🧾 What This Zepto Scraper Does

You provide:

• One or more delivery locations (just like users selecting locations in the Zepto app)
• One or multiple search keywords
• The desired number of products per search

The scraper:

1. (Optional) Resolves each location on Zepto to obtain delivery metadata and ETA (only if enabled).
2. Locks the delivery location for that session (just like a real user).
3. Runs searches for every keyword at each location.
4. Extracts location-based prices, availability, product details, and delivery ETA.

🧠 Delivery ETA, if enabled, is resolved once per location and reused across all products for that location.
Because Zepto must first determine which stores serve the location, this step happens at the start of the run and may take a few seconds.

📦 What Data You Can Extract

Each product result includes:

• 🏷 Product Info: Name, brand, SKU, description, variant, UOM, pack size

• 💸 Pricing: MRP, selling price, discount %, membership price, offer text

• 📂 Categorization: Main category, subcategory, store product ID

• 🏬 Store + Stock: Store IDs, deliverability, out-of-stock flag, quantity limits

• ⭐ Ratings: Average rating, review count

• 🖼 Images: Source links with variants

• 🚚 Delivery ETA: Minutes to deliver and store-level ETA breakdown

• 🧠 Metadata: Ranking parameters, product flags, promotion types, sponsored indicators

• ⏱️ Timestamp: Exact scrape time

Metadata fields are stored as-is. If you don’t need them, ignore them — if you work with rankings or algorithm insights, they may be valuable

---

🎯 Common Use Cases

• Location-based price monitoring across cities or delivery zones
• Quick-commerce assortment comparison between different locations
• FMCG availability tracking to detect stock differences by area
• Delivery ETA comparison across cities and neighborhoods (when ETA is enabled)
• Competitive retail intelligence for brands and marketplaces
• Feeding multi-location product data into analytics dashboards or automated data pipelines

---

⚡ Quick Start

1. Enter one or more search keywords
2. Provide Zepto delivery locations to simulate real users
3. Set the number of products to collect per search
4. (Optional) Enable ETA collection by setting includeEtaDetails: true
   • Default is false (faster runs)
5. Run the scraper to extract location-based product data

---

⬇️ Input Format

Simply enter:

• Search terms (keywords used to find products)
• Delivery locations (used to resolve pricing, stock availability, and delivery ETA)
• Number of products to collect per search term
• Include ETA Details (optional)
  Set includeEtaDetails: true to collect delivery ETA and store metadata.

⚙️ ETA is resolved once per location (not per product)

💰 Cost impact:

• ~$0.0005 per location (very small overhead)
• Does NOT scale with number of products

👉 Even with 1000 locations, ETA adds only ~$0.5 in total 👉 For typical runs, the additional cost per result is negligible

---

Example:

{
    "includeEtaDetails": false,
    "locations": [
        "Hitech City, Hyderabad"
    ],
    "productsLimit": 40,
    "searchQueries": [
        "chocolate"
    ]
}

⚠️ Limits & Notes

• Location determines product availability and pricing. Different city, different results.

• If proxies are used, Zepto may occasionally throttle, built-in retries handle this automatically.

• If you’re on a free Apify plan, the scraper auto-limits search terms and product count.

---

⚙️ Troubleshooting & Tips

🧪 Situation	What It Means	How to Fix
❌ No ETA found	The selected address isn't serviceable	Try another nearby address or PIN code
⏳ Slow first request	ETA is enabled — the scraper is resolving delivery location and fetching store data
⚠️ Few product results	Zepto returned limited matches for the search keyword	Try a broader query (e.g., "biscuits" instead of "oreo")
🔁 Retrying session	The current session was blocked, rate-limited, or expired	Automatically handled via proxy rotation and retries

❓ FAQ

Can I scrape Zepto product data for multiple locations?

Yes.
You can provide multiple delivery locations in the input. The zepto scraper will collect Zepto search results for each location, allowing you to compare product pricing, availability, and delivery ETA across different cities or neighborhoods.

Does enabling ETA increase cost?

Yes, but only minimally.

ETA requires additional API calls, but this happens once per location, not per product.

💰 Cost behavior:

• ~$0.0005 per location
• Example: 1000 locations ≈ ~$0.5 additional cost

👉 If you're collecting many products per location, the extra cost per result becomes almost negligible

ETA is designed as a low-cost add-on for delivery intelligence.

Can I run multiple search queries in the same run?

Yes.
You can provide multiple search keywords in the input configuration. The scraper will execute each query and collect product listings up to the specified limit for every location.

What format is the scraped data returned in?

All results are stored as a dataset in Apify.
The data can be exported in JSON, CSV, Excel, or accessed programmatically via the Apify API, making it easy to integrate into dashboards, analytics tools, or data pipelines.

Is scraping Zepto data legal?

This tool collects publicly accessible product listings from Zepto search results and does not access private user data.
However, users are responsible for ensuring their usage complies with Zepto's terms of service and applicable laws in their jurisdiction.
