Amazon Product Search Scraper

🤖 What does Amazon Product Search Scraper do?

Amazon Product Search Scraper extracts product listings from Amazon search result pages. Provide a full Amazon search URL (e.g., https://www.amazon.com/s?k=...), set how many pagination pages to crawl, and get a clean dataset of products with IDs, names, prices, images, and product URLs.

It's great for:

• Market research & pricing – Track prices and availability across queries and locales.
• Lead lists for e-commerce – Build shortlists of items to compare or resell.
• Trend monitoring – Check what shows up first for key search terms over time.

🚀 How to use

1. Configure input

   • Paste an Amazon search URL (supports most locales, e.g., .com, .co.uk, .de, .es).
   • Choose how many pages to scrape (minimum 1).
   • Enable Apify Proxy (Residential recommended) for reliability.

2. Run the scraper

   • Click Run and let the actor process pages sequentially.

3. Get your data

   • Open the Dataset tab to preview or export results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via API.
