Scrape Discogs by search or by artist / label — with collector demand (have / want), genres, styles, formats, labels, year, country and optional marketplace prices. Built for vinyl collectors, record dealers and crate-diggers.
No login required — reads Discogs' public API. A free token is optional (only raises the rate limit).
What it does
Give it search terms (and optional filters) and it returns matching releases, normalized:
title, year, format, genre, style, country, label, catno, have, want, demandRatio, masterId, barcode, coverImage, url — plus lowestPrice and numForSale when price enrichment is on.
demandRatio = want ÷ have. Above 1 means more collectors want it than own it — a scarcity / demand signal.
Use cases
- Find in-demand records — sort by
demandRatioto spot what's hot and scarce. - Pricing & flipping — turn on
includePricefor the lowest marketplace price and how many copies are for sale. - Full discography / label catalog — give an artist or label and pull their entire back catalogue.
- Collection valuation — match your wantlist against current demand and prices.
Input
| Field | Description |
|---|---|

type | Search type: release, master, artist or label. |

labels | Label names, Discogs label URLs (discogs.com/label/23528-Warp-Records) or ids — pulls the full catalog. |

Output
One row per release with the fields above. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets.
Notes
Discogs rate-limits the API (≈25 requests/min per IP without a token, 60 with). The actor uses Apify Proxy to rotate IPs and backs off on rate limits; for large price-enriched runs, add a free token from discogs.com/settings/developers.
