## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

**AliExpress Products Scraper** turns any AliExpress search into a table: **title, sale price, original price, discount, star rating, exact number of orders, ships-from country, delivery estimate, Choice badge, image and product URL** — one row per product, in the currency you choose. Type keywords or paste search URLs, sort by orders or price, set a price range, and walk as many pages as you need.

**$0.001 per product** — a thousand products for a dollar. No start fee, no login, no browser. Sponsored placements are skipped and never charged; failed pages are free.

### What is AliExpress Products Scraper?

A product-research tool for dropshippers, price-comparison sites, market analysts and AI agents. AliExpress renders its search results as data inside the page; this Actor reads that data directly, so a search of 600 products takes seconds and costs 60 cents. It runs from the Apify console, the API, a spreadsheet, n8n, Make or an AI agent.

Typical uses: finding winning products by order count, tracking competitor prices in EUR or GBP, building a supplier shortlist by ships-from country, and monitoring a niche daily on a schedule.

### What is in every row

| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| `title`, `url`, `imageUrl`, `productId` | The listing |
| `salePrice`, `originalPrice`, `discountPercent`, `currency`, `formattedPrice` | Prices in the currency you asked for, as AliExpress shows them to a shopper in your ship-to country |
| `rating`, `orders`, `ordersText` | Star rating and orders — exact (`71497`) where AliExpress carries the number, otherwise the badge text (`10,000+ sold`) |
| `shipFrom`, `shipTo`, `deliveryNote`, `tags` | Ships-from country, the delivery estimate badge and the other selling-point badges |
| `isChoice`, `isAd`, `listedAt`, `categoryIds`, `skuId` | Choice programme, sponsored flag, listing date, category path |
| `query`, `page`, `position` | Which search, which page, which slot — for ranking studies |

### How much does it cost?

**$0.001 per product** — one row, one charge, no start fee.

- Sponsored products: skipped and **$0** (turn **Include sponsored products** on to keep them).
- Pages that fail or come back empty: **$0**.
- Any currency, any sort, any price range: included.

#### Bulk export: what 50,000 rows actually cost

This Actor is built for bulk jobs — hundreds of keywords in one run, or a schedule that re-reads a niche
every morning. There is **no fee per run, no fee per page and no proxy charge**: you pay for the product
rows you keep. That is what decides the bill once you map a whole category rather than one search.

| Job | This Actor | Most-used Actor in this category |
|---|---|---|
| 50,000 rows across 100 runs | **$50** | $100 + start fees |

Checked on the Apify Store on 23 September 2026 against the Actor with the most monthly users in
this category ($0.002 per row plus a fee per run). Some Actors here ask less per row — this table
compares against the one buyers actually use most.

### How to use it in three steps

1. Type keywords into **🔍 Search keywords**, one per line — or paste AliExpress search URLs into **🔗 AliExpress search URLs**.
2. Pick **Sort** (most orders is the dropshipper's default), a **price range** and your **currency**. Set **Products per search** to how deep you want to go.
3. Press **Start**, then download JSON, CSV or Excel — or call the run from the API, n8n, Make, Zapier or an AI agent.

### Use cases

#### Winning-product research

Sort by orders, cap the price, and read the top 300 for a niche with exact order counts and ratings. Repeat weekly and diff.

#### Price monitoring in your market

Same keywords, your currency, on a schedule — chart the median price and the deepest discounts.

#### Supplier shortlists

Filter rows by `shipFrom` to find local-warehouse sellers with fast delivery notes.

#### AI agents

Connect through the Apify MCP server and ask *"cheapest well-rated yoga mats on AliExpress under €15"* — the agent gets rows, not screenshots.

### Integrations

Every run is available through the Apify API, and the Actor works out of the box with n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, LangChain and the Apify MCP server. Schedule it, webhook it, or export straight to CSV.

### FAQ

**Does it open product pages?** No — everything comes from the search results, which is what keeps it at $0.001. Variants, full descriptions and reviews are not included.

**Why do some rows have no rating or orders?** For a few ship-to countries AliExpress sometimes serves a lean result card without them. The Actor asks again and, if the lean card persists, delivers the row with those fields empty. Ship-to **US** gives the fullest cards on every page.

**How deep can one search go?** AliExpress shows 60 products per page and stops paging at some point for every search (usually after several thousand results). Split by price range to go deeper.

**Do I need a proxy?** Usually not. Search pages answer direct requests; a challenged request is retried through a proxy automatically.

**Is this legal?** The Actor reads public search pages, the same thing a browser shows without logging in. Use the data in line with the site's terms and your local law.

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

One search per line — <b>wireless earbuds</b>, <b>yoga mat</b>. Each search returns up to 'Products per search' rows.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Paste search or category URLs from the site instead of keywords — filters in the URL are kept.

## `maxItemsPerQuery` (type: `integer`):

AliExpress shows 60 per page; the Actor walks the pages until it has this many. Duplicates are skipped.

## `sortBy` (type: `string`):

Applied to keyword searches (URLs keep their own sort).

## `minPrice` (type: `number`):

In the chosen currency. Leave empty for no floor.

## `maxPrice` (type: `number`):

In the chosen currency. Leave empty for no ceiling.

## `currency` (type: `string`):

Prices are returned in this currency — USD, EUR, GBP, IDR, BRL, …

## `shipTo` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country code. US gives the fullest product cards (rating and orders on every row); some other regions occasionally serve lean cards without them.

## `includeAds` (type: `boolean`):

Sponsored placements are skipped by default and never charged. Turn on to keep them (rows carry isAd = true).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Off by default — search pages answer a direct request. A challenged request is retried through a proxy automatically.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
