John Deere Spain — Products & Specs Scraper

Extracts product listings and detailed technical specifications from the John Deere Spain website (deere.es). Outputs a clean, structured dataset ready for market intelligence, catalog analysis, and competitive research.

What it scrapes

Each run produces one dataset item per equipment model, containing:

• Identity — baseCode (internal John Deere ID), commercial headline, and subHeadline
• Product URL — direct link to the product detail page
• Image — highest-resolution image URL available
• Price — priceAmount and priceCurrencyCode (most B2B models return null)
• Technical specifications — full spec sheet as a flat key-value map, e.g.:

  {
    "Especificaciones clave > Capacidad de carga a la máxima altura": "1372.0 kg",
    "Especificaciones clave > Altura máxima de elevación (A)": "3680.0 mm",
    "Cargadora > Configuración de nivelación": "Nivelación automática mecánica (MSL)"
  }
  

• scrapedAt — UTC timestamp of extraction

Input parameters

Parameter	Type	Default	Description
category	String	front-end-loaders	Product category to scrape. See below for available categories.
maxResults	Integer	—	Max products to extract. Leave empty for all (recommended for first test: 10).
shopByFilter	Array	[]	Filter by equipment series. Multiselect. Leave empty for all series.
levelingFilter	Array	[]	Filter by loader leveling system type. Multiselect. Leave empty for all.
includeSpecifications	Boolean	true	Enrich each product with its full technical spec sheet. Disabling this roughly halves run time.
proxyConfiguration	Object	—	Proxy settings. Not required for standard runs — the site does not aggressively block scrapers.
debugMode	Boolean	false	Enable verbose DEBUG logging. For troubleshooting only.

Available categories

Key	Description	Known models
front-end-loaders	Palas cargadoras frontales	18 models

More categories will be added as they are mapped.

Nivelación automática mecánica	Mechanical auto-leveling — 4 models
Sin nivelación automática (NSL)	No Self-Leveling — 3 models

Example inputs

Scrape all front-end loaders with full specs:

{
  "category": "front-end-loaders",
  "includeSpecifications": true
}

Quick test — first 5 Serie R models:

{
  "category": "front-end-loaders",
  "shopByFilter": ["Serie R"],
  "maxResults": 5,
  "includeSpecifications": true
}

All MSL models, no specs (fast):

{
  "category": "front-end-loaders",
  "levelingFilter": ["Nivelación automática mecánica (MSL)"],
  "includeSpecifications": false
}

Output format

Each dataset item follows this schema:

{
  "baseCode": "543R",
  "headline": "543R",
  "subHeadline": "Palas cargadoras frontales",
  "productUrl": "https://www.deere.es/es-es/productos-soluciones/cargadoras/palas-cargadoras-frontales/543r-...",
  "image": "https://www.deere.es/content/dam/deere-dtac/products/...",
  "priceAmount": null,
  "priceCurrencyCode": "",
  "specifications": {
    "Especificaciones clave > Capacidad de carga a la máxima altura": "1372.0 kg",
    "Especificaciones clave > Altura máxima de elevación (A)": "3680.0 mm",
    "Cargadora > Configuración de nivelación": "Nivelación automática mecánica (MSL)",
    "Tractor compatible > Potencia neta del motor": "85 CV"
  },
  "scrapedAt": "2026-08-22T21:45:00.000000+00:00"
}

The Apify Console Output tab shows two views:

• Products — table with code, model, category, price, URL, image, and scrape timestamp
• Specifications — table with code, model, and the full specifications object

Technical notes

API used

The actor uses John Deere Spain's internal REST API — the same calls the website makes from the browser:

Endpoint	Description
GET /service/productSearch/{categoryPath}/products	Product listing with pagination (?page=N, 12 items/page)
GET /service/productSearch/{categoryPath}/filter	Filter metadata (ranges, checkbox options, shopBy tiles)
GET /service/data/specifications/{baseCode}/432824	Technical spec sheet per product

Filters are passed as query params:

• shopBy: ?shopBy=Serie+R
• Checkbox: ?wgSpecifications-es_ES-hydraulicSystem-levelingConfiguration--Nivelación+automática+mecánica+(MSL)=true

The specSchemaId 432824 is fixed for the Spanish market and has been validated against all 18 front-end loader models without a single failure.

Rate limiting

The actor uses a 1.5-second delay between API calls by default. This is conservative enough to avoid any rate limiting on the current 18-model catalog. The site does not use aggressive bot detection.

Proxy

Proxy is not required for standard runs. The proxyConfiguration input is provided for cases where you experience blocking (unlikely) or need to rotate IPs for large-scale monitoring.

Compliance

This actor accesses only publicly available product information from www.deere.es. It:

• Respects the site's natural request cadence (1.5s delay between calls)
• Does not extract personally identifiable information (PII)
• Uses the same API endpoints the website calls from a standard browser session
• Is intended for legitimate market intelligence and catalog analysis purposes
