Results are returned as a structured JSON dataset that can be exported to CSV or Excel.

✨ Features

• Product extraction — title, brand, price, availability, seller, rating, review count, category breadcrumbs and images.
• Pagination support — walks category listing pages automatically until the per-URL item limit is reached.
• Proxy support — Apify proxy configuration with sensible defaults.
• Automatic URL detection — listing and product URLs are told apart automatically, so you can mix both in Start URLs.
• Whole-site mode — one toggle crawls the main category pages instead of a hand-picked list.
• Cross-run caching — an optional project name skips products already scraped in an earlier run.
