BAUHAUS Product Scraper

Turn any bauhaus.info search, category, or product link into structured product data. Pull price, brand, rating, availability, EAN, and the full German spec table from BAUHAUS, the German DIY and home-improvement retailer. Start from a keyword like bohrmaschine, a category page, or a direct product URL. Output is clean JSON or CSV, one row per product.

Why Use This Scraper

• ✅ Three ways in: free-text keywords, category or search URLs, or direct product links, mixed in one run
• ✅ Two speeds: Overview mode for fast price and rating pulls, Detail mode for the full spec table, description, EAN, and breadcrumbs
• ✅ German technical specs captured as they appear on the page (e.g. Spannweite Bohrfutter, Gewicht (Netto), Gangzahl), 11 to 21 rows per product
• ✅ EAN / GTIN on every detail row for catalog and PIM matching
• ✅ Sort by relevance, price, or topseller to grab the exact slice you want
• ✅ Bot protection is handled for you: no proxies, no API keys, no browser setup
• ✅ One flat row per product, ready for CSV, spreadsheets, or a database

Overview

The BAUHAUS Product Scraper is built for pricing analysts, category managers, and catalog teams who need structured product data from bauhaus.info, the German DIY and home-improvement retailer.

Every run returns product rows. Whether you start from a keyword, a category page, or a single product URL, the dataset is a flat stream of products, not separate search or category records.

Two modes control how much you get per product:

• Overview (default) reads the fields shown on search and category cards: price, brand, rating, availability, and image. It is the fast, low-cost option for price tracking.
• Detail opens each product page and adds the SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumb path, USP highlights, and the full German specification table.

Some fields are naturally sparse. Products with no reviews return null for rating and reviewCount, unbranded items return an empty brand, and the highlights array is empty on products where BAUHAUS shows no USP badges. Those keys stay present in every row so your columns line up across the whole export.

Supported Inputs

Keyword mode

Type what you would type in the BAUHAUS search bar, one search per line. Every result lands in the same dataset.

{
  "keywords": ["bohrmaschine", "akkuschrauber", "led lampe"]
}

Start URL types

Paste bauhaus.info links directly. The actor detects each one and routes it to the right handler.

Type	Pattern	Example
Category / listing page	/<category>/c/<id>	https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754
Product page	/<category>/<product-name>/p/<id>	https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535

Category and search-result pages are swept page by page, exactly like a keyword. Product pages (.../p/<id>) are fetched directly. You can mix keywords and URLs freely in one run.

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754",
    "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535"
  ]
}

Unsupported inputs

• ❌ Account, cart, or checkout pages behind the BAUHAUS login
• ❌ Country sites other than bauhaus.info (for example bauhaus.at or bauhaus.ch)
• ❌ Hosts outside bauhaus.info

Use Cases

Audience	Use case
Pricing teams	Track BAUHAUS prices over time and react to competitor moves
Category & assortment managers	Compare catalog breadth, brands, and gaps against your own range
Catalog / PIM teams	Enrich product records with EAN/GTIN, specs, and descriptions
Market researchers	Study the German DIY market: brands, price bands, and ratings
Resellers & marketplaces	Build and refresh product feeds from a single source

How It Works

1. Input — add keywords, category or search URLs, and product URLs (any mix).
2. Clear the bot check — each fetch lane opens a session that passes the site's protection, then reuses it for later requests.
3. Collect products — keywords and category/search pages are swept in your chosen sort order until maxItems is reached.
4. Enrich (Detail mode) — each product page is opened for its SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumbs, highlights, and spec table.
5. Output — one product per dataset row, exportable as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or read live through the Apify API.

Input Configuration

Every field below maps one-to-one to the actor's input schema.

Field	Type	Required	Default	Notes
keywords	array<string>	keywords or startUrls	—	Free-text BAUHAUS searches, one per line (e.g. bohrmaschine)
startUrls	array	keywords or startUrls	—	Category, search, or product URLs; mix with keywords
scrapeMode	string enum	optional	overview	overview (fast fields) or detail (specs, description, EAN)
sort	string enum	optional	relevance	relevance, price_low, price_high, topseller
maxItems	integer	optional	100	Cap across all keywords and URLs combined; free runs are capped at 25
maxConcurrency	integer	optional	4	Parallel fetch lanes, 1 to 6. Higher is faster but uses more memory

Common scenarios

1. Fast price pull by keyword

{
  "keywords": ["akkuschrauber"],
  "scrapeMode": "overview",
  "sort": "price_low",
  "maxItems": 200
}

2. Full specs from a category, cheapest first

{
  "startUrls": ["https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/c/10007754"],
  "scrapeMode": "detail",
  "sort": "price_low",
  "maxItems": 100
}

3. Specific products by URL

{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.bauhaus.info/akkuschrauber-akkubohrschrauber/skil-akkuschrauber-2636-ad/p/24816535"
  ],
  "scrapeMode": "detail"
}

Output Overview

Each dataset item is one product. The row shape depends on scrapeMode:

• Overview rows carry the core fields: productId, name, brand, price, currency, availability, rating, reviewCount, image, url, and scrapedAt.
• Detail rows carry everything above plus sku, ean, description, breadcrumbs, highlights, and specifications.

price is a number and currency is EUR, so you can sum and sort without stripping symbols. specifications is an object of German label/value pairs taken straight from the product's spec table, so the keys vary by product category.

FAQ

Which BAUHAUS site does this cover?

The German storefront at bauhaus.info. Other country domains (such as bauhaus.at or bauhaus.ch) are separate sites and are out of scope.

What is the difference between Overview and Detail mode?

Overview reads only the fields on search and category cards (price, brand, rating, availability, image), which makes it fast and cheap. Detail opens each product page as well and adds the SKU, EAN, description, breadcrumbs, highlights, and the full spec table. Use Overview for price tracking and Detail when you need specs or barcodes.

What URLs can I paste into startUrls?

Category and listing pages of the form /<category>/c/<id>, and product pages of the form /<category>/<product-name>/p/<id>. Search-result URLs also work and are swept like a keyword. You can mix URLs and keywords in one run.

Do I need proxies or an API key?

No. The actor clears the site's bot protection on its own. You do not supply any proxy, key, or login.

Are brand, rating, and highlights always filled?

No, and that is expected. Unbranded products return an empty brand, products with no reviews return null for rating and reviewCount, and highlights is an empty array when BAUHAUS shows no USP badges. The keys are always present so exports stay aligned.

What is inside the specifications object?

The product's German technical spec table, copied as label/value pairs. Expect 11 to 21 rows on most tools and machines, with keys like Spannweite Bohrfutter, Gewicht (Netto), or Gangzahl. The exact keys depend on the product category, so treat it as a flexible map rather than a fixed set of columns.

Can I scrape private or account-only pages?

No. The actor reads only publicly available product, category, and search pages. Anything behind the BAUHAUS login is out of scope.

How am I billed?

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing with three events: Actor Start, one event per Overview product, and one event per Detail product. Detail runs cost more per product because they also open each product page. Exact amounts are on the actor's Pricing tab.

How many products can I get, and how fast?

maxItems caps the total across all keywords and URLs (free runs are capped at 25). Raise maxConcurrency (up to 6) for more speed at the cost of more memory.

🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps

Compact reference for agents calling this actor via the Apify MCP server or the Apify API (actor: memo23/bauhaus-product-scraper).

Purpose: scrape product data from bauhaus.info (German DIY retailer) by keyword, category URL, or product URL.

Minimal input:

{
  "keywords": ["akkuschrauber"],
  "scrapeMode": "overview",
  "maxItems": 25
}

Output: one dataset row per product — productId, name, brand, price (number), currency (EUR), availability, rating, reviewCount, image, url, scrapedAt. Detail mode adds sku, ean, description, breadcrumbs[], highlights[] (can be empty), and specifications{} (11 to 21 German spec rows, keys vary by category).

Behaviors an agent should know:

• Always set maxItems; it caps total products across all keywords and URLs. Free runs are capped at 25.
• keywords and startUrls run together in one dataset. Category and search URLs are swept like keywords; product URLs (.../p/<id>) are fetched directly.
• scrapeMode: "overview" is the cheapest path. Switch to "detail" only when you need specs, EAN, or the description.
• Billing is pay-per-event: one Actor Start, plus one Overview or Detail event per product (see the Pricing tab). rating and reviewCount are null with no reviews; brand and highlights can be empty.
• Public data only, bauhaus.info only. No login-gated pages, no other country domains.
