Walmart Product Scraper

Extract Walmart.com product data by URL or item ID. Returns price, list price, unit price, stock, ratings, star breakdown, seller (1P or 3P), shipping, pickup, delivery, hi-res images, feature highlights, specifications, variants, top reviews, and 30 more fields per product. Pay-per-result, no login required.

What it does

You provide Walmart product URLs or bare item IDs. You get back clean, structured JSON, one row per product.

• Any URL format works: /ip/12345678, /ip/product-slug/12345678, or the full share URL
• Bare item IDs are accepted too. 5 to 12 digit numeric IDs from the URL
• Runs 1 to 50 requests in parallel (default 10)
• Returns 32 to 40 fields per product depending on what Walmart exposes on that PDP
• One row per item ID. No duplicates, no filler rows, no phantom entries for invalid IDs

Pricing

$0.001 per actor start, plus $0.0013 per scraped product. $1.30 per 1,000 products.

You only pay for products that successfully return data. Failed fetches and invalid item IDs are not charged.

New to Apify? Every account gets a $5 free monthly platform credit, enough for around 3,700 results on this actor before you commit to paying anything. Plenty to test the full feature set.

Why this scraper

This actor is built in Go, not Node or Python. Every other Walmart scraper on this marketplace runs on CheerioCrawler, Playwright, or Python asyncio. This one ships as a single 14 MB static Go binary with an Akamai-tuned TLS fingerprint. Cold start is under a second, memory footprint is 128 MB, and every field is populated in the same request. No follow-up round-trips to fetch reviews or specs.

Walmart runs on Akamai Bot Manager, which rate-limits scrapers that reuse IPs. This actor rotates through fresh Apify datacenter session IDs on every retry (3 IPs before escalating to residential), and warms each with a homepage visit to set the ak_bmsc and bm_sv cookies before hitting the PDP. Residential fallback exists but is capped at 5% of the run. Most Walmart URLs succeed on datacenter, which is why the actor stays at $0.0013 per result.

Fields are extracted directly from Walmart's __NEXT_DATA__ JSON blob, so structured data comes out clean. No fragile CSS selectors, no half-parsed prices with stray currency symbols. Fields like starsBreakdown (a five-way rating histogram as fractions), unitPrice (with unit label), sellerType (1P vs 3P), and topReviews (up to 8 reviews with stars, text, author, and date) come out of the box.

Every product returns sellerType: "1P" when sold by Walmart or "3P" when the listing is fulfilled by a marketplace seller, plus the full seller identity block. Useful for competitive intelligence, marketplace monitoring, and avoiding third-party price traps.

Multipack titles like "Pack of 4" or "8-count" are flagged with isMultipack: true and multipackCount: 8 so you can filter them downstream or attribute reviews correctly to the parent product.

Invalid or delisted item IDs are detected via Walmart's soft-404 shell (the data.product node is null in __NEXT_DATA__) and rejected before pushing to the dataset. You are never billed for phantom rows.

• 1P vs 3P monitoring. Watch sellerType and seller.id to detect when Walmart hands a listing to a marketplace seller, which often signals a price change.
• Rollback tracking. Filter by isRollback: true and the ratio listPrice / price to discover live promotions.
• Variant discovery. Use variantDetails to enumerate all sibling SKUs of a parent listing.
• Review analytics. Pull topReviews for sentiment analysis or product-quality signals.

Notes and limits

One row per item ID per run. If you submit the same item ID via both startUrls and itemIds, it is deduplicated.

Variant item IDs are listed inside variantDetails, but each variant's full PDP is not separately fetched in v1. To enrich them, pass the variant IDs in a follow-up run.

Reviews returned: top 8 reviews per product when scrapeReviewSample=true. For the full review stream on a single PDP, use a dedicated Walmart reviews scraper.

Localization. Language toggles between en-US and es-US on the same catalog. zipCode sets the delivery region, which affects displayed price on regional promos plus pickup and delivery availability.

Invalid or delisted item IDs are detected via Walmart's soft-404 shell (the product node in __NEXT_DATA__ is null) and rejected before pushing to the dataset. Not billed as results.

Fields that may be null

Some fields are situational. They populate when Walmart shows them and stay null otherwise. This is not an extraction bug.

• listPrice only when the product is on sale.
• unitPrice only on consumables and bulk goods.
• warranty and returnPolicy only when the PDP surfaces them.
• variantAttributes and variantDetails only on parent listings with variants.
• isBestSeller, isRollback, isClearance, isFlashDeal, isSponsored populate only when Walmart shows the badge.
• answeredQuestions only on items with a Q&A section.
• videosCount only when the PDP has product videos.

Recommended concurrency

5 to 10 parallel requests is the sweet spot. Higher works but transient Akamai blocks become more frequent. The actor handles these via automatic retries (small extra time, no data loss). Above 20 you may start pushing residential fallback (5% cap enforced).

Retry strategy

Each item ID gets up to 3 fresh datacenter proxy IPs before escalating to residential (capped at 5% of the run). Block detection fires on HTTP 403, 412, 429, or 503, on "Robot or human?" or "Access Denied" pages, or on PDPs under 30 KB (a real Walmart PDP is 150 to 400 KB). Most runs finish with 0% residential escalation at the lowest cost tier.
