MercadoLibre Product & Seller Data Scraper

Free plan limit: Free-plan users can receive up to 5 result records per run. Paid-plan and local/unknown runs retain the Actor's existing limits.

Extract structured product, price, specification, and public seller data from MercadoLibre search results and individual product pages for market research, catalog monitoring, and seller analysis.

MercadoLibre product and seller fields

Field	Description
productId	Marketplace offer ID, preferring the selected wid offer on catalog pages
title, description	Public product title and description
priceAmount, currency	Numeric price and normalized marketplace currency code
condition, availableQuantity	Public condition and visible stock indicator when available
imageUrls, attributes	Product images and technical specifications
seller	Public name, profile URL, reputation label, and sales text
productUrl, sourceSearchUrl	Product URL and originating search URL

It does not collect private seller contact details, accounts, messages, checkout data, or bypass MercadoLibre access controls.

Input

Use startUrls with public MercadoLibre product or search pages. For example:

{
  "startUrls": ["https://listado.mercadolibre.com.ar/iphone"],
  "maxResults": 5,
  "maxPages": 1,
  "includeSellerDetails": true,
  "proxyCountry": "AR"
}

maxResults is capped at 200 and maxPages at 10. Search cards are followed to their public product pages so the output has a consistent product-and-seller shape. Leave proxyCountry blank to use the broadest residential pool; set it only when country-specific routing is required.

Pricing

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

Event	Price (USD)	When it is charged
apify-actor-start	$0.082746	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.
product-returned	$0.025	Product returned — Charged after each schema-valid public MercadoLibre product and seller record is saved.

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.

Limitations

MercadoLibre applies traffic controls that vary by marketplace and location. The Actor uses low concurrency with residential routing, persistent cookies, and fresh-session retries for public pages. If every permitted route returns a verification page, the run writes a truthful RUN_SUMMARY diagnostic instead of fabricated records.

Use only for public data you are permitted to collect and follow MercadoLibre's terms and applicable privacy laws. Private contact details, accounts, messages, checkout data, authentication bypass, and CAPTCHA solving are outside this Actor's scope.
