Use with AI agents (MCP)

You can run this Actor from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any other MCP client through the Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com), using the Actor ID rt-solutions/coles-scraper. Ask in plain language, for example: "Get this week's Coles specials and list the half-price coffee products." The agent starts the run and reads the results for you. The Actor also works through the Apify API and integrations such as Make, n8n and Zapier.

FAQ

Which store's prices? The standard online prices shown on coles.com.au without a selected store.

Why is nutrition missing for some products? Coles shows nutrition only for food and drinks that provide it.

Is it legal? The Actor collects public product information shown to any visitor without login.

How do I scrape Coles prices without an API? Choose a mode (search, categories, all specials or full catalogue) and start the run. The Australian residential proxy Coles requires is used by default and included in the price.

How much does it cost to scrape the full Coles catalogue? About 30,000 products × $1.50 per 1,000 = about $45, or about $75 with product details. The weekly specials catalogue (~8,000 deals) costs about $12.

Can I track Coles specials every week? Yes. Schedule the All specials mode weekly in Apify and export the results to CSV, Excel or JSON.

Why is the barcode missing? Barcodes (GTIN/EAN) come with the Include product details option.
