AliExpress Products Scraper

AliExpress Products Scraper: search results with prices, ratings and order counts

Type a search term and get the AliExpress listings back as rows. Product ID, title, canonical link, current price, the old price where there is a real markdown, star rating, lifetime order count, the image and the Choice badge.

It reads search listings and stops there. It does not open individual product pages, so there is no seller name, no review text and no shipping cost in the output.

🔍 What AliExpress Products Scraper does

You give it terms like phone case or wireless earbuds. It walks the search listings 20 products at a time and writes a row for each one, until it has the number you asked for or the term runs out.

Every price in one currency. AliExpress decides the display currency on its own, and left alone a single dataset can come back with some rows in USD and some in EUR with nothing on the row saying which. Setting currency pins it for the whole run, so price means one thing when you sort or total the file. There is a currency field on every row so you never have to remember what you picked.

Results reshuffle as you page through them, which is AliExpress's doing. Rows are deduplicated on productId as they arrive, so maxItems means unique products and not raw cards seen.

📥 What you give it

{
  "searchQueries": ["phone case", "wireless earbuds"],
  "maxItems": 1000,
  "currency": "USD",
  "country": "US"
}

Run it with no input at all and you get one labelled sample row, so you can see the shape before committing to a list.

🧾 Reading the output

A diagnostic row tells you what happened to one search term:

▶️ How to run it

1. Open AliExpress Products Scraper and click Try for free. 2. Type your terms into Search terms, one per line. 3. Set Maximum products. Start at 40 to see the shape of the output. 4. Pick a Sort by, Currency, Ship-to country or Language if the defaults do not suit you, then click Start. 5. Download the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it from the Apify API.

💰 How much does it cost?

$0.12 per 1,000 products. Flat on every Apify plan, no volume tiers.

You pay per product row. The sample row is not charged, diagnostic rows are not charged, and the same product appearing again on a later page is dropped before it becomes a row.

💡 What people use it for

• Sizing a niche before sourcing it: pull 1,000 rows for a term and look at where price clusters

and how far orders runs.

• Finding what actually sells rather than what ranks, by sorting on orders instead of on position.
• Watching a term weekly and joining on productId to see which listings appeared, which moved up

and which quietly changed price.

• Filtering isAd out to see the organic ranking on its own, or keeping only isAd rows to see who

is paying for that term.

• Pulling a competitor's whole category into a sheet in one currency so the totals mean something.

🚧 What it does not do

• Search listings only. No product pages, which means no description, no specifications, no

variants and no SKU-level prices.

• No seller or store fields. AliExpress took store name, seller ID and seller country off its

search cards, so there is no column rather than a column that is always empty.

• No review text and no shipping cost. Both live on the product page.
• The sort is per page, not strict across pages. With sortBy set, every page of 20 comes back

in that order, but page 2 can start above where page 1 ended. Sort the dataset yourself if you need one exact order.

• orders is lifetime, not recent. A listing from 2019 with 18,000 orders is not necessarily

selling today.

• Paid placements are mixed in, around a fifth to a quarter of rows. They are flagged isAd.
• A term can stop early. When AliExpress stops answering for a page, the run ends that term with

a BLOCKED row and keeps everything already delivered.

• Prices are what AliExpress shows for your ship-to country, before any coupon, and they move

constantly. scrapedAt records when the row was read.

🧭 Which marketplace scraper do you need?

❓ Questions people ask

Do I need an AliExpress account or an API key? No. Everything here is public search data.

Why are my prices in the wrong currency? They will not be if you set Currency. It is pinned for the whole run and echoed on every row.

Can I paste a product link? No. productUrls takes search URLs and reads the keyword out of them. An item page comes back as BAD_INPUT.

Why is originalPrice empty on so many rows? Because most listings are not on a markdown. A blank is the honest answer there.

How deep can one search term go? As deep as maxItems lets it. The limit is your setting, not a page number.

Is scraping AliExpress legal? These are public listings. Check AliExpress's terms and your own local rules before using the output commercially. Apify's write-up on scraping and the law is a good starting point, and we are not lawyers.

🆘 If something breaks

Open the Issues tab on the actor page. Send the search term and the run ID. If you got a diagnostic row, its status usually names the problem on its own.
