Whatnot Livestream Scraper

Whatnot Livestream Scraper by Omkar Cloud gets you 🎯 accurate, 🔍 detailed data on Whatnot live and upcoming shows.

Whatnot is built for watching on a phone, not for exporting. There is no download button for who is live, how many people are watching, or what is in each show's shop.

Whatnot Livestream Scraper gets you that data as clean JSON, CSV or Excel, so you can successfully complete your project.

$1 per 1,000 shows. And with Apify's free plan you get $5 of credit every month, so your first ~5,000 shows each month are free.

This is an excellent Actor made by Omkar Cloud, which is Rated Excellent — 4.7 based on 30 reviews on Trustpilot.

👉 Try Whatnot Livestream Scraper free — your first ~5,000 shows are Free.

• 🧑‍💼 The host — username, rating, review count, verified and Premier Shop flags
• 🏷️ Categories & tags — plus language and ships-from country of every show

Why Whatnot Livestream Scraper

Most other Whatnot scrapers fail you in one of four ways:

• 🗄️ Inaccurate, cached, stale data — useless for a live marketplace
• 🧩 Low-detail data — a title and a link, never the full picture
• 💸 Pay more to get the same data — $2–$3 per 1,000 results, plus a fee every time a run starts
• 🪦 Works today, breaks next month — nobody maintains it

Whatnot Livestream Scraper is scraped live on every run, priced honestly, and actively maintained.

  "livestream_id": "a6ed3616-7e21-4829-a1cd-48d4b7397c73",
  "livestream_title": "🇺🇸 💥DAY6! 30TH BREAKS AND WILD JAPANESE BOX BREAKS! W BIG O!",

}

Both trimmed for readability — image links, the host's username on shop items, break details and more are in the full rows. Every row is flat — each value is its own column, so CSV and Excel exports need no clean-up.

FAQs

How much does it cost?

$1 per 1,000 rows. A show is one row; a shop item (only when you turn on Include Shop Items) is one row. There is no start fee and no monthly rental, and the price is the same on every Apify plan. Apify's free plan gives you $5 of credit a month, which is about 5,000 shows.

Does it include live bid amounts?

No. For auction items you get the auction rules — the timer length (auction_duration_seconds), whether it is sudden death (auction_is_sudden_death) — and the starting price in price. The running bid is not included: current_bid and bid_count are in the output but are empty for almost every item.

Can I get upcoming shows, not just live ones?

Yes. Show Status defaults to live and upcoming together. Set it to Live now only or Upcoming only to narrow it down. Upcoming shows carry their scheduled time in starts_at and 0 viewers.

How do I find a category slug?

Open the category on whatnot.com — the slug is the last part of the link (whatnot.com/tag/sports_cards → sports_cards). You can also paste the whole link. Every show row lists its own category_slugs, so one run gives you slugs for the next.

How do I tell shows and shop items apart?

Every row has a type column: livestream or shop_item. Shop items carry livestream_id, livestream_title and the host's seller_username, so you can join them back to their show. The dataset also has ready-made Livestreams and Shop Items views.

Will I be billed twice for the same show?

No. If two keywords or categories find the same show, it is returned and billed once per run.

Are some columns empty?

Yes, and honestly so: you get what Whatnot shows publicly. Columns such as max_shipping_cost, has_free_shipping, labels, compare_at_price and bookmark_count are filled only when Whatnot publishes them for that show or item, which is rare.

How fresh is the data?

Every run scrapes Whatnot live. Viewer counts and statuses are the values at the moment of the run. Schedule the Actor on Apify to track shows over time.

Which formats can I export?

JSON, CSV, Excel, XML and HTML, or read the dataset through the Apify API.
