Automate and integrate your results

• Schedule runs daily or weekly from the Apify Schedules tab, or create one schedule per search term or category.
• Webhooks can notify Slack, Zapier, or your warehouse when a run succeeds.
• Connect results to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, a CRM, or cloud storage.

How much does it cost to scrape Lidl?

Lidl Product Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing. You are billed per result you receive.

• dataset-item — $1 per 1,000 product rows written to the dataset.
• product-details — $2 per 1,000 products enriched when fetchProductDetails is enabled.

A listing-only run charges only the dataset-item event. With details enabled, a row charges dataset-item plus product-details when enrichment succeeds ($3 per 1,000 combined). Apify subscription-plan discounts apply automatically. A small one-time apify-actor-start event ($0.00005) is also billed per run.

Reliability and responsible use

• Residential proxies are enabled by default for reliable collection.
• Detail fields are conditional; some pages may not return descriptions, EANs, or variants.
• Country detection is automatic from URL hosts; countryCode is used for search queries.
• Collection is intended for public product data within your lawful-use scope; you remain responsible for complying with the site's terms.

Frequently asked questions

Can I collect full product details?

Yes. Enable fetchProductDetails to add descriptions, EANs, variants, delivery info, energy labels, and media. Enriched rows are billed under a separate product-details event.

Which Lidl countries are supported?

The Actor covers 16 Lidl country shops, including Germany, France, Spain, and the UK. For search queries, set countryCode; for URLs, the host is detected automatically.

What counts as one result?

Each product row written to the dataset counts as one dataset-item result. Rows enriched with details also trigger product-details.

Why are some fields empty?

Detail fields depend on the product page returning them. If a page omits a field, that field is left empty rather than invented.

How do I avoid duplicate records?

Key your pipeline on erpNumber plus countryCode. Use maxItems to cap output during testing.

Can I search and use URLs together?

Yes. The Actor processes search queries and start URLs in the same run.
