Chemist Warehouse Scraper

Scrapes public Chemist Warehouse Australia product data from product URLs, category or brand pages, and search queries. Provide at least one target input for a data run; the empty default input is intentionally a fast lifecycle health check because the target may intermittently return anti-bot challenges.

Input examples

{
  "searchQueries": ["Blackmores", "vitamin C"],
  "maxResults": 25
}

For the most reliable runs, pass direct product URLs in productUrls. Category pages and searches are used only to discover /buy/<id>/... product links.

Output

Each dataset row contains the product ID, title, brand, URL, images, current price, currency, RRP when visible, savings text, availability, description, breadcrumbs, and scrape timestamp. Results are deduplicated and validated before being written. A SUMMARY key-value record contains counts and warnings.

Pricing

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.005 per GB of allocated memory, minimum one event
Validated product record	$0.01 per product

The actor does not charge for blocked, malformed, or schema-invalid results. If all requests are blocked by an anti-bot challenge, the run fails with an actionable diagnostic instead of returning fabricated data.

Use only for data you are authorized to access and in accordance with Chemist Warehouse terms and applicable law.
