Shopify Products Scraper

Scrape every product from any Shopify store — prices, variants, images, options, vendor, tags, and inventory availability — without login, cookies, or an API key. Point it at a store domain, a collection, or individual product URLs and get clean, structured JSON in seconds.

This actor reads each store's public products.json endpoint (the same data the storefront uses), so it is fast, HTTP‑only, and extremely reliable — no browser, no anti‑bot fight, no breakage when a theme changes.

What you can do with it

• Export a competitor's full catalog with prices and variants for pricing intelligence.
• Pull a single collection/category to monitor a product line.
• Enrich a shortlist of specific product URLs with full detail.
• Batch many stores in one run for market research or dropshipping product discovery.
• Feed an AI agent (Claude, ChatGPT, MCP clients) structured product data on demand.

When to use it (and when not)

Use this actor for	Use a different actor for
Any Shopify storefront's product catalog	Non‑Shopify stores (Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Etsy)
Prices, variants, SKUs, images, options	Order, customer, or checkout data (not public)
Bulk multi‑store product exports	Shopify App Store listings or store‑lead discovery

Most stores built on Shopify expose products.json. A small number disable it or sit behind a password page — those are reported clearly and skipped, never billed as products.

Input

Field	Type	Description
storeUrls	array	Store domains/URLs → scrape the entire catalog (e.g. gymshark.com). Add many to batch.
collectionUrls	array	Collection URLs → scrape only that category (e.g. .../collections/leggings).
productUrls	array	Individual product URLs → one detailed record each.
maxProducts	integer	Total product cap across the run (default 1000). Billing stops here.
includeVariants	boolean	Include the per‑variant breakdown (default true).
includeImages	boolean	Include the full image URL list (default true).
proxyConfiguration	object	Apify proxy (default: Apify Proxy auto).

Provide at least one of storeUrls, collectionUrls, or productUrls.

Pricing — Pay Per Event

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.001 per run
Product scraped	$0.002 per product

A 1,000‑product export costs about $2.00. You are charged per product returned, never per page or per variant, and billing stops at maxProducts. Blocked or empty stores are not billed as products.

How it works

1. For each store, the actor calls https://<store>/products.json?limit=250&page=N, paginating until the catalog is exhausted or maxProducts is reached.
2. Collection URLs use /collections/<handle>/products.json; product URLs use <product>.json.
3. Store currency is read once per store from /meta.json.
4. Requests retry with exponential backoff on rate limits, and rotate proxy on each attempt.
5. Records are flattened to a stable, agent‑friendly schema and pushed to the dataset.

Reliability

Because it uses Shopify's own public JSON endpoints rather than HTML scraping, output does not break when a store changes its theme. Stores that disable products.json or are password‑protected are detected and reported; a run that finds zero products across all targets fails honestly with a clear message instead of returning an empty dataset silently.

MCP / AI agents

This actor is MCP‑ready. Expose it through the Apify MCP server as khadinakbar/shopify-products-scraper and call it with a single store URL to get structured product JSON back. Input descriptions are written for an LLM to route correctly between the three modes.

FAQ

Does it need a Shopify API key or login? No. It uses only public endpoints.

Can it scrape any store? Any standard Shopify storefront. A minority disable products.json or use a password page; those are skipped with a clear note.

Does it get inventory quantities? It returns per‑variant in‑stock availability (available). Exact stock counts are not exposed on the public endpoint.

How fresh is the data? Live at scrape time — the same data the store's own theme renders.
