It has two run modes. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## Alibaba Product Scraper Scrape **full Alibaba.com product pages** as clean structured JSON - title, categories, images and videos, **price tiers per quantity** (local currency and USD), minimum order (MOQ) and unit, **SKU variants**, product attributes, **lead time per quantity**, packaging, shipping origin, Trade Assurance and the complete **supplier card** (location, business type, years on Alibaba, Gold Supplier, verified-by, rating, reviews, response time, on-time delivery rate, revenue band, main markets). Many products in one run. No Alibaba account, no API key, no proxies to configure. ### Features - **Any product input** - a www.alibaba.com product URL, a language-site or m.alibaba.com link, or the bare numeric product id. - **Wholesale pricing** - every quantity tier with its price, in the page's currency and in USD. - **Variants** - option groups (color, size...) with their images, and every SKU with its options and, where the supplier sets them, its own price (`skuPricing` says which). - **Specs** - full attribute list plus the key attributes Alibaba highlights. - **Logistics** - lead time per quantity range, packaging size and weight, shipping origin, trade term. - **Supplier due diligence** - verified-by (e.g. SGS, TUV), rating and reviews, response time, on-time delivery, revenue band, main markets, business type and year founded. - **Deduplicated** - the same product given twice (URL and id) is collected once. ### Use cases - **Sourcing and procurement** - compare tiers, MOQ and lead times of shortlisted products from different suppliers. - **Supplier vetting** - check verification, delivery performance and response times before reaching out. - **Catalog building** - pull titles, images, videos and specs into a product database or a dropshipping store. - **Price monitoring** - track tier prices and MOQ changes of the products you buy, on a schedule. - **Pairs with Alibaba Search Scraper** - search first, then enrich the product URLs it returns. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `products` | array | an example speaker | Alibaba product URLs or numeric product ids. | | `proxy_country` | string | - | Optional ISO-2 country to browse from (sets the page's local currency). | | `concurrency` | integer | `3` | Products fetched at the same time (1-5). | #### Example input ```json { "products": [ "https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Portable-Mini-Bluetooth-Wireless-Speakers-Outdoor_1601207586306.html", "1600916253877" ] } ``` ### Output One dataset item per product (lists shortened): ```json { "productId": "1601207586306", "url": "https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/_1601207586306.html", "title": "Portable Mini Bluetooth Wireless Speakers Outdoor Sports Waterproof Portable Subwoofer Super Bass Wireless BT Speaker", "categoryId": "518", "categories": ["Consumer Electronics", "Speakers & Accessories", "Speakers"], "images": ["https://sc04.alicdn.com/kf/H96bf8f906a7242c2a3a05b30d7c2c4act.jpg"], "videos": [{"url": "https://gv.videocdn.alibaba.com/...mp4", "cover": "https://sc04.alicdn.com/kf/H96bf8f906a7242c2a3a05b30d7c2c4act.jpg", "durationSeconds": 45}], "currency": "USD", "priceText": "$2.79-2.99", "priceMin": 2.79, "priceMax": 2.99, "priceMinUsd": 2.79, "priceMaxUsd": 2.99, "priceTiers": [ {"minQuantity": 2, "maxQuantity": 99, "price": 2.99, "priceUsd": 2.99, "priceText": "$2.99"}, {"minQuantity": 100, "maxQuantity": 999, "price": 2.95, "priceUsd": 2.95, "priceText": "$2.95"}, {"minQuantity": 100000, "maxQuantity": null, "price": 2.79, "priceUsd": 2.79, "priceText": "$2.79"} ], "moq": 2, "unit": "piece", "variants": { "attributes": [{"name": "color", "values": [{"name": "Black", "image": "https://sc04.alicdn.com/kf/Hac7d2c7a654b4ff5b93d844428978a0al.jpg"}]}], "skus": [{"skuId": "108964569065", "options": {"color": "Black"}, "price": null, "priceUsd": null, "priceText": null}], "skuPricing": "tiers" }, "attributes": [{"name": "bluetooth standard", "value": "Bluetooth v5.4"}, {"name": "channels", "value": "2 (2.0)"}], "leadTimes": [{"minQuantity": 1, "maxQuantity": 1000, "days": 7}, {"minQuantity": 1001, "maxQuantity": 10000, "days": 20}], "packaging": {"unitSize": "18X13X10", "unitWeight": "0.36", "port": null, "details": []}, "shipFrom": ["China"], "tradeAssurance": true, "tradeTerm": "FOB", "supplier": { "name": "Shenzhen Yuzhuo Technology Co., Ltd.", "url": "https://szyz.en.alibaba.com/index.html", "country": "CN", "location": "Shenzhen, Guangdong, CN", "yearsOnAlibaba": 13, "businessType": ["Trading Company"], "goldSupplier": true, "verified": true, "verifiedBy": "SGS Group", "rating": 4.4, "reviewsCount": 109, "responseTime": "≤6h", "onTimeDeliveryRate": "97.0%", "performance": {"Online revenue": "US$ 410,000+", "Year founded": "2013", "Main markets": "North America,Northern Europe,Eastern Asia"} }, "visitCountry": "US", "input": "1601207586306" } ``` The key-value store also holds `ERRORS` - products that could not be read (unknown or removed id, not a product URL, blocked) with the reason. These are **not billed**. ### Pricing **$1.50 per 1000 products.** You pay only for products delivered; failed products are not charged. ### Notes - Alibaba prices a product page in the visitor's local currency (`currency` as an ISO code, `priceText`, `priceMin`/`priceMax`, `price` on each tier), which can differ from run to run. The USD figures (`priceMinUsd`, `priceMaxUsd`, `priceUsd` on each tier) are the same on every run, so compare on those. - `variants.skuPricing` tells how variants are priced: `sku` - each SKU carries its own `price` / `priceUsd`; `tiers` - every SKU is priced by the product's `priceTiers` and the SKU prices are null. - Some listings are hidden in some countries; such a product is retried from a US visitor before it is reported as missing, and the item then carries a `warnings` note. # Actor input Schema ## `products` (type: `array`): Alibaba.com product URLs (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/\_.html, language sites and m.alibaba.com links work too) or numeric product ids (e.g. 1601207586306). One dataset item per product. ## `proxy_country` (type: `string`): ISO-2 country to browse Alibaba from. Alibaba prices a product page in the visitor's local currency; USD prices are always included. Leave empty - the service picks the exit itself. ## `concurrency` (type: `integer`): How many products to fetch at the same time (1-5). ## Actor input object example ```json { "products": [ "https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Portable-Mini-Bluetooth-Wireless-Speakers-Outdoor_1601207586306.html" ], "proxy_country": "", "concurrency": 3 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): One item per product with price tiers, variants, attributes and the supplier ## `errors` (type: `string`): Products that could not be read (unknown id, removed, bad URL, blocked), with the reason (not billed) # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/XzlwpkDcO6qzd7ofn/builds/3FOHftylZ5lFtrVTO/openapi.json
