🔧 Input

The scraper accepts several input options to help you get exactly the data you need:

• Start URL (optional) - Provide a Weedmaps listing URL (e.g., https://weedmaps.com/dispensaries/in/california/los-angeles). The actor uses this URL to derive state/city. Additional input filters (like Retailer Services) are still applied.
• Important about results?q= URLs - URLs like https://weedmaps.com/results?q=sa are not applied as keyword filters in this actor. The actor currently uses location-based listing filters (state/city + filters).
• State - Enter the US state slug (e.g., california, colorado, washington) to search dispensaries in that state. Used only when no Start URL is provided.
• City - Specify a city slug (e.g., los-angeles, denver, seattle) to narrow results to a specific city. Works together with the State filter.
• Max Items - Set the maximum number of results to collect. Free users can collect up to 100 items; paid users can request up to 1,000,000 items. Default prefill is 20.
• Retailer Services - Filter dispensaries by service type: Storefront, Delivery, or Pickup. Leave blank to include all service types.

❓ FAQ

How does the scraper collect data from Weedmaps?

The tool uses advanced web automation to navigate Weedmaps.com and extract dispensary listings and menu information. It handles site protections automatically, so you don't need to worry about technical details. Just set your filters and let it work.

How accurate is the price and inventory data?

The data is pulled directly from Weedmaps.com, so it reflects what dispensaries have currently listed. Inventory and prices change frequently, so we recommend re-running the scraper regularly if you need the most current data.

Can I schedule regular runs to track data over time?

Yes! Once you've set up your input parameters, you can schedule the actor to run on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to track changes in dispensaries, products, prices, and availability over time.

Does it collect data from all US states?

The scraper can access data from any state that Weedmaps.com covers. Simply enter your desired state slug. However, availability and licensing laws vary by state, so some regions may have limited listings.

What's the difference between storefront, delivery, and pickup options?

• Storefront - Customers can visit the physical location to browse and purchase in person
• Delivery - The dispensary delivers products to the customer's location
• Pickup - Customers place orders online and pick them up at the location

Why are residential proxies recommended?

Residential proxies help the tool access data reliably by appearing as requests from real users rather than automated bots. This prevents rate-limiting and ensures consistent data collection.

Does this scraper collect menu items automatically?

Yes. The actor always enriches runs with menu item details for the matched dispensaries.

Yes! Check the FAQ above, visit our support page for troubleshooting guides, or contact us for technical assistance.
