AliExpress Scraper — Products, Reviews & Sellers

Free-plan limit: Apify free-plan runs can return at most 5 dataset records per run from this Actor, even if you request more.

Extract public AliExpress product listings, buyer reviews, and seller/store profiles from keyword searches or exact product URLs. The Actor is designed for product research, supplier comparison, catalog monitoring, dropshipping analysis, and marketplace datasets.

What it extracts

Each dataset row has a recordType discriminator:

Type	Main fields
product	Product ID, title, canonical URL, images, localized price, original price, currency, rating, review count, sold text, specifications, variants, seller reference
review	Review ID, rating, text, date, reviewer display name/country, purchased options, images, seller reply
seller	Seller/store IDs, name, URL, country, opening date, feedback rate/count, store score, top-rated flag, public metrics

Use this Actor for public product and supplier intelligence. Do not use it for checkout, account data, messages, private orders, or bypassing authentication and access controls.

Input

Provide searchQueries, productUrls, or both. Results are deduplicated by product ID.

{
  "searchQueries": ["wireless headphones"],
  "productUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008082049439.html" }
  ],
  "maxProducts": 10,
  "includeReviews": true,
  "maxReviewsPerProduct": 5,
  "includeSellers": true,
  "currency": "USD",
  "shipToCountry": "US",
  "maxConcurrency": 3,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}

maxProducts limits unique products. Review and seller rows are additional records. Prices and availability can vary by currency, destination, time, account state, and promotions.

Output example

{
  "recordType": "product",
  "productId": "1005008082049439",
  "productUrl": "https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005008082049439.html",
  "title": "Camera decal skin",
  "price": 15.73,
  "originalPrice": 22.61,
  "currency": "USD",
  "rating": 2,
  "reviewCount": 1,
  "sellerName": "HineFilm Official Store",
  "sellerId": "249061897",
  "scrapedAt": "2026-08-31T11:00:00.000Z"
}

The OUTPUT key-value-store record contains the terminal outcome, counts, warnings, build number, and duration. A valid no-match search returns zero dataset rows plus an explicit EMPTY summary. Access or parser failures are never converted into fabricated product records.

Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. These are the current Apify Store event prices:

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
apify-default-dataset-item	FREE: $0.004; BRONZE: $0.0035; SILVER: $0.003; GOLD: $0.002; PLATINUM: $0.002; DIAMOND: $0.002	AliExpress record — One validated product, review, or seller record written to the default dataset.
apify-actor-start	$0.005	Actor Start — Charged when the Actor starts running. Number of events charged depends on Actor memory (one event per GB, minimum one event). — Charged once per run.

Apify platform usage for this Actor run is included alongside the event prices above; no separate per-run platform-usage fee is passed to users.

This covers Apify platform usage for this Actor run. Other Apify products or usage outside this Actor run may still follow your account plan.

Reliability and limits

The Actor uses three public AliExpress-owned data surfaces: server-rendered search init data, the product page's signed MTop request, and public feedback pages. It keeps bounded concurrency and retries, supports an optional Apify proxy, normalizes records before storage, and writes partial valid data when individual products fail. To absorb short anti-creep incidents, it may reuse public detail or review data fetched within the previous six hours; OUTPUT warnings disclose every cached fallback and its original fetch time.

AliExpress changes markup, localization, promotions, and anti-automation policies. If direct access is blocked, configure a consistent proxy route and lower concurrency. The Actor does not solve CAPTCHAs, use logged-in cookies, or bypass access controls. Review availability depends on AliExpress exposing both a public seller identifier and public feedback for the product.

API use

Run the Actor through the Apify API with the same JSON input, then read defaultDatasetId for records or the run output links generated by the output schema. For automation, filter by recordType before loading product, review, and seller rows into separate downstream tables.

Legal and responsible use

Scrape only publicly available data and comply with AliExpress terms, applicable law, privacy rules, and your intended use. Review names may be masked but can still be personal data; minimize retention and do not use the output for harassment, discrimination, or unsolicited outreach. AliExpress is a trademark of its owner and is not affiliated with this Actor.

For support, include the Apify run ID, input with sensitive values removed, expected result type, and the relevant OUTPUT warning.

Use cases

• Monitor public products, prices, availability, sellers, and catalog changes.
• Build public prospect lists and qualify organizations or professionals before responsible outreach.
• Schedule repeatable collection and export results to downstream workflows.
• Run a one-off research job and export the structured result as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS from Apify.
• Schedule the same input to monitor changes over time and send completed datasets to a webhook or integration.
