Poshmark Scraper

Overview

The Poshmark Scraper is a production-grade Apify actor designed to extract product listings from poshmark.com & poshmark.ca.

This actor is built for stability, scalability, and ease of use, providing clean, structured output suitable for analytics, monitoring, research, and downstream automation.

It supports category search, sorting, pagination, and rate-limit handling.

Key Features

• Category search – target specific product types or collections.

• Sorting & filtering – retrieve listings by price, recency, likes, or relevance.

• Pagination & rate-limit handling – ensures efficient data extraction without interruptions.

• Flexible output – store both raw API responses and cleaned, simplified data for multiple use cases.

Whether you’re a data scientist, product manager, or growth analyst, this actor provides actionable insights from Poshmark with minimal setup.

How It Works

1. The actor initializes and validates input parameters.
2. Results are paginated automatically until the requested limit (maxItems) is reached.
3. Each item is simplified into a clean, user-friendly structure while optionally storing raw API data.
4. Cleaned data is stored in the default Apify dataset for immediate access or downstream processing, and raw data is stored separately in the raw-data dataset.
