## Pricing

from $3.88 / 1,000 listings

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Etsy Listings Scraper — Prices, Reviews, Shops | from $1.50/1K | No API Key

Built for Etsy sellers doing competitor research, e-commerce analysts tracking pricing trends, and dropshippers validating handmade/supply niches.

**Pricing:** Pay per listing — $1.50/1K. First results are free to try.

**No API key, no setup.** Just give a search keyword and/or a shop name — the actor reads the same public listing data that etsy.com shows in search results and on shop pages.

### What you get

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `listing_id` | Numeric Etsy listing ID |
| `title` | Listing title |
| `url` | Full listing URL on etsy.com (tracking params stripped) |
| `price` | Current price (float) |
| `original_price` | Strikethrough / list price on discounted listings |
| `on_sale` | `true` when the listing is discounted |
| `currency` | ISO 4217 currency code (e.g. USD, EUR, GBP) |
| `image_url` | Full-resolution listing image |
| `rating` | Star rating (0–5) |
| `review_count` | Number of reviews |
| `shop_id` | Numeric shop ID |
| `shop_name` | Shop name (when exposed on the page) |
| `shop_url` | Shop page URL |
| `is_ad` | Whether the listing is a promoted/ad slot |
| `free_shipping` | Free-shipping badge (best-effort) |
| `availability` | Stock status (e.g. `InStock`, when exposed) |
| `position` | Rank within the result set |
| `search_query` / `shop_filter` | Which input produced the row |
| `page_number` | Result page the row came from |
| `scraped_at` | ISO 8601 timestamp of this scrape |
| `parse_confidence` | Data-quality score 0–1 |
| `warnings` | Array of field-level quality warnings |

### Input

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `searchKeywords` | string | No\* | Keyword search across all of Etsy (e.g. "handmade soy candle") |
| `shopName` | string | No\* | Etsy shop name or URL to list one shop's items (e.g. "CitrineAndCo") |
| `maxItems` | integer | No | Max listings (default 100, 0 = unlimited) |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | No | Apify Residential proxy (country US recommended) |

\* At least one of `searchKeywords` or `shopName` is required. You can use both.

#### Example inputs

**Search listings:**

```json
{
  "searchKeywords": "handmade soy candle",
  "maxItems": 200,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"], "apifyProxyCountry": "US" }
}
```

**List a single shop:**

```json
{
  "shopName": "CitrineAndCo",
  "maxItems": 500
}
```

### How it works

- **Keyword search:** reads `etsy.com/search?q=<keywords>`, page by page.
- **Shop listing:** reads `etsy.com/shop/<shopName>`, page by page.
- Both modes can run together (deduplicated by `listing_id`).
- Listing data is read from the page's structured listing cards plus the embedded `ItemList` metadata, so fields stay stable across cosmetic layout changes.

### Access & reliability

Etsy is a protected target — it requires a residential proxy for reliable access, and datacenter IPs are not reliable. This actor reaches the site with a resilient browser tier over Apify Residential that handles the site's challenge step automatically, with a managed-access service wired in as a backstop. You do **not** need any external proxy or browser account — everything runs on your own Apify account.

Every record ships a `parse_confidence` score (0.0–1.0), so your pipeline detects layout drift early — before buyers complain.

### Monetization

Pay-per-result (PPE): charged per listing returned. No charge for failed runs.

| Volume | Cost |
|---|---|
| 100 listings | $0.15 |
| 1,000 listings | $1.50 |
| 10,000 listings | $15.00 |

### Integrations

The JSON/dataset output drops into the tools you already run, no glue code:

- **n8n / Make / Zapier** — pipe every new dataset item into 500+ apps: [n8n](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/n8n), [Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make), [Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier).
- **Webhooks** — fire your own endpoint the moment a run finishes ([docs](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)).
- **MCP server** — expose this actor as a tool to Claude, Cursor, or any [MCP client](https://mcp.apify.com) ([guide](https://blog.apify.com/how-to-use-mcp/)).
- **API & SDKs** — fetch the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel through the Apify REST API or the Python / JS SDKs.

See all [Apify integrations](https://apify.com/integrations).

### FAQ

**Do I need an Etsy API key?**
No. Just provide a search keyword and/or shop name — there's nothing to register.

**What if a run returns empty?**
If `searchKeywords` returns no results, try a broader term. If a shop has no active listings, `shopName` returns nothing. For the most reliable access, keep the Apify Residential (US) proxy enabled.

**What output formats are available?**
JSON (default), CSV, and Excel — via the Apify dataset export or API.

### Not affiliated with Etsy

# Actor input Schema

## `searchKeywords` (type: `string`):

Keyword or phrase to search across all Etsy shops (e.g. 'handmade soy candle', 'vintage ring'). Provide this and/or a Shop name below.

## `shopName` (type: `string`):

Etsy shop name to list a single shop's items (e.g. 'CitrineAndCo'). You can paste a full shop URL too. Use instead of, or together with, search keywords.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum total listings to return across all pages. Set 0 for no limit. Default 100. Each page yields up to ~64 listings.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

REQUIRED. Etsy requires a residential proxy for reliable access — datacenter IPs are not reliable. Apify Residential (country US) gives the best pass rate. No external proxy account needed.
