## Pricing

from $5.99 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Amazon Search & Product Scraper

This actor extracts **Amazon product data** based on one or more search keywords.  
It uses a **two‑stage crawling approach** to balance **speed, reliability, and data completeness**.

- Search result pages are crawled to **discover ASINs**
- Individual product pages are crawled to **extract detailed product information**
- Built with **Playwright**, session pooling, and residential proxies for Amazon stability

---

### Key Capabilities

- Multiple search keywords in a single run
- Automatic pagination of search results
- Configurable maximum results per keyword
- Full product‑level data extraction
- Supports products **with or without ratings/reviews**
- Safe seller extraction using **verify logic (no waiting for optional elements)**
- Retry strategy:
  - **Search pages:** up to 5 retries
  - **Product pages:** 1 retry
- Session pooling + residential proxies for reduced blocking

---

### Input Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|--------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| search_strings | Array | Yes | – | Keywords to search on Amazon |
| max_results | Number | No | 5 | Maximum number of products per keyword |
| domain_code | String | No | `in` | Amazon domain (in, com, co.uk, etc.) |
| sort_by | String | No | relevanceblender | Amazon sort option |
| proxyConfiguration | Object | No | Apify Residential | Proxy configuration |

---

### Input Example

```json
{
  "search_strings": ["luggage bag", "school backpack"],
  "max_results": 10,
  "domain_code": "in",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "countryCode": "IN"
  }
}
````

#### Notes

- Each keyword is processed independently
- Pagination continues automatically until enough ASINs are discovered
- Product crawling stops once `max_results` is reached
- Product pages are fetched individually for accuracy

***

### Output Schema

Each dataset item represents **one Amazon product**.

#### Output Fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| search\_keyword | String | Keyword used for discovery |
| asin | String | Amazon Standard Identification Number |
| title | String | Product title |
| brand | String | null | Brand name |
| price | String | null | Selling price |
| mrp | String | null | Maximum retail price |
| rating | Number | null | Average customer rating |
| reviews\_count | Number | null | Number of reviews |
| features | Array | Bullet‑point product features |
| images | Array | High‑resolution product image URLs |
| seller\_name | String | null | Seller name |
| seller\_type | String | Amazon / Third Party |
| seller\_profile\_url | String | null | Seller profile link |
| product\_url | String | Amazon product page URL |

***

### Output Example

```json
{
  "search_keyword": "luggage bag",
  "asin": "B0F1FPWF8N",
  "title": "Skybags Brat Polycarbonate 65 cms Check‑in Luggage",
  "brand": "Skybags",
  "price": "₹5,499",
  "mrp": "₹9,999",
  "rating": 4.2,
  "reviews_count": 1384,
  "features": [
    "Polycarbonate hard shell",
    "4 smooth spinner wheels",
    "TSA lock"
  ],
  "images": [
    "https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81abc123_SX1000_.jpg"
  ],
  "seller_name": "Amazon Retail",
  "seller_type": "Amazon",
  "seller_profile_url": "https://www.amazon.in/sp?seller=A1XYZ",
  "product_url": "https://www.amazon.in/dp/B0F1FPWF8N"
}
```

***

### Recommended Proxy Setup

For Amazon scraping, **Residential proxies** are strongly recommended.

```json
{
  "useApifyProxy": true,
  "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
  "countryCode": "IN"
}
```

- Match proxy country with Amazon domain
- Keep Playwright concurrency ≤ 3 for stability

***

### Limitations

- Amazon DOM structure may change over time
- Prices, sellers, and availability can vary by user/location
- Some products may not have ratings or reviews
- Excessive concurrency can trigger bot protection

***

### Troubleshooting Tips

1. Use residential proxies (avoid datacenter IPs)
2. Reduce `max_results` if timeouts occur
3. Avoid extremely generic keywords
4. Check Actor logs for blocked pages
