net/Kopitiam) or a numeric section id passed as "forum/{id}". Examples: Kopitiam, Announcements, Celebrities. Used by forum-section mode.
Lowyat topic ids (the number in forum.lowyat.net/topic/{id}), e.g. 4718961. Used by full-topic mode.
Full Lowyat topic URLs, e.g. https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4718961/. The topic id is extracted automatically.
One per line (press Enter between items, no quotes or commas). Treated as section slugs/ids or topic ids/URLs depending on the current mode, and merged into the matching field at run time. Pasting a whole column from Google Sheets / Excel is the fastest way in.
(Optional) Forum-section mode: keep only topics whose title contains any of these keywords. Leave empty to keep everything.
Forum-section mode: max topics per section. Full-topic mode: max topics to fetch (replies within a topic are not capped by this). Hard cap 500.
Forum-section mode only; judged by the later of topic-start time and last-reply time. Formats: relative like 3d (last 3 days), 12h, 2w, or absolute MM/DD/YY. Leave empty for no filter. When set it also stops paging early (pinned topics are exempt), saving cost on scheduled monitoring.
Defaults to Apify datacenter proxy: without a proxy you share egress IPs with every other proxy-less run, which gets forum sites to rate-limit you (429, missing pages). HTML responses are small, so proxy traffic cost is negligible. Turn it off only for local testing or bring-your-own proxy.
