Amazon Products Crawler (Fast & Simple)

A lightweight actor that scrapes structured product data from Amazon product pages. Provide product URLs, and it returns detailed information in JSON format.

Overview

This actor extracts product details directly from Amazon product pages. It's built for speed and reliability, using HTTP requests instead of a full browser. You can use it for price monitoring, catalog building, or competitive analysis.

Key Features

• Fast & Lightweight: Uses HTTP scraping, avoiding the overhead of Playwright or headless browsers.
• Structured Output: Returns clean, consistent JSON data with fields in camelCase.
• Proxy-Optimized: Integrates with Apify's residential proxies to avoid blocks and fetch region-specific data.
• Simple Input: Just provide Amazon product URLs.
• Global Support: Works with Amazon domains worldwide (.com, .de, .co.uk, etc.).

How to Use

1. Configure Input: Add your target Amazon product URLs to the startUrls array in the input. Optionally set language and proxyCountry.
2. Run the Actor: Start the run on the Apify platform.
3. Get Results: Retrieve the structured JSON data from the Dataset tab or via the API.

Example Input

{
  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09X7MPX8L" }
  ],
  "language": "en",
  "proxyCountry": "US"
}

• proxyCountry: Use "AUTO_SELECT_PROXY_COUNTRY" for auto-detection or a country code like "US", "DE", or "IL" for location-specific results.
