## What's an Apify Actor?

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.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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

## Etsy Search Scraper

**Extract product listings from any Etsy search — with prices, ratings, sale flags, and seller data — in minutes, no coding required.**

Just paste an Etsy search URL. Get a clean dataset. Export to CSV, JSON, or connect to your workflow.

---

### Who is this for?

**E-commerce sellers & brand managers** — Monitor competitor pricing, spot trending products, and benchmark your listings against the market before launching.

**Market researchers & analysts** — Track pricing shifts, category trends, and seller saturation across thousands of Etsy listings at scale.

**Dropshippers & product sourcers** — Find high-rated, low-competition products with sale pricing and review data in one sweep.

**Agencies & freelancers** — Deliver Etsy market reports to clients without manual copy-paste or expensive data subscriptions.

---

### What you get

Every listing returned includes:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `title` | Product name |
| `price` | Current sale price |
| `original_price` | Pre-discount price (when on sale) |
| `discount_pct` | Discount percentage (e.g. "33% off") |
| `currency` | Currency code |
| `free_shipping` | Whether free shipping is offered |
| `rating` | Star rating (0–5) |
| `review_count` | Number of reviews |
| `shop_name` | Seller shop name |
| `shop_url` | Link to the seller's shop |
| `is_ad` | Whether the listing is a paid ad |
| `is_sale` | Whether the listing is on sale |
| `url` | Direct link to the product page |
| `image_url` | Product thumbnail image |
| `listing_id` | Etsy listing ID |
| `shop_id` | Etsy shop ID |
| `search_url` | The search URL this result came from |

**Sample output:**

```json
{
  "listing_id": "1234567890",
  "title": "Personalized Wedding Gift Box for Couple",
  "price": "34.99",
  "original_price": "52.00",
  "discount_pct": "33% off",
  "currency": "USD",
  "free_shipping": true,
  "rating": 4.9,
  "review_count": 2847,
  "shop_name": "WoodlandGiftCo",
  "is_ad": false,
  "is_sale": true,
  "url": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1234567890/...",
  "search_url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift&order=most_relevant"
}
````

***

### Getting started

#### 1. Set your search

Go to Etsy, **type a keyword in the search box**, apply your filters (category, price range, sort order — anything), then copy the full URL from your browser address bar.

> **Important:** The URL must include a search keyword (the `q=` part). Browse-only or category URLs without a search term will not work. For example:
>
> - ✅ `https://www.etsy.com/search?q=frog+mug&order=highest_reviews`
> - ❌ `https://www.etsy.com/search?order=highest_reviews` (missing keyword)
> - ❌ `frog mug` (paste the URL, not the keyword itself)

#### 2. Run the scraper

Paste the URL into the **Search List** input. Set how many results you want (10–1,000 per URL). Click Start.

#### 3. Export your data

Download as CSV, Excel, or JSON — or connect directly to Google Sheets, Zapier, or your own pipeline via the Apify API.

***

### Input

#### Search List (`searches`)

Paste one or more Etsy search URLs. Every filter you set in the browser — category, price range, sort order — is captured in the URL and respected by the scraper.

**Plain URL (simplest):**

```
https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift
https://www.etsy.com/search/home-and-living?q=candle&min=10&max=50&order=price_asc
```

**With per-URL result limit:**

```json
[
  { "url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift", "maxResults": 200 },
  { "url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=candle&min=10", "maxResults": 50 }
]
```

Both formats can be mixed in the same list.

#### Parameters

| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `searches` | required | List of Etsy search URLs |
| `maxResults` | `100` | Max results per URL (10–1,000) |
| `maxSearchPages` | `10` | Max pages per URL (~48 results/page) |

***

### For developers

#### JavaScript / Node.js

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_API_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('YOUR_ACTOR_ID').call({
  searches: [
    { url: 'https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift&order=most_relevant', maxResults: 200 },
    { url: 'https://www.etsy.com/search?q=candle&min=10&max=50', maxResults: 100 },
  ],
  maxResults: 100,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);
```

#### Python

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_API_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("YOUR_ACTOR_ID").call(run_input={
    "searches": [
        { "url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift", "maxResults": 200 },
    ],
    "maxResults": 100,
})

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

#### CLI

```bash
apify call YOUR_ACTOR_ID -i '{
  "searches": ["https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift"],
  "maxResults": 100
}'
```

***

### Use cases

- **Price monitoring** — Track competitor prices across a category weekly and alert when they drop below your threshold
- **Product research** — Find best-selling items by rating + review count before launching a new product line
- **Trend detection** — Identify which products have sale flags or ad placements in your niche
- **Market reports** — Aggregate listings across multiple keywords to build category-level intelligence for clients
- **Inventory scouting** — Find high-margin wholesale opportunities by filtering for price ranges and seller ratings

***

### FAQ

**Does this require an Etsy account or API key?**
No. Just paste the search URL and run.

**What counts as a valid URL?**
A full Etsy search URL that includes a keyword — the `q=` parameter. Go to etsy.com, type your search term, apply any filters, then copy the URL from the address bar. Do not paste a keyword like `frog mug` directly — it must be a URL.

**How many results can I get per search?**
Up to 1,000 results per URL (~48 per page, up to 10 pages by default).

**Can I apply filters like price range, category, or sort order?**
Yes — all Etsy search filters are URL-based. Set them in your browser, copy the URL, paste it in. The scraper respects all filters.

**Can I scrape multiple searches at once?**
Yes. Add multiple URLs to the Search List — each runs independently with its own result limit.

**What happens if a listing is an ad?**
It's still collected, and the `is_ad` field is set to `true` so you can filter it out downstream.

# Actor input Schema

## `searches` (type: `array`):

Etsy search URLs to scrape. Accepts two formats — you can mix them freely:

① URL strings (one per line):
https://www.etsy.com/search?q=wedding+gift
https://www.etsy.com/search/home-and-living?q=candle\&min=10\&max=50

② JSON objects with per-URL maxResults:
\[
{ "url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=gift", "maxResults": 50 },
{ "url": "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=candle\&min=10", "maxResults": 20 }
]

Go to Etsy, apply all the filters you want (category, price range, etc.), then copy the URL from your browser's address bar and paste it here.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of listings to collect per URL (min 10, max 1000). Used as default for searches entries that don't specify their own maxResults.

## `maxSearchPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of search result pages to fetch per URL (default 10, ~48 items per page)

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searches": [
    "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=personalized+gift&mosv=sese&moci=1476057341652&mosi=1480999758015&is_merch_library=true&instant_download=false&order=price_asc"
  ],
  "maxResults": 40,
  "maxSearchPages": 10
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `api` (type: `string`):

REST API endpoint to download the dataset programmatically.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "searches": [
        "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=personalized+gift&mosv=sese&moci=1476057341652&mosi=1480999758015&is_merch_library=true&instant_download=false&order=price_asc"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("crw/etsy-search-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});
