What Is Mecca.com?

Mecca is one of the Asia-Pacific region's most prominent prestige beauty retailers, operating across Australia, New Zealand, and other markets under mecca.com. Its catalog spans thousands of skincare, makeup, fragrance, and wellness products from both global luxury and independent brands. Manually gathering product data across categories and paginated search results is tedious and error-prone — the Mecca.com Products Search Scraper automates this entirely, turning category and search pages into clean, structured datasets ready for analysis or integration.

Overview

The Mecca Products Scraper is designed to extract product listing data from Mecca.com category pages, search result pages, and filtered collections — across all supported country sites (e.g., en-au, en-nz). It processes paginated URLs and returns up to hundreds of product records per run.

Ideal for:

• Beauty retail analysts monitoring pricing and assortment changes
• E-commerce teams benchmarking product ranges against competitors
• Price intelligence tools tracking promotional and sale flags
• Researchers studying beauty brand distribution and availability

Key strengths: configurable item limits, fault-tolerant URL handling, and rich per-product output including promotional flags, variant data, and stock status.

Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object with the following fields:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.mecca.com/en-au/fragrance/?page=2"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 200
}

Field Definitions

Field	Type	Default	Description
urls	array	—	One or more URLs pointing to Mecca.com product search or category listing pages. Supports paginated URLs (e.g., ?page=2). Add URLs one by one or paste a prepared list using Bulk Edit mode.
ignore_url_failures	boolean	true	When set to true, the scraper continues running even if individual URLs fail to load or return no data. Recommended for bulk runs.
max_items_per_url	integer	20	Maximum number of product records to collect per URL. Increase up to 200 or more for full-category extraction.

Input Tips

• Supported URL formats: Category pages (/fragrance/), brand pages (/brands/chanel/), and search result pages (/search/?q=toner) are all valid inputs.
• Pagination: To scrape multiple pages of a category, add each paginated URL separately (e.g., ?page=1, ?page=2, ?page=3).
• Country sites: Specify the locale in the URL path — en-au for Australia, en-nz for New Zealand, etc.
• Bulk runs: Set ignore_url_failures: true to prevent a single broken URL from halting the entire job.

How to Use

1. Select your target pages — Navigate to Mecca.com and open the category, brand, or search results page you want to scrape. Copy the full URL including any filters or pagination parameters.
2. Configure the input — Paste your URLs into the urls array. Set max_items_per_url based on how many products you expect per page (typically 24–48 per page; increase for full extraction).
3. Set fault tolerance — Keep ignore_url_failures: true for multi-URL runs to avoid interruptions from occasional load failures.
4. Run the scraper — Start the actor and monitor progress in the run log.
5. Export your data — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for use in spreadsheets, databases, or BI dashboards.

Best practices:

• For full category extraction, generate paginated URLs programmatically (?page=1 through ?page=N) and paste all into the urls field.
• Use locale-specific URLs (en-au, en-nz) to ensure pricing and availability data reflects the correct market.
• If Item Stock Status returns inconsistently, re-run with a fresh proxy session.
