Tips for Best Results

Prioritize Fast Mode

• Use the default settings for the fastest runs.
• Increase results_wanted gradually to estimate runtime for your category.

Use Stable Listing URLs

• Prefer category and search URLs that show normal product listings.
• Validate that the URL opens product cards in your browser before running.

Scale Safely

• Use residential proxies for larger runs and stricter categories.
• Keep request volume realistic for the target category depth.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it paginate until my requested count?

Yes. The actor paginates listing pages to reach results_wanted when enough products are available.

Which mode is fastest?

The actor runs in an optimized fast mode by default and is recommended for bulk extraction.

Can available fields vary by category?

Yes. Some fields depend on what each listing exposes, so certain attributes may be null in some categories.

Why are some fields null?

Some products or listings do not expose every field consistently. Null values are expected in such cases.

Can I scrape search URLs and category URLs?

Yes. Both are supported as long as they return product listing pages.

How many products can I collect?

You can request large volumes; practical limits depend on page availability, category depth, and runtime constraints.
