Amazon Product Scraper

What is Amazon Product Scraper and how does it work?

Amazon Product Scraper is a web scraping tool that enables you to extract product data from Amazon by using Amazon's subcategory URLs or product URLs.

For example, this is an Amazon URL for the Computer Monitors subcategory:

https://www.amazon.com/s?i=specialty-aps&bbn=16225007011&rh=n%3A16225007011%2Cn%3A1292115011

Amazon subcategories typically have /s in the URL after the Amazon domain, so make sure your URL looks something like the example above.

So just add one or more Amazon URLs in the input field and select the maximum number of items you want to scrape. Then download the data from the output schema. You can even get this data via API without having to log in to the Apify platform.

Why scrape Amazon products?

Scraping Amazon products can help you to:

➡️ Monitor the performance of categories and subcategories on Amazon so you can put the performance of your products into context.

➡️ Discover up-and-coming brands and products to benchmark your performance within its category based on views, conversions, and reviews.

➡️ Fine-tune your advertising and messaging.

➡️ Use Amazon data to give you an edge in competitive intelligence.

7 pages Amazon limitation

Amazon sometimes restricts search terms to a maximum of 7 pages, please validate the number of pages in the URL. To overcome this limit, try to use one of the regular categories and combine it with the search terms. E.g. instead of just searching for Diamond rings, find Jewelry or Women's rings category and combine them with the search term.

Is it legal to scrape Amazon?

It is legal to scrape publicly available data such as product descriptions, prices, or ratings. Read our blog post on the legality of web scraping to learn more.

Most importantly, it is relatively easy to get started with (just follow this guide), and it can check thousands of pairs of products.

Input options

When running Amazon Product Scraper, you need to configure what you want to scrape and how it should be extracted. This input is provided either as a JSON file or in the editor on the Apify platform. Most input fields have reasonable default values.

For detailed descriptions and examples for all input fields, please visit the dedicated Input tab.

Please note the following when using Amazon Product Scraper:

• Price information might be missing if the delivery country has no sellers. Setting a specific "apifyProxyCountry" in proxy settings should help with this.
• There could still be differences in pricing depending on the US state.
• Amazon also shows different offers based on your proxy location.
