Chrome Web Store Scraper
Export public Chrome extension metadata from category and main detail pages as JSON, CSV, or Excel. The Actor stays off disallowed search, review, privacy, support, report, related, and preview routes while collecting the commercial and security-research signals visible on each main listing.
What you get
- Extension ID, name, description, type, categories, icon, canonical URL, and screenshots
- Users, average rating, rating count, version, update date, package size, and languages
- Developer identity, public website or email when displayed, trader status, and privacy summary
- Featured and recommended-practices badges plus category provenance
Output fields
Common fields are extensionId, name, extensionUrl, description, iconUrl, extensionType, categories, rating, ratingsCount, users, version, updated, size, languages, languagesSummary, developer, developerWebsite, developerEmail, traderStatus, privacyDisclosure, featured, followsRecommendedPractices, screenshots, categoryUrl, and source.
Example output
{"extensionId":"aapbdbdomjkkjkaonfhkkikfgjllcleb","name":"Google Translate","users":30000000,"rating":4.2,"ratingsCount":44800,"version":"2.0.17","developer":"Google Ireland, Ltd.","extensionUrl":"https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/google-translate/aapbdbdomjkkjkaonfhkkikfgjllcleb"}
Input parameters
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
categoryUrls | Public Chrome Web Store category URLs. |
extensionUrls | Optional public main extension-detail URLs. |
maxResults | Maximum unique extension records saved and charged. |
Use cases
Browser-extension market research, enterprise extension inventories, popularity monitoring, developer sourcing, version-change alerts, privacy-review queues, category benchmarking, acquisition research, and extension ecosystem analysis.
Limitations
The Actor intentionally does not access the disallowed /search route or listing subroutes. Privacy text is a publisher disclosure, not an independent security assessment. User and rating counts are rounded as displayed, and category pages can include editorial or featured placement.
Compared to alternatives
Thirdwatch makes allowed route boundaries explicit, extracts rich main-page evidence, and uses a low-cost HTTP runtime at $0.005 base PPE. Start with the Chrome Web Store Scraper, browse all Thirdwatch Actors, or read the Chrome extension-intelligence guide.
FAQ
Why is keyword search not supported? Chrome's current robots policy disallows /search; use allowed categories or exact main extension URLs.
Does it download extension packages? No. It exports public listing metadata and evidence URLs only.
