Actor - Aliexpress Scraper
Aliexpress scraper
Since Aliexpress doesn't provide an API, this actor should help you to retrieve data from it.
The Aliexpress data scraper supports the following features:
- Scrape product details - you can scrape attributes like images, shipping, and metadata. You can find details below.
- Scrape product descriptions - you can scrape the description HTML of the product.
- Scrape feedback on product detail - you can scrape user's feedback (name, country, original content, translated content)
- Scrape questions of product detail - you can scrape buyer's Q&A of product
- You can set language, currency, and region for shipping
Aliexpress specific
Don't worry when you get a little bit different products than you saw on the browser page. Aliexpress is ordering products differently for each user.
Need to find product pairs between Aliexpress and another online shop?
Use the AI Product Matcher๐. This AI model allows you to compare items from different web stores, identifying exact matches and comparing real-time data obtained via web scraping.
With the AI Product Matcher, you can use scraped product data to monitor product matches across the industry, implement dynamic pricing for your website, replace or complement manual mapping, and obtain realistic estimates against your competition for upcoming promo campaigns. Most importantly, it is relatively easy to get started with (just follow this guide) and is able to match thousands of product pairs.

searchInSubcategories: (Optional) (Boolean) You can turn off searching in subcategories. Default is true. -
includeDescription: (Optional) (Boolean) If you want to fetch description HTML you can enable this option. However, keep in mind that fetching description takes one extra request which makes your actor a bit slower and takes a bit much more resources. -
maxFeedback: (Optional) (Number) Max count of scraped feedback. -
maxQuestions: (Optional) (Number) Max count of scraped buyer Q&A. -
maxItems: (Optional) (Number) You can limit scraped products. This should be useful when you search through all subcategories. The default is 1000 products. -

extendOutputFunction: (Optional) (String) Function that takes a JQuery handle ($) as an argument and returns an object with data.
This solution requires the use of Proxy servers, either your own proxy servers or you can use Apify Proxy.
Tip
When you want to scrape over a specific listing URL, just copy and paste the link as one of the startUrl.
When you add category URL to startUrls set start and end page and let searchInSubcategories parameter on the logic of the start and end page will be propagated to all subcategories so in fact actors scrape much more products than you assume.
Compute Unit Consumption
The actor is optimized to run blazing fast and scrape many listings as possible. Therefore, it forefronts all listing detail requests. If the actor doesn't block very often it'll scrape 100 listings in 2 minutes with ~0.03-0.05 compute units.
