Walmart specific
Don't worry when you get a little bit different products than you saw on the browser page. Walmart is ordering products differently for each user.
Need to find product pairs between Walmart and another online shop?
Use the AI Product Matcher馃敆. 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 can match thousands of product pairs.

The input of this scraper should be JSON containing the list of pages on Walmart that should be visited. Possible fields are:
-
search
: (Optional) (String) Keyword that can be searched in Walmart search engine. -

: (Optional) (Number) The US postal code used to set the location. This field will be depreciated soon. Please usezipCode
. -
zipCode
: (Optional) (Number) The US postal code used to set the location. -
startUrls
: (Optional) (Array) List of Walmart URLs. You should only provide category detail, product detail, or search URLs. -
endPage
: (Optional) (Number) Final number of page that you want to scrape. The default isInfinite
. This applies to allsearch
requests andstartUrls
individually. -
maxItems
: (Optional) (Number) You can limit scraped items. This should be useful when you search through the big lists or search results. -
includeReviews
: (Optional) (Boolean) This option allows you to include all product reviews in the scraped data. -
onlyReviews
: (Optional) (Boolean) Discards the product data and only retrieves the reviews whenincludeReviews
is true. -
proxy
: (Required) (Proxy Object) Proxy configuration. -
extendOutputFunction
: (Optional) (String) Function that takes a JQuery handle ($) as an argument and returns an object with data. -
outputFilterFunction
: (Optional) (String) Function that takes an output item as an argument and returns the mapped data.
This solution requires the use of Proxy servers, either your own proxy servers or you can use Apify Proxy.
Tip
Please keep in mind that for the sake of not losing any of the data, the actor returns all the possible output. That's it's suggested to use outputFilterFunction
all the time.
When you want to have filtering over a category URL; go to Walmart, create filters over the category, and copy and paste the link as one of the startUrl.
If you would like to scrape only the first page of a search list or category list, then put the link for the page and have the endPage
as 1.
With the last approach that is explained above you can also fetch any interval of pages. If you provide the 5th page of a category and define the endPage
parameter as 6 then you'll have the 5th and 6th pages only.
Output Filter Function
This function is used for mapping the output data that the actor scrapes from the target. It has the following implementation:
data = eval(outputFilterFunction)(data);
So you can use this function to retrieve only the attributes you'd like to have. The following example is for retrieving only id
and name
attributes:
1(object) => ({ 2 id: object.id, 3 name: object.name 4})
Compute Unit Consumption
The actor is optimized to run blazing fast and scrape many products as possible. Therefore, it forefronts all product detail requests. If the actor doesn't block very often it'll scrape 50 products in 2 minutes with ~0.3-0.5 compute units.
Walmart Scraper Input example
1{ 2 "startUrls": [ 3 { 4 "url": "https://www.walmart.com/browse/auto-tires/brake-pads/91083_1074765_9038935_4582920" 5 }, 6 { 7 "url": "https://www.walmart.com/browse/home/" 8 }, 9 { 10 "url": "https://www.walmart.com/search?grid=true&query=Mixed+Bouquets" 11 }, 12 { 13 "url": "https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-Blue-Sunflower-Mix-Bouquet/155345382" 14 } 15 ], 16 "search": "apples", 17 "endPage": 6, 18 "maxItems": 100, 19 "postalCode": 10100, 20 "includeReviews": true, 21 "onlyReviews": false, 22 "outputFilterFunction": "(object) => ({...object})" 23}
During the Run
During the run, the actor will output messages letting you know what is going on. Each message always contains a short label specifying which page from the provided list is currently specified.
When items are loaded from the page, you should see a message about this event with a loaded item count and total item count for each page.
If you provide incorrect input to the actor, it will immediately stop with a failure state and output an explanation of what is wrong.
Walmart Export
During the run, the actor stores results into a dataset. Each item is a separate item in the dataset.
You can manage the results in any language (Python, PHP, Node JS/NPM). See the FAQ or our API reference to learn more about getting results from this Walmart actor.
