iHerb Product Listings Scraper

Overview

This Actor scrapes product listings from iHerb search and category pages. You provide URLs (including those with filters or sorting applied), and it extracts structured product data, handling pagination automatically. Output is formatted for analytics, monitoring, or integration into data pipelines.

Key Features

• Flexible URL Input: Works with any iHerb listing URL—keyword searches, category pages, or results filtered by brand, price, rating, etc.
• Automatic Pagination: Follows "next page" links until the desired number of products is collected.
• Per-URL Limits: Configurable maximum number of products to extract for each input URL.
• Rich Data Extraction: Captures pricing, ratings, availability, brand info, images, and more.
• Structured Output: Exports data as a dataset in JSON or table formats for easy download.

How to Use

Configure the Actor with a JSON input containing your target URLs and an optional product limit.
