MercadoLibre Mexico Offers Scraper
Scrape MercadoLibre Mexico offers by category, up to a million listings per run. Each offer returns its title, price, discount, seller info, and direct URL. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

It is built for market researchers, pricing analysts, and e-commerce sellers who need bulk offer data without writing a single line of code.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your category slug is valid for mercadolibre.com.mx. Try leaving the category field empty to confirm the Actor can reach the site. Also verify that your maxItems is set to a number greater than zero.
Why does the run stop before reaching my maxItems?
MercadoLibre may paginate a limited number of offers per category. If the category has fewer listings than your maxItems, the Actor will return everything available and finish cleanly.
Why are some prices or discounts missing in the output?
Some sellers do not display a discount or original price on their listing. The Actor returns whatever is publicly visible on the page; missing fields will appear as null or empty.
Why am I getting blocked or seeing errors?
Apify's proxy rotation handles most blocks automatically. If errors persist, try reducing your maxItems or adding a delay between requests in the advanced settings.
