Taobao Product Details Scraper

🛒 Taobao Product Details Scraper: Every SKU, Price and Stock from Taobao and Tmall in English

Paste Taobao or Tmall (淘宝/天猫) product links, share links or item ids and get one clean row per product. The Taobao Product Details Scraper returns the title in English (or the original Chinese), the listed price in Chinese yuan and US dollars, the shop name, all photos, the description images and every variant (SKU) with its own price, stock and photo. It works as a Taobao product API for Taobao agents, dropshipping stores and anyone who needs Taobao data in English.

🎯 Use Cases

• Taobao in English: read any Taobao or Tmall product with English titles, English variant names and USD prices next to the yuan price.
• Taobao link converter: turn share links and share texts copied from the Taobao app (【淘宝】… https://e.tb.cn/…) into a product link, item id and full product data.
• Taobao agent and shopping-agent workflows: get every variant's price, stock and photo for the products your customers send you.
• Taobao dropshipping: import variants, photos and description images into your store, and refresh stock and prices on a schedule.
• Taobao price and stock tracking: re-run the same item list daily and compare variant prices and stock.

✨ Features

• Every variant (SKU): variant id, name (Color: White / Size: M), properties, listed price in CNY and USD, stock and photo, in one skus array per product.
• English or Chinese: English translations of titles and variant names, or the original Chinese.
• Any link format: item.taobao.com, detail.tmall.com, mobile m. and h5. links, world.taobao.com links, share links and whole share texts, or bare numeric item ids.
• Shop and media: shop name and id, main image, all product photos and the images from the product description, plus the description HTML.
• Order fields: minimum order quantity and the domestic shipping fee inside China.
• No duplicates: the same product pasted twice is saved and billed once.
• Fair billing: products removed from Taobao and links that cannot be read are never billed; the status message lists them.

price is the listed price in Chinese yuan (CNY) and priceUsd the same price in US dollars; each variant in skus has its own. itemId is Taobao's numeric item id when you pasted a link or numeric id, and id is the encrypted item id that also works as input. Each variant's stock is shown up to 200, so totalStock is a lower bound for products with large stock. domesticShippingFeeCny is the seller's shipping fee inside China.

🔁 Schedule and Integrate

For price and stock tracking, run the same item list once a day: each run is a dated snapshot of every variant's price and stock. Set it up in Apify Schedules, and send new rows to Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, n8n or a webhook with Apify integrations.

🤖 Use with AI Agents (MCP)

This Actor works as a tool in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and other MCP clients through the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com). An agent can call it with:

{ "items": ["https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=730344766230"] }

❓ FAQ

Does Taobao have an official API? Taobao's open platform (淘宝开放平台) is for approved partners with a registered app and a Chinese business account, and its item APIs need approval. This Actor needs no key, account or approval and returns the product data a shopper sees, with every variant.

Can I read Taobao in English? Yes. Titles and variant names come translated to English by default, and every price is given in CNY and USD. Switch Titles in to Chinese for the original text.

Do share links from the Taobao app work? Yes. Paste the link (https://e.tb.cn/h.…) or the whole share text; the Actor finds the product. A share link that points to a removed product is listed in the status message and not charged.

Do I need a Taobao account? No. No login, cookies or Chinese phone number.

Why is a field empty? itemId is empty when you pasted an encrypted id. Some products have a single variant, no description images or no shipping fee. Removed products give no row at all.

Does it give sales counts or reviews? No. Rows carry price, variants, stock, shop, photos and the description; sales counts and reviews are not included.

What is the stock limit? Each variant's stock is shown up to 200 units.
