🧾 What This Scraper Does

You provide:

• A location (like a user entering it in the Zepto app)

• One or multiple search terms

• And the desired number of products per search

• The scraper sets the delivery location first, waits for ETA availability, and then searches each keyword.

🧠 Delivery ETA is fetched once per run and reused across all products just like a real Zepto session.

---

📦 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

⚠️ 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	The scraper is initiating a fresh session and generating signatures	Expected — this happens only once per run
⚠️ 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
