VS Code Marketplace Scraper — Extension Intelligence 🧩

Search the Visual Studio Code Marketplace — or look up any extensions by id — and get clean records with installs, downloads, ratings, trending scores, categories, latest version, repository and pricing. No API key.

The Marketplace is backed by the same public gallery API the VS Code app uses. This Actor turns it into structured extension-market intelligence — perfect for dev-tool market research, competitor tracking, trend discovery and datasets.

What you get per extension

extension_id · name · display_name · publisher · publisher_display_name · verified_publisher · short_description · installs · updates · downloads · average_rating · weighted_rating · rating_count · trending_daily / trending_weekly / trending_monthly · categories · tags · version · last_updated · published_date · release_date · repository · pricing · marketplace_url.

Examples

Top extensions for a search term

{ "mode": "search", "searchText": "python", "sortBy": "installs", "maxResults": 100 }

Trending / recently updated in a category

{ "mode": "search", "category": "Machine Learning", "sortBy": "updated", "maxResults": 50 }

Look up specific extensions

{ "mode": "extensions", "extensionIds": ["ms-python.python", "esbenp.prettier-vscode"] }

Use cases

Dev-tool market research — install/rating leaders per category and search term.
Competitor & trend tracking — trending scores and update recency over time.
Datasets & dashboards — a clean, structured slice of the extension ecosystem.
