Collect a Patreon creator’s public shop or extract selected product URLs, with one product per dataset row. Patreon Shop Scraper returns names, descriptions, prices with currencies, dates, product types, previews and available file metadata.
Build a digital-product catalog or compare the public offers of selected creators. Direct product inputs use the same schema and can be collected without paginating the entire shop.
| At a glance | Details |
|---|---|
| 📥 Input | Enter creator names, creator/Shop URLs or direct /creator/shop/title-productID URLs. Numeric inputs are product IDs. Purchased file downloads are not collected. |
| 📤 Output | One product per success row with the input source retained |
| 📄 Pagination | Result pages per input; page sizes and availability are controlled by Patreon |
| 🔐 Login required | No |
| ⚡ Processing | Up to 5 HTTP requests concurrently; up to 5 attempts for temporary failures |
| 💾 Delivery | One Apify dataset view with individual records and complete nested JSON |
What the Patreon shop scraper collects 🛍️
The Actor reads public shop product records and follows pagination for creator-shop inputs. It keeps preview media and the available metadata of a product’s contents nested inside the product row.
Data can include:
- Product ID, canonical URL, name and descriptive text
- Price in minor units with the source currency code
- Publication date, content type and featured or discount fields when supplied
- Creator, linked post or collection references
- Public previews and available file names, types and sizes
How to collect shop products from Patreon 🚀
- Enter one or more supported inputs.
- Set the page budget and any collection option you need.
- Start the Actor.
- Open the Products dataset view and review success or failed rows.
- Export the dataset or retrieve records from your application.
The page setting applies separately to each creator’s shop. A direct supported product URL is an individual lookup; product files and previews do not create extra rows.

Nested field structure:
previews[]:id,media_type,file_name,mime_type,size_bytes,state,url,download_url,width,height,duration_seconds,thumbnail_url,image_versions.previews[].image_versions[]:name,url.content_files[]:id,media_type,file_name,mime_type,size_bytes,state,url,download_url,width,height,duration_seconds,thumbnail_url,image_versions.content_files[].image_versions[]:name,url.creator:id,name,url,avatar_url,currency.
The examples below use normalized public response data. Values are snapshots and may change; every top-level output field is included. Different media variants and nested objects remain inside the same row.
Complete representative success result:
Complete direct-product result:
Complete failed dataset item:
A failed row preserves input, sets status to failed, and sets every other top-level field to null. The reason is written to the run log. Optional successful values remain null or empty when Patreon omits them. The single dataset view exposes object fields as useful columns; arrays are kept in their parent row rather than expanded into additional rows or views.
Input and pagination settings ⚙️
| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Rules |
|---|---|---|---|---|
inputList | array of strings | Yes | None | Enter creator names, creator/Shop URLs or direct /creator/shop/title-productID URLs. Numeric inputs are product IDs. Purchased file downloads are not collected. |
pagesPerCreator | integer | No | 1 | Maximum result pages per input. Preparation requests do not count. Ignored for a direct collection or product detail input. Minimum 1. |
Enter supported creator-shop inputs or direct Patreon /shop/ product URLs. A /posts/ URL contains a post ID rather than a shop product ID and belongs to Post Scraper.
Use supported Patreon paths on www.patreon.com or patreon.com. HTTPS is required for full URLs; those two hosts can also be entered without the scheme. URLs with credentials, custom ports or unsupported paths are not accepted. A leading @ is accepted for plain creator names; names are normalized. Canonical creator URLs and supported /c/ or /cw/ creator paths are accepted. A numeric input means a product ID, not a campaign or post ID.
Duplicate normalized inputs are processed once. A returned identifier is deduplicated within the pagination of one source input; the same object found under different source inputs retains each source relationship.
The first result request counts as page 1. Source validation and preparation requests do not consume result pages. A short or filtered page can continue if it supplies a usable cursor. Collection stops at the page budget or the end of pagination; a repeated cursor does not trigger an endless loop. A direct product lookup ignores the list-page budget and returns the individual target in the same view.
Patreon shop products use cases 🎯
Digital product catalogs
Export product names, descriptions, prices, currencies and source links from selected shops. Keep product variants and related content identifiers clear.
Public offer snapshots
Repeat collection and compare observed prices or available discount fields in your own database. The Actor does not predict sales or verify purchase completion.
Product reference enrichment
Resolve selected product URLs into structured descriptions, preview references and available file metadata without collecting every shop item.
Pricing and saved-result behavior 💰
Check the Actor’s Pricing tab for the active charging model and current rate. Store settings may change, so this README does not state an unverified fixed price or runtime.
Under dataset-item pricing:
- Each unique success result represents one product for its source input.
- An invalid or unavailable input, an input with no accessible results, or a request that exhausts retries can produce a
failedrow. - Retry attempts and supporting metadata requests do not create extra dataset rows by themselves.
- Nested media, tiers, poll choices and source fields stay inside their parent result when relevant.
- A normal empty continuation after earlier successes creates no additional result row.
- Saved failed rows are not assumed to be free. Check the active pricing configuration for their treatment.
Larger page budgets and more inputs can produce more saved rows. Start with a small run and check actual usage before increasing the workload.
Patreon shop products API 🔌
Replace $ACTOR_ID with the identifier shown in this Actor’s API tab and $APIFY_TOKEN with your Apify token.
Download JSON, CSV, Excel, XML or other formats available in the Console, or retrieve the dataset through the Apify API. Schedules, webhooks and Apify integrations can connect results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n, cloud storage or your own backend. These are connection options rather than integrations already configured by the Actor.
Reliability, retries, and public-data limits ⚠️
Collection uses pure HTTP with up to five concurrent requests. Invalid syntax and confirmed missing, removed or inaccessible targets stop without unnecessary retries. Temporary network or proxy failures, timeouts, blocking responses, malformed data, throttling and server errors are retried up to five total attempts per request.
Earlier successful pages remain saved when a later request fails. A normal end after previously saved results is not retried. An input that produces no accessible results can receive a failed row; this does not by itself prove the underlying account or collection does not exist. A later exhausted request can append a failed row while keeping earlier output.
Patreon controls public availability, ranking, fields and pagination. Private, deleted, restricted or otherwise unavailable data can be omitted. Counts can change during collection, and media links can expire. Successful HTTP research confirms the supported request paths and pagination on tested sources, rather than future availability or exhaustive coverage.
Public product records do not grant access to purchased files. Protected content may provide file metadata without a download URL; previews remain separate. Prices and availability can change, and a listed price does not establish sales or revenue. Media files are not downloaded.
An invalid string within a valid input list does not stop other inputs. A configuration that fails validation, such as a non-string list item or an invalid page-count type, exits before requests start. Infrastructure errors such as startup failure, unavailable dataset storage or an unrecoverable result-save error can stop the whole run. A failed dataset save is not retried as a new scraping request.
Frequently asked questions ❓
Can I collect one product instead of an entire shop?
Yes. Submit a supported direct /shop/ product URL. It returns one product record in the same schema as the shop feed.
Does it download purchased products?
No. The Actor collects public product details and previews. Protected file URLs remain unavailable when the guest response does not expose them.
Can shop products be Patreon posts?
Yes. Some product records link to posts or collections. The product ID and linked post ID are different and are retained as separate references.
Does it require Patreon login or personal cookies?
No. The Actor uses HTTP requests from the public website. It does not require a Patreon account, password or personal session cookie, and does not launch a browser.
What happens to invalid or unavailable inputs?
Invalid individual inputs are saved as failed rows without a source request. Confirmed unavailable targets stop without unnecessary retries. Temporary failures allow up to five total attempts; other inputs and previously saved results remain available.
Can I export results or schedule runs?
Yes. Download the default dataset in supported formats or retrieve it through the Apify API. Apify schedules and completion webhooks can connect repeated runs to your own workflow.
