Taobao & Tmall Products Scraper

🛒 What is Taobao & Tmall Products Scraper?

Taobao & Tmall Products Scraper extracts products from Taobao and Tmall: title, price, discount, photos, shop and its rating, for any keyword, category, shop or product link. As options it adds the product page (ship-from city, seller credit level, shop age and scores, buyer ratings), the latest buyer review with the review keywords, and one row per shop. It works as a Taobao API alternative: run it on a schedule, call it from your code, or plug it into Make, Zapier or n8n.

Type a keyword (蓝牙耳机) or paste a Taobao or Tmall link, click Start, and download the products in JSON, CSV or Excel. No login, nothing to set up. Taobao shows only 20 products per page without an account: Go past the first 20 results reads the same search again in several orders, price ranges and brands, to return many more. Monitoring tells you which products are new and which changed price since your last run.

📋 What data can you extract from Taobao & Tmall?

One item per product, 58 fields:

Category	What you get
🏷️ Product	title, link, Taobao product number, photos, selling points — 夹耳式蓝牙耳机柏林德国骨传导无线运动游戏续航大电量2026新款
💰 Price and promotions	current price in yuan, crossed-out price, price in Hong Kong and Taiwan dollars, promotion label — 25.44 CNY, 特价秒杀
🏪 Shop	shop name, number, link, the shop's "item as described" score — 4.74
🗂️ Category	category number, top category number, category path
🛍️ Taobao or Tmall	platform, ship-from city, seller type, seller credit level, shop opening date, number of products, the 3 shop scores against its category — 浙江金华
👍 Buyer ratings	share of positive, neutral and negative ratings, payment methods, coupon link
⭐ Latest review	rating, text, date, variant bought, follow-up review, photos, and what buyers say most with how many said it — 330 buyers: long battery life
🚚 Buying agents	the product on HooBuy, KakoBuy and CNFans, the sites that ship Taobao orders abroad
🔎 The search	keyword, results page, rank on it, number of results Taobao announces
🔔 Price monitoring	new product, price drop or rise, previous price, change in %
🏬 Shop rows	one row per shop: name, logo, seller, 3 scores, size of the catalogue

Every field, with an example, is listed in the Output section below.

Fields of the Taobao or Tmall, Buyer ratings and Latest review rows come from the product page: they are filled only when you tick Product page or Latest review and review keywords (both are options, off by default, see the price section) or give the product by link or number. Everything else comes with the search itself.

✅ Why use Taobao & Tmall Products Scraper?

• 🧭 Search, categories, shops and products in one Actor: keywords (several in one run), category numbers, shop pages, product links, and e.tb.cn / m.tb.cn share links.
• 📦 Past the first 20 products: Taobao stops at 20 per keyword or category page; the Actor reads the search again in other orders, price ranges and brands (the first page, then up to 200 other pages per search) and keeps the new products each time.
• 📍 Ships from a province: only products shipped from Guangdong, Zhejiang, Shanghai… alone or for several provinces in one run.
• 🛒 Buying-agent links: the HooBuy, KakoBuy and CNFans pages of every product, built from its number.
• 🈶 Simplified or traditional Chinese: titles and shop names as mainland sellers write them, or in the Hong Kong and Taiwan script.
• 🔔 Monitoring built in: tick Only new products, schedule the Actor, and each run returns only what it has never delivered; add price changes to hear when a price moves.
• 🧩 Nothing twice: a product found by several searches is saved once.

🚀 How to scrape Taobao & Tmall

1. Create a free Apify account.
2. Open Taobao & Tmall Products Scraper and type a Search keyword (e.g. 蓝牙耳机).
3. Or paste your own Taobao or Tmall links into Taobao / Tmall URLs: keyword, category, shop or product pages.
4. Set Max products (100 by default, 0 = no limit) — and Max products per search when you run several searches — then click Start.
5. Download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel or via API.

💰 How much does it cost to scrape Taobao & Tmall?

This Actor uses pay per event pricing: you pay for each product returned, plus a small fee per run start. Everything else is an option, off by default, charged apart and only for what it delivers. See the Pricing tab for every amount.

• Product page (Product page, and every product you give by link or number in Product URLs or IDs or as a product link or share link in Taobao / Tmall URLs): one charge for each product delivered with its product page.
• Latest review (Latest review and review keywords): one charge for each product that has a review, review keywords or a number of reviews to deliver. It reads the product page, so the product page is charged too.
• One row per shop (One row per shop): one charge for each shop row, on top of the price of a row of the dataset. A shop row does not count in Max products.
• Price changes (Also products whose price changed): one charge for each product returned because its price moved by at least Min price change (%). A new product costs its normal product price only.
• Filter check and Detail filter check: the filters Taobao does not offer are applied by the Actor on every product it reads. A product that passes them costs its normal price; a product a filter drops costs a small filter fee instead, so filtering never costs more than taking everything. Filter check covers Exclude keywords, Min shop score and the price range (Taobao is asked for the range too: only a product it lets through and the Actor then drops pays the fee). Detail filter check covers Tmall only, which needs the product page: each product dropped after its page was read pays it. Sort, province and free shipping are applied by Taobao and cost nothing extra. Go past the first 20 results has no fee of its own: you pay per product saved, but it reads many more products, so with a filter on, each product the filter drops among them pays its filter fee.

Platform usage (compute, proxy) is included in the price.

query, searchQueries	Keyword, as typed on Taobao (蓝牙耳机); searchQueries adds more keywords, one search each. Chinese keywords work best; short English words work too.
location, locations	Ship-from province, in Chinese (simplified or traditional) or English: 广东 or Guangdong. locations adds more provinces; every keyword is searched in every province (max 500 searches per run). Taobao's filter takes 16 provinces and municipalities: Guangdong, Beijing, Zhejiang, Hunan, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Fujian, Hubei, Shandong, Henan, Hebei, Chongqing, Sichuan, Heilongjiang, Shanxi and Jiangxi; any other name is refused.

💡 Tips

How to get more results

Set maxItems to 0, keep Go past the first 20 results on and use a broad keyword or a precise category. Taobao shows 20 products per keyword or category page and 60 per shop, with no second page. With deepScan the Actor reads the same search again in other orders, price ranges and brands, and a search stops when its cap is reached, after 200 other pages, or when a whole round of pages brings fewer than 2 new products for every 5 pages read. On a small catalogue, Taobao widens the search: some of the extra products may only have your keyword in their title, and their relevance is lower. The province filter is approximate too: in a sample of 15 products, about 2 shipped from another province. Several keywords, provinces and categories add more searches.

Speed, measured on real runs: about 650 products a minute from search pages (500 products with Go past the first 20 results in under a minute), and about 6 seconds for a product page, 5 read at once.

How to reduce costs

The price is per product, so the levers are maxItems, maxItemsPerQuery, the filters Taobao applies itself (sort, province, free shipping: a product it does not list costs nothing) and onlyNew for recurring runs (a product delivered once is never charged again). The product page, the latest review, the shop rows and the price changes are options: leave them off when you do not need them. deepScan and the keywords add products, not fees: you pay per product saved (with a filter on, each product it drops pays its small filter fee, and deepScan reads more of them).

Several searches in one run

Fill searchQueries and / or locations: the Actor runs one search per keyword × province (3 keywords × 4 provinces = 12 searches, up to 500 per run); categories are searched in every province too. The single query and location fields still work and are added to the lists. A product found by several searches is saved — and charged — once. Set maxItemsPerQuery to give every search its own cap: without it the first searches can use up the whole maxItems budget. You can also paste several links into startUrls: each keyword, category or shop link is a search of its own, with the same cap.

Keywords, categories and shops

Taobao publishes a public page for common product terms only. Chinese keywords work best (蓝牙耳机 for Bluetooth earphones), short English words such as iphone work too, and many multi-word English phrases do not: a keyword without a page returns nothing, and the run log names it (nothing is charged). A category number is read in a category link (/category/50005050.htm gives 50005050) or in the categoryId of a previous run; a top-level category has no public page, so use the most precise one. A shop returns its listed products, up to 60.

Ships from a province

location and locations use Taobao's own "ships from" filter, for 16 provinces and municipalities. It is approximate: in a sample of 15 products, about 2 shipped from another province. They filter keyword and category searches; shop and product pages take no province (a run that gives provinces together with only shops or products says so in its log). Sort, price range and free shipping work the same way: Taobao applies them to keyword and category pages.

Product page, latest review and shop rows

With extractDetails each product page is read: Taobao or Tmall, ship-from city, the price on the page (it can be lower than the card's), seller type and credit level, shop opening date, number of products, the shop's 3 scores against its category, the share of positive, neutral and negative ratings (Taobao shops only), payment methods and the coupon link. With includeReviews the latest review Taobao shows (it shows one without a login, buyer name left out) and the review keywords are added. With includeShopProfile each shop of the products found, and each shop in shopIds, also gets a row of its own with type set to shop, charged once per shop and per run (the shop fee, on top of the price of a row). Without includeShopProfile, shopIds returns products only. A shop none of whose products is saved in the run (all dropped by a filter, or all delivered before with onlyNew) gets no row, and so no charge. A product given by link or number is always read from its product page.

Filters

Taobao applies sortBy, freeShippingOnly, the province and, loosely, minPrice / maxPrice. The Actor applies the others on every product it reads: excludeKeywords, minRating, the exact price range and, with extractDetails, tmallOnly. A product dropped by the Actor is not saved and does not count in maxItems, and costs the filter fee shown in the Pricing tab. A product without the value a filter reads (no price, no shop score) is dropped. Taobao has no "lowest price first" order on these pages and no "newest" order: use maxPrice, and onlyNew to get the new products at each run.

Monitoring: only the new products

Tick Only new products (onlyNew) and schedule the Actor. The first run returns everything; each later run skips the products already delivered: they are not saved, not charged, and their product page is not even opened. The memory lives in a named key-value store of your account (taobao-products-scraper-seen, up to 150,000 products per key) and is only updated with products that really reached the dataset, so a failed run never hides anything. Give each schedule its own stateKey (two schedules sharing a key would hide each other's products), and tick resetState once to start over. Taobao has no "newest" order and prints no date, so "new" means never delivered to you under this key, not newly listed on Taobao: a later run can bring products listed long ago that the earlier runs did not reach (the site shows 20 products per page), and none of them was delivered before. With onlyNew, a product your filters drop is remembered under the same stateKey and skipped for free by the next runs with the same filters; one dropped by the price range is checked again, because its price can move.

Monitoring: price changes

Tick Also products whose price changed (includePriceChanges, needs onlyNew) and each run also returns the products it delivered before whose price moved: changeType is price_drop or price_rise, with previousPrice and priceChangePercent. A new product has changeType new.

• Which price is followed. The price of the row, in yuan: the card's price, or the product page's price when the row was built with it (extractDetails, a product given by link).
• How big a change must be. A product is returned, and charged, only when its price moved by at least minPriceChangePercent (3 % by default) compared with the price on the last row delivered to you for that product, not with the previous run: small moves add up, and the product comes back once the total passes your threshold.
• A product that did not move enough stays out of the dataset and costs nothing.
• Memory. Prices live under the same stateKey as onlyNew, up to 50,000 products per key (the ones not met for the longest time are forgotten and learned again silently, never reported as changes). Under 512 MB of run memory, the prices of the 25,000 products met last are kept. resetState forgets prices and delivered products together, so the next run returns and charges everything again.

🔌 Integrations and API

Call the Actor via the Apify API, the JavaScript or Python clients, or connect it with integrations and webhooks (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable…). The dataset can be fetched as JSON or CSV from any tool.

Key output fields: url, title, price, currency, shopName, shopRating, categoryId, searchUrl. Cap each call with maxItems and, through the API, with the run option maxTotalChargeUsd. The prices are in the Pricing tab.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Taobao & Tmall?

The Actor only reads what Taobao shows publicly to any anonymous visitor. It logs in to nothing. Results can contain personal data (a shop name or the text of a review can name a person), which is protected by GDPR: do not store it without a legitimate reason. The latest review is delivered without the buyer's name. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with Taobao's Terms of Use and applicable law. This Actor is not affiliated with Taobao, Tmall or Alibaba.

Does it need a login or a proxy?

No login. The proxy is included in the price: leave the default setting (the residential proxy is not available). A request the site turns away is retried at once on a new proxy session, up to 10 times on top of the retries (without a proxy, after a pause of 5 seconds, doubled at each retry up to 150 seconds).

Why does my keyword return nothing?

Taobao publishes a public page for common product terms only. A keyword without a page returns no product, and the run log names it; nothing is charged. Try the Chinese word, a shorter word, a category number, or paste a Taobao link into Taobao / Tmall URLs.

Why do some products cost 99,999 or 99,999,999?

Taobao prints these placeholder prices on some listings (they come first when you sort highest price first). The Actor returns the price as Taobao shows it. Set Max price to leave them out.

Is the data safe to open in Excel or to show on a web page?

Titles, shop names and review texts are the sellers' and buyers' own words, copied as they are. A text can begin with -, +, = or @: Excel and Google Sheets may read such a cell of a CSV file as a formula or as a number. The Actor leaves the text as it is, so that the JSON and the API give the real value: when you open a CSV, import these columns as text. Every URL field holds an http(s) URL or null. On a web page, escape every field like any text written by a stranger.

Known limitations

• Without an account Taobao shows 20 products per keyword or category page and 60 per shop, with no second page. Go past the first 20 results reads more of a keyword or category search; a shop returns its 60 listed products at most.
• The number of units sold, the variants with their price and stock, the product description and the buyers' questions are not available: Taobao does not show them without a login. Only one review per product is shown, so only that one is delivered.
• Affiliate links (s.click.taobao.com) need a Taobao login: they are skipped with a line in the log, and not charged.
• Titles of products read from their link alone are cut by Taobao (titleTruncated is then true).
• The same product read through a search, a shop and its own link does not give the same row everywhere. Prices, photos and numbers agree; the differences come from what each Taobao page shows: a product page only (extractDetails, a link) gives the ship-from city, seller, shop and rating details and its own price (price, which can be lower than the card's; priceHkd / priceTwd are then empty); the card only (search, shop, category) gives sellingPoints, discountLabel, the host prices and rank. title is the card's title, or the product page's title (shortened by Taobao, often another wording) for a product read from its link; categoryPath is empty on a shop page; shopRating has two decimals on a search card (4.75) and one on a shop or product page (4.7); on a shop page Taobao itself cuts long shop names (深圳华强北正品直销总..., the shop number stays the same).
• onlyNew remembers product numbers, not their content: a product whose price changed is returned again only with includePriceChanges.
• Sometimes Taobao answers a page without applying the sort, the price range, the province or the free-shipping filter. The log says so, once per search: the price range is still checked on every product, the order is Taobao's default one, and a page asked for a province or for free shipping comes back empty (its products cannot be told from those of another province, or from those that do not ship free; the page is read again once on another IP first). When Go past the first 20 results gets such an answer on its extra pages, it brings nothing new and stops by itself on that search.
• Two runs sharing the same stateKey at the same time may both return the same new product.

A run that reaches its timeout stops itself about 45 seconds before it: no new page is asked, what it read is saved and, with onlyNew, remembered, and the run ends Succeeded with "Stopped before the run's timeout". Resurrect it to go on from there, or give the next run a longer timeout (Run options).

A run the platform stops without warning (out of memory)

• Resurrect it: it goes on from where it stood at most a minute before the stop. What it had read since is read again, and the products already saved are skipped: none is delivered or charged twice, and maxItems still counts them.
• With onlyNew, the memory is saved after each write (at most once every 2 seconds): resurrect the stopped run and the products it had saved meanwhile join the memory; leave it stopped for good, and the next run may return the products of its last 2 seconds once more.

The last line of the log counts the products saved, filtered out and the requests that failed after every retry. Those requests are listed, with the reason, in the FAILED_REQUESTS record of the run's key-value store. A run that saved nothing and had failed requests fails, and its last message gives the cause.

If Taobao changes its pages, you are told instead of paying for blank rows. If the first 20 products read all lack their title, price, photo or shop number, the run saves nothing more, stops and fails, and its last message names the missing field: at most those first products are charged. A run of fewer products (a scheduled onlyNew run that finds a few new ones, a small Max products) is checked at its end, from 5 products.

Open an issue in the Issues tab with a link to your run: the run log and the FAILED_REQUESTS record of the key-value store show exactly which URLs failed and why.
