Scrape products from Meesho by keyword search or category browse using the reverse-engineered internal Android API. No browser required — pure API calls for maximum speed and reliability.

Features

• Search mode — find products by keyword (e.g. saree, kurti, lehenga)
• Category mode — browse all products in a category by ID
• Fetch categories — list all available categories with their IDs
• Optional buyer reviews per product
• Configurable pagination, sorting, and request delays
• Structured output compatible with the Apify dataset viewer

Input

Sample Input

{
"mode":"search",
"query":"kurti",
"limit":20,
"max_pages":3,
"sort_option":"POPULARITY",
"include_reviews":false
}

Output

Each dataset item represents one product:

{
"catalog_id":12345678,
"name":"Women Printed Rayon Kurti",
"price":599,
"original_price":1299,
"discount":53.89,
"image_url":"https://...",
"images":["https://..."],
"supplier_id":98765,
"supplier_name":"Supplier XYZ",
"rating":4.2,
"reviews_count":234,
"category":"Kurtis",
"url":"https://www.meesho.com/product/12345678",
"fetched_at":"2026-05-02T10:00:00+00:00",
"reviews":[]
}

In fetch_categories mode each item is:

{
"id":1234,
"name":"Kurtis",
"section_name":"Women",
"group_name":"Ethnic Wear",
"image_url":"https://..."
}

Usage Tips

1. Run fetch_categories first to discover valid category_id values.
2. Increase delay_between_requests (e.g. to 800–1200 ms) if you hit rate limits.
3. include_reviews=true adds one extra API call per product — use max_pages=1 for quick tests.

Technical Notes

• Uses the Meesho Android API (prod.meeshoapi.com) with a static API key baked into the app.
• TLS fingerprint is spoofed via curl_cffi (Chrome 120 profile) to bypass Akamai Bot Manager.
• No Apify Proxy is used; connections are direct by default.
