Drift Protocol Markets Scraper
Scrape live Drift Protocol market data for any symbol, up to a million rows per run. Each market comes with its symbol, base asset, quote asset, market type, and current status. No API key or login. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Drift Protocol's official API requires an account, API key, and rate limits that slow down market research. This reads the public market feeds directly, filtered by symbol, and returns each match in one fixed schema. Get the full list of perpetual and spot markets on Drift in seconds.

What it does
This Actor collects Drift Protocol market listings by symbol filter and returns each market as a flat row.
- 🔍 Symbol filter: pass a comma-separated list like SOL-PERP,BTC-PERP to collect only those markets, or leave empty for all.
- 📊 Flat row output: every market is returned as a single row with symbol, base asset, quote asset, market type, and status.
- ⚡ Up to a million rows: set maxItems to collect as many markets as you need in one run.
- 📁 Multiple export formats: download your data as CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your symbolFilter is spelled correctly and matches symbols on Drift, such as SOL-PERP. Also ensure maxItems is at least 1.
Why did the run stop before collecting all markets?
The Actor stops when it reaches maxItems. Increase maxItems if you need more markets.
Why is my symbol filter not working?
Make sure you are using a comma-separated list without spaces, for example SOL-PERP,BTC-PERP. The filter is case-sensitive.
Why does the output have fewer rows than expected?
Drift Protocol may have fewer markets than you expect, or some markets may not match your filter. Try running without a filter to see the full list.
