Jumia Product Scraper

Collect one structured, source-linked product record for each public Jumia listing or product page. It is designed for catalog analysts, marketplace sellers, and agents that need observed product names, prices, currencies, ratings, sellers, and collection times from Jumia’s supported African markets.

Best fit for this Actor

• Use this Actor when your starting point is a Jumia keyword, category page, or product URL and the next decision depends on an observed price, SKU, rating, or seller field.
• Start with a focused keyword to discover a market slice, then provide the resulting product URLs when you want detail enrichment for selected items.
• For a cross-market comparison, start with the same brand and model on Jumia, then use the Amazon Product Scraper with the matching ASIN, search term, or Amazon URL.

Workflow: from Jumia search to a price comparison

A marketplace analyst starts with a category keyword such as an air fryer, selects a supported market, and collects a bounded set of product records. The dataset pairs price, currency, rating, seller, and scrapedAt with each public Jumia url. The analyst then compares the observed price band and seller mix, or continues with a matching marketplace collection for a cross-market merchandising decision.

Quick start input

{
  "searchQueries": ["air fryer"],
  "country": "ng",
  "maxResults": 25,
  "maxPagesPerQuery": 2,
  "enrichDetails": false
}

Use searchQueries for discovery. Use a Jumia category or product URL when the starting page is already known:

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.jumia.com.ng/phones-tablets/"
  ],
  "maxResults": 25,
  "enrichDetails": true
}

Input reference

Input	What it controls
searchQueries	One or more product phrases for discovery in the selected market.
startUrls	Public Jumia category, listing, or product pages; the market comes from the URL domain.
country	Market for keyword discovery: ng, ke, eg, gh, ma, ci, or sn.
maxResults	The product-event cap for the run. Use a small value to sample a category or price band.
maxPagesPerQuery	Listing pages considered for each discovery input.
enrichDetails	Adds seller, specifications, key features, description, and image-gallery fields from product pages.
proxyConfiguration	A residential, country-pinned proxy configuration for the Jumia market.
proxyProvider	auto uses Apify Residential and can continue through the configured fallback route.

What data you receive

Each dataset item is one public Jumia product observation. url preserves the source page, and scrapedAt is the collection time for that observation; use both fields when comparing datasets collected at different times.

Field	Meaning
name, brand, sku	Product identity as presented by the source page.
price, oldPrice, discountPercent, currency	Current pricing fields in the market’s local currency.
rating, reviewsCount	Listing or detail-page rating context.
seller, sellerScore	Seller information when a product detail page is collected.
categoryPath, breadcrumbs	Product placement in the public Jumia catalog.
imageUrl, images	Main image and optional enriched gallery.
url, scrapedAt	Source provenance and collection time.

Pricing

This Actor uses Pay per event + Apify platform usage. A persisted product is the billable unit, and detail enrichment is an additional event when it is requested. maxResults provides a product-event cap; platform usage covers the associated compute and proxy work. Open the live Pricing tab for the current event details before a larger collection.

Use through the API

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("khadinakbar/jumia-product-scraper").call(run_input={
    "searchQueries": ["air fryer"],
    "country": "ng",
    "maxResults": 25,
})

for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item["name"], item["price"], item["currency"], item["url"])

After collection finishes, read the default key-value store’s OUTPUT record for the compact outcome and RUN_SUMMARY for input coverage, route, cost, warnings, and pagination diagnostics.

Use with AI agents through Apify MCP

Find up to 25 public Jumia Nigeria air-fryer listings. Return name, price, currency, rating, seller, source URL, and collection time. Read the terminal outcome and dataset, preserve provenance, respect the result cap, and report whether the outcome is complete, partial, or empty.

The Actor is read-only. For agent workflows, provide the market and a bounded keyword or public Jumia URL, read the dataset after completion, and retain url with scrapedAt for provenance. The product cap controls billable product events, while the live Pricing tab describes current event costs and platform usage.

Best results

Starting situation	Helpful action	Expected outcome
A product URL is already known	Provide the canonical public Jumia product URL and enable detail enrichment when seller or specification fields support the decision.	A source-linked product record with current collection time.
Discovery starts with a broad category	Start with a specific keyword and a small product cap, then refine the query or category input.	Comparable records for a focused product slice.
A recurring comparison is useful	Schedule the same bounded input at the business cadence and compare price, currency, inStock, and scrapedAt.	Time-separated observations that support price and assortment review.

Builder's note

I designed the output around one product observation per row so a price comparison retains both the local currency and the original Jumia URL. During implementation, the browser route and residential session handling were chosen to keep source collection and dataset readback consistent across the supported country domains.

Responsible use

Collect public or authorized Jumia data, keep source URLs with downstream analysis, and apply the site terms and applicable laws to the workflow and any personal data encountered.
