Amazon Best Sellers Scraper

Get the ranked products of any amazon.com Best Sellers list: rank, ASIN, title, price, star rating, number of ratings, main image, and for books the author, format and other formats. Works with Best Sellers and New Releases, for every department and sub-category. Paste list URLs copied from amazon.com, or just category slugs (electronics, books, toys-and-games).

Plain HTTP requests, no browser: no login, no account, no cookies. The Actor reads only the public list pages, one page at a time per list with a pause, and respects amazon.com's robots.txt. If Amazon answers with a bot check, it tries once more and then leaves the list free: it never solves a captcha.

Typical uses

• Product research for Amazon sellers, FBA and dropshipping: what sells now in a category, at what price, with how many ratings.
• Trend watch: schedule a daily run on New Releases and see which new products climb.
• Rank tracking: follow the best seller rank of your products and your competitors' in their category.
• Book market: best-selling and new authors, formats and prices per genre.
• Spreadsheets, BI and AI agents: clean rows for Google Sheets, n8n, Make, Zapier or an MCP client.

What you get

One row per ranked product:

Field	Description
list, listUrl, listType	Your list, the page read, and its type (best-sellers or new-releases)
category	Department or category (Electronics, Kitchen & Dining)
rank	Rank in the list (1 = best)
asin, url	Amazon ASIN (ISBN-10 for books) and product link
title	Product title
price, priceText, currency	Price shown on the list (USD) and as shown
rating, ratingsCount	Average star rating (out of 5) and number of ratings
imageUrl	Main image, largest size the list gives
byline, format, otherFormats	Author, format (Hardcover, Kindle…) and "3 formats available" for books and media
page, observedAt	List page (1 or 2) and when it was read (UTC)

Missing values are always null, never guessed (some products show no price on the list, e.g. when only other sellers offer them). A list without products (or blocked, or unreadable) gets one free row with found: false, a status and a message.

Ranks: Amazon puts 30 products of each page of 50 in the page itself and loads the other 20 later with its script. This Actor returns those 30: ranks 1-30 (page 1) and 51-80 (page 2). Ranks 31-50 and 81-100 are not included.

Input

{
  "lists": ["https://www.amazon.com/gp/bestsellers/electronics/", "https://www.amazon.com/gp/new-releases/books/", "kitchen"],
  "maxResultsPerList": 60
}

• lists: one per line, up to 100 per run: a ranking URL from amazon.com (any department or sub-category; open the list, copy the address bar) or a category slug for its Best Sellers list.
• maxResultsPerList: 10 to 60 (default 60).

Only amazon.com (US store, prices in USD) for now. Movers & Shakers, Most Wished For and Gift Ideas are not supported yet (Amazon loads those products with a script): such URLs are listed in invalidLists of the run summary and cost nothing.
