Shopify Products Scraper: Full Catalogue from Any Store Domain

New: Clean $1-per-1,000-product catalogues, plus optional exact-inventory and deep-detail enrichment.

Extract complete public Shopify catalogues from one or more store domains with no API key, collection URLs, or browser.

Why use the Shopify Products Scraper?

Start from a store domain instead of collecting product or collection URLs. The actor paginates the public catalogue directly and returns normalized data for exports, dashboards, or downstream Actors.

What data does the Shopify Products Scraper extract?

Each row is one product. Standard rows omit premium-only fields completely; they are added only when Exact Inventory & Deep Details is selected and enrichment succeeds.

Fields	What they mean
store, productId, handle, title, vendor, url	Product identity, vendor, and canonical URL
featuredImage, imageUrls, imageCount, imageAltTexts, images	Image URLs plus IDs, dimensions, positions, linked variants, alt text, and timestamps
currency, priceMin, priceMax, compareAtPrice, onSale	ISO 4217 currency, lowest and highest variant price, highest compare-at price (or null), and whether any variant is discounted
available, fullyOutOfStock, requiresShipping	Catalogue availability and shipping flags
variantCount, variants, options, productOptions	Variant IDs, SKUs, named options, prices, weights, images, tax/shipping, and timestamps
productType, tags, description, descriptionHtml	Classification and product content
createdAt, publishedAt, updatedAt, runId	Lifecycle and optional pipeline metadata
Premium only	detailLevel, inventoryAccuracy, inventoryCount, exact variant inventory, policy/management, barcode/GTIN, quantity rules, selling plans, SEO, structured brand, and public metafields when available

What can you do with Shopify product data?

• Price monitoring: compare current, range, and compare-at prices across scheduled runs.
• Inventory tracking: monitor real variant quantities, stockouts, and restocks.
• Assortment analysis: compare brands, types, tags, variants, SKUs, options, and price bands.
• New product detection: diff scheduled datasets using product IDs and timestamps.

How do I scrape all products from a Shopify store?

1. Enter one or more store domains, such as gymshark.com or deathwishcoffee.com.
2. Set Max Products per store: 50 to test, 500 for a sample, or 0 for the full catalogue.
3. Select Exact Inventory & Deep Details for premium enrichment. It is free until September 23, 2026; afterward, only successfully enriched products add an Inventory Enrichment event.
4. Leave proxy disabled unless a store returns HTTP 403, then start the actor and export the dataset.

What input does the Shopify Products Scraper need?

{
  "domains": ["gymshark.com", "deathwishcoffee.com"],
  "maxProducts": 500,
  "includeInventoryDetails": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }
}

Field	Type	Default	Description
domains	Array	required	Shopify store domains. Accepts bare hostnames, full URLs, and Shopify-hosted domains.
maxProducts	Number	0	Maximum products per store. 0 means no limit.
includeInventoryDetails	Boolean	false	Adds exact public inventory and deep details. Free until September 23, 2026; afterward, only successful enrichments add an event.
proxyConfiguration	Object	disabled	Proxy settings. Enable Apify Proxy Residential only when a domain returns HTTP 403.
datasetId	String	optional	Existing Apify dataset ID to append rows to alongside the default dataset.
runId	String	optional	Parent run ID copied into each output row for pipeline traceability.

What does the output look like?

The actor returns one dataset item per product. This example has premium enrichment enabled; these premium keys are absent from standard rows.

How do I run the Shopify Products Scraper via API?

Trigger a run with curl:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/trovevault~shopify-products-scraper/runs" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"domains":["gymshark.com"],"maxProducts":500,"includeInventoryDetails":true}'

Run with the JavaScript client and read the dataset:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('trovevault~shopify-products-scraper').call({
    domains: ['gymshark.com'],
    maxProducts: 500,
    includeInventoryDetails: true,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.slice(0, 3));

You can also call the actor from any MCP-compatible AI assistant through the Apify MCP server.

How do I fix common Shopify scraping errors?

Issue	Solution
HTTP 403 or IP blocked	Enable Apify Proxy with the Residential group in proxyConfiguration. Large brands block datacenter IP ranges.
Store is not recognized or its catalogue is unavailable	The actor automatically checks compatible catalogue routes. If none work, confirm that the site runs on Shopify and exposes a public catalogue.
Fewer products than expected	Only the public storefront catalogue is exposed. Draft, hidden, password-protected, and wholesale-only products never appear.
Currency is null	Some stores restrict the public settings used to confirm currency. Product rows still return, but the currency remains unconfirmed.
Network errors or timeouts	Retry with a lower maxProducts, then enable the Residential proxy and check the run log.

FAQ

Does it return variant-level data? Yes. Standard rows include IDs, SKU, options, availability, prices, weight, images, tax/shipping, and timestamps. Premium enrichment adds exact inventory, barcode/GTIN, inventory policy, quantity rules, and selling plans.

Can I scrape several stores at once? Yes. Add multiple domains to domains; each row includes the store field.

Can I append output to an existing dataset? Yes. Pass datasetId to append rows to an existing dataset, and runId to link rows to a parent pipeline run.

Is scraping Shopify product data legal? The actor requests public storefront endpoints. Accessing public data is generally lawful, but review the target site's terms and your use case.

What are the limitations of the Shopify Products Scraper?

• Variant and SKU details are nested in each product row, not emitted as separate rows.
• Only public Shopify catalogue data is returned; headless, password-protected, wholesale, or restricted stores may not expose a compatible public catalogue.
• Exact inventory and other premium fields require Exact Inventory & Deep Details. They are omitted—not filled with null—when the add-on is disabled or public detail data is unavailable. Unavailable enrichments are not charged.
• Premium enrichment uses throttled public product requests and retries rate limits, so it is slower than standard catalogue mode. Exact inventory is store-wide, not location-level.
• Status, publication scope, template suffix, and most metafields are not public; absent values are omitted. Metafields commonly require Storefront API token access.
• compareAtPrice appears only when the merchant sets compare-at pricing, and currency may be null when the store does not expose enough public settings to confirm it.
• The actor does not crawl non-Shopify platforms such as WooCommerce, Magento, BigCommerce, or Amazon.
