Shopify App Store Scraper

Scrape Shopify App Store apps by keyword or slug, up to a million per run. Every app comes with its title, developer, category, rating, reviews count, and pricing. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

The Shopify App Store has thousands of apps, but no official API for bulk discovery. This Actor reads the public sitemap and app pages directly, filtered by keyword or fetched by exact slug, and returns each app in one fixed schema. Use it to monitor competitors, find new tools, or build your own app directory.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check your keyword filter. It matches the app slug, not the app title. Try a broader term like 'seo' or 'email'. Also ensure the maximum apps is set high enough.

Why did the run stop before reaching my max items?

The sitemap may not contain enough apps matching your keyword. Try removing the keyword filter or using direct slugs.

Can I get more fields than what is returned?

The Actor returns a fixed set of fields from the app pages. If you need additional data, consider using a custom scraper or contacting support.

Why are some apps missing from the results?

The sitemap may not include every app, especially newly added ones. Use direct slugs for specific apps you know exist.

How do I export the data?

After the run finishes, go to the Dataset tab and choose your format: CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
