Amazon Search Scraper

Amazon Search Scraper creates a structured dataset of product records collected from Amazon search result pages. Each dataset item can include the ASIN, title, product URL, price and list price, average rating, review count, image URL, sponsored flag, delivery text, and result position. Query the source with searchQuery and a marketplace domain, control the volume with maxPages and maxProducts, and retrieve records through the Apify Dataset API or export them as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or another supported format.

Coverage and available records

The Actor runs an Amazon keyword search on a selected marketplace and collects the products returned on the search results pages. Supported behavior:

• Keyword search — searchQuery is the required search term.
• Marketplace selection — domain accepts any Amazon hostname (e.g. amazon.co.uk, amazon.in, amazon.fr), including a full www. or https URL.
• Pagination — maxPages caps the number of search result pages scraped.
• Result limit — maxProducts caps total products (0 = unlimited).
• Rate control — pageDelayMs sets the delay between page requests.

Not currently collected: product detail pages, description body, bullet points, reviews, sellers list, and buy-box offers. The Actor records what the search results page displays.

Retrieve the data through the API

1. Start the Actor with a JSON input (see above).
2. Wait for the run to finish.
3. Retrieve items from the run's default dataset.
4. Paginate or export the dataset.

Python example:

import json
import urllib.request

API_TOKEN = "<your Apify API token>"
ACTOR_ID = "datascrapers/amazon-scraper"

payload = {
    "searchQuery": "kitchen",
    "domain": "amazon.de",
    "maxPages": 1,
}

req = urllib.request.Request(
    f"https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/{ACTOR_ID}/runs?token={API_TOKEN}",
    data=json.dumps(payload).encode(),
    headers={"Content-Type": "application/json"},
)
with urllib.request.urlopen(req) as resp:
    run = json.loads(resp.read())["data"]

dataset_id = run["defaultDatasetId"]
with urllib.request.urlopen(
    f"https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/{dataset_id}/items?token={API_TOKEN}"
) as resp:
    items = json.loads(resp.read())

For other languages, use the generated API tab on the Actor's page.

Data quality and record handling

• Nullable fields — rating, listPrice, and delivery are often absent; treat them as nullable.
• Raw price text — price is reported exactly as Amazon displays it, including currency symbol and thousand separators; parse it in your pipeline if you need numeric values.
• Deduplication — asin is the stable, recommended unique key; url also uniquely identifies a product.
• Retries and errors — page requests are retried; a page that fails to load returns the products that were successfully parsed.
• Position tracking — position and page record where the product appeared, useful for ranking analysis.

The Actor reflects search results at run time and does not provide historical price history.

Export and pipeline examples

Destination	Recommended method	Typical use
PostgreSQL/Supabase	Dataset API or webhook consumer	Product catalog keyed by asin
Google Sheets	Apify integration	Review a small search result set
S3/cloud storage	Scheduled export or integration	Price-monitoring snapshots
BI tools	CSV/JSON export	Ranking and review-count analysis

Pricing and cost examples

The Actor uses pay-per-event billing. One charge event applies:

• apify-default-dataset-item — $1.50 per 1,000 products returned.

Records	Estimated base cost
1,000 products	$1.50
10,000 products	$15.00
100,000 products	$150.00

Estimates assume the free-tier rate and no proxy markup; actual cost depends on your Apify plan and selected options.

Limitations and responsible data use

• The Actor collects publicly accessible search-result data only; it does not bypass login or paywalls.
• Results depend on Amazon's current page structure; site changes can require Actor updates.
• Some fields are conditional or nullable (see Data dictionary).
• The Actor does not retain historical snapshots unless you store them yourself.
• You are responsible for complying with Amazon's terms of service and applicable privacy and contractual obligations.

Dataset questions

What does one dataset item represent?

One product returned by an Amazon search on a single marketplace.

Which field should I use as a unique identifier?

asin. url is also unique per product.

Are fields nullable or conditional?

Yes. rating, listPrice, and delivery are frequently absent for some products.

Can I retrieve the records as CSV or JSON?

Yes. The default dataset supports JSON, CSV, Excel, and XML exports, and the Dataset API returns JSON.

How do I paginate large datasets?

Set maxPages and maxProducts to bound the run, or paginate the default dataset via the Dataset API.

What counts as a billable result?

Each product returned to the dataset counts as one apify-default-dataset-item event.
