📊 DEX Screener Scraper

🚀 Export live DEX trading pairs in seconds. Look up a token contract, a chain + pair address, or run a free-text search to pull price, liquidity, FDV, volume, transactions, and multi-window price change for any pair on 20+ EVM and non-EVM chains. No API key, no wallet, no manual JSON parsing.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-13 · 📊 31 fields per pair · 🌐 20+ chains · 🦄 Every DEX indexed by DEX Screener

The DEX Screener Scraper queries the public DEX Screener API and returns a clean, structured record per trading pair, including base/quote token addresses, USD price, native price, 24h volume across four time windows, USD/base/quote liquidity, FDV, market cap, transaction counts (buys vs sells across m5/h1/h6/h24), and percent price change across four windows. The source feed is the same one that powers the DEX Screener web app, so every chain and DEX it lists is reachable from a single Actor input.

Coverage spans Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Solana, Base, Arbitrum, Polygon, Avalanche, Optimism, Fantom, Blast, Linea, Scroll, zkSync, PulseChain, TON, Sui, Aptos, Tron, HyperEVM, and more. Three lookup modes are baked in: full token sweep (every pair for a token contract), single pair lookup (chain + pair address), and search query (DEX Screener's name/symbol search, capped at ~30 pairs per query). Sort by 24h volume, USD liquidity, FDV, or 24h price change before applying maxItems. Download CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML.

🎯 Target Audience	💡 Primary Use Cases
Crypto traders, DeFi researchers, on-chain analysts, market-data engineers, quant teams, alpha groups, token treasuries	Token monitoring, new-pair discovery, liquidity tracking, price-change alerts, FDV scans, multi-chain dashboards, market-maker monitoring

📋 What the DEX Screener Scraper does

Three lookup workflows in a single run:

• 🪙 Token address mode. Drop in any token contract. Returns every pair where that token is one side, on every chain DEX Screener indexes.
• 🧭 Chain + Pair address mode. Look up one specific pair by chain slug (e.g. solana) and pair contract address.
• 🔍 Search query mode. Free-text search by token name, symbol, or pair (e.g. USDC, PEPE, wif). DEX Screener's search endpoint caps results at roughly 30 pairs per query.
• 🔽 Sort. Order by 24h volume, USD liquidity, FDV, or 24h price change before slicing to maxItems.

Each pair record carries the DEX Screener URL, chain ID, DEX ID, pair contract address, base and quote token metadata, USD and native price, 4-window volume (m5/h1/h6/h24), USD + base + quote liquidity, FDV, market cap, percent price change across 4 windows, and buy/sell counts across 4 windows.

💡 Why it matters: DeFi moves in seconds. Manually polling DEX Screener through a browser or rolling your own multi-chain aggregator is fragile and slow. This Actor returns a clean JSON record per pair with every metric the web UI surfaces, ready for dashboards, alerts, or quant pipelines.

⚙️ Input

Input	Type	Default	Behavior
searchQuery	string	"USDC"	Free-text DEX Screener search (token name, symbol, or pair). Caps at ~30 pairs per query.
tokenAddress	string	""	Token contract. Returns every pair where this token is one side.
chain	string (enum)	""	Chain slug used with Pair Address. 20 supported (ethereum, bsc, solana, base, arbitrum, polygon, avalanche, optimism, fantom, blast, linea, scroll, zksync, pulsechain, ton, sui, aptos, tron, hyperevm).
pairAddress	string	""	Pair contract address. Requires chain to be set. Returns just that pair.
maxItems	integer	10	Records to return. Free plan caps at 10, paid plan at 1,000,000.
sortBy	string (enum)	""	Order before applying maxItems. Options: volume24h, liquidityUsd, fdv, priceChange24h.

Example: every pair for USDC on every chain, sorted by 24h volume.

{
    "tokenAddress": "0xA0b86991c6218b36c1d19D4a2e9Eb0cE3606eB48",
    "maxItems": 50,
    "sortBy": "volume24h"
}

Example: single Solana pair by address.

{
    "chain": "solana",
    "pairAddress": "8sLbNZoA1cfnvMJLPfp98ZLAnFSYCFApfJKMbiXNLwxj",
    "maxItems": 1
}

⚠️ Good to Know: the search endpoint caps results at roughly 30 pairs per query regardless of maxItems. For wider coverage on a specific token, use Token Address mode. For exotic pairs, drop the chain + pair address pair directly.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

🧩 How does it work?

Pick a lookup mode (token address, chain + pair address, or search query), click Start, and the Actor calls the DEX Screener public API and emits a structured record per pair with price, liquidity, volume, FDV, transactions, and price-change windows.

🌐 Which chains does it cover?

20 chain slugs are enumerated in the input: ethereum, bsc, solana, base, arbitrum, polygon, avalanche, optimism, fantom, blast, linea, scroll, zksync, pulsechain, ton, sui, aptos, tron, hyperevm, and more. Token Address and Search modes return results across every chain DEX Screener indexes.

🔍 Why does my search return only ~30 results?

The DEX Screener search endpoint caps results at roughly 30 pairs per query, regardless of maxItems. For wider coverage on a single token, use Token Address mode (it returns every pair where that token is one side).

🪙 Do I need an API key or wallet?

No. The Actor uses the public DEX Screener API. No authentication, no wallet, no signing.

⏰ Can I schedule regular runs?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to trigger this Actor on any cron interval. Run minute-by-minute for live dashboards, hourly for analytics, or daily for snapshots.

🔁 How often is the data refreshed?

Every run hits the DEX Screener API directly. The data reflects current pool state at run time, with no caching.

💧 Are liquidity numbers in USD or native?

All three: liquidityUsd, liquidityBase, and liquidityQuote. Same for price (USD and native side-by-side).

📊 What's the difference between FDV and market cap?

FDV (fully diluted valuation) uses total supply. Market cap uses circulating supply. Both fields are populated when DEX Screener publishes them.

🔁 What happens if a run fails?

Apify retries transient errors automatically. If a run still fails, inspect the log in the Runs tab, adjust the input, and re-run. Partial datasets are preserved.

💳 Do I need a paid Apify plan?

No. The free plan covers testing and small runs (10 pairs per run). A paid plan lifts the limit and unlocks scheduling and larger datasets.
