The key-value store also holds:

• QUERIES - per query: the total number of results Alibaba reports, products collected, the filters applied, pages fetched, the last results page read (lastPageFetched), how many products of that page were left out to stay within maxResults (droppedFromLastPage), and the next page Alibaba has (hasMore, nextPage).
• ERRORS - queries that returned no products (no match for the filters, invalid filter, blocked) with the reason. These are not billed.

Pricing

$0.90 per 1000 products. You pay only for products delivered; failed queries are not charged.

Notes

• Search prices are in USD.
• Alibaba lists 48 products per results page. When maxResults ends inside a page, the rest of that page is left out (droppedFromLastPage in QUERIES); use a multiple of 48 to get whole pages.
• image is the full-size original, thumbnail a 300x300 version that loads fast in tables and spreadsheets.
• For the full product page (SKU variants, attributes, lead times per quantity, packaging, supplier ratings), run the companion Alibaba Product Scraper on the product URLs from this Actor.
• Alibaba stops paging a query after page 100; very broad queries return the first 480 products per run.
