🔎 Mercado Libre Search Scraper

Mercado Libre Search Scraper extracts product rows from Mercado Libre and Mercado Livre search results. Add search terms, search URLs, category URLs, or results-page URLs, then export product titles, prices, sellers, shipping text, ratings, images, ranks, source URLs, and delivery ZIP context.

Use it when you need repeatable marketplace data without opening result pages by hand. The Actor is built for ecommerce teams, sellers, agencies, marketplace analysts, and researchers who need clean product search data for price checks, assortment research, rank tracking, lead work, and recurring reports.

For the easiest first run, keep the prefilled iphone search, keep Mexico as the market, and run the Actor with the default product limit. Add a delivery ZIP or postal code when rankings, availability, or shipping promises should match a specific shopper location.

✅ What This Actor Does

This Mercado Libre scraper turns search and category result cards into an Apify dataset. It supports Mercado Libre country domains and Mercado Livre in Brazil.

You can scrape:

• Plain search terms, such as iphone, nike shoes, or air fryer
• Mercado Libre search URLs
• Mercado Livre search URLs from Brazil
• Mercado Libre category URLs
• Results-page URLs
• Mixed batches of search terms and URLs

For plain search terms, choose the market in the input form. For full Mercado Libre or Mercado Livre URLs, the Actor uses the country domain in the URL. Product detail URLs and homepages are handled as soft stops because this Actor is focused on search result cards, not item detail pages or general entry pages.

📦 Data You Can Extract

Each dataset item is one product card from Mercado Libre or Mercado Livre search results. Rows are flat, so they are ready for CSV, JSON, Excel, Google Sheets, the Apify API, webhooks, schedules, and dashboard workflows.

Fields can include:

• productId - Mercado Libre product or item ID when visible.
• title - product title from the search result card.
• url - product URL.
• searchRank and pageNumber - rank metadata for the requested target.
• sourceTarget and sourceUrl - the search term or URL that produced the row.
• country, site, postalCode, and currency - market and location context.
• currentPrice, previousPrice, and discountPercent - visible pricing data.
• installmentsText and shippingText - payment and delivery text shown on the card.
• sellerName and isOfficialStore - seller or official-store signals when shown.
• isSponsored - whether the result appears promoted or sponsored.
• rating and reviewCount - visible product rating data.
• imageUrl and categoryId - product image and category ID when available.
• scrapedAt - UTC timestamp when the row was saved.

Some fields can be null because Mercado Libre does not show every value on every search card. The Actor keeps missing values empty instead of guessing.

🧭 Common Use Cases

• Track product search ranks for important marketplace keywords.
• Compare prices, discounts, sellers, and shipping text across result pages.
• Monitor sponsored and organic product placement.
• Build product lists for ecommerce research or catalog review.
• Check how results change by delivery ZIP or postal code.
• Export Mercado Libre product search data into BI tools, spreadsheets, scripts, or alerts.
• Schedule repeat runs on Apify for recurring price and assortment checks.

🚀 How To Run

1. Add one or more values in Searches or URLs.
2. Pick a Market for plain search terms.
3. Add a Delivery ZIP/postal code if results should match a specific location.
4. Set Product limit to control dataset size and cost.
5. Choose Sort products by for plain search terms.
6. Set Start page only when you want to skip earlier result pages.
7. Run the Actor and open the dataset.

You can export the dataset, call the Actor from the Apify API, schedule runs, or connect it to webhooks and other Apify integrations.

💳 Pricing

This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. Each run has a small Actor start charge, then a charge for each product saved to the dataset. Use Product limit to control the maximum number of charged product rows before the run starts.

⚠️ Notes And Limits

Mercado Libre can change results by market, delivery location, page, product type, session, and time. Add a delivery ZIP or postal code when location-specific ranking, availability, or shipping text matters.

The Actor saves data shown on search result cards. It does not scrape product detail pages, reviews, Q&A, seller catalog pages, checkout data, private account data, or paid ad metrics. If you paste a product detail URL or homepage, the Actor skips it with a public warning and continues with supported targets.

❓ FAQ

Does This Scrape Mercado Livre In Brazil?

Yes. Choose Brazil for plain search terms or paste a Mercado Livre URL.

Can I Use Mercado Libre Category URLs?

Yes. Paste category URLs or results-page URLs into Searches or URLs.

Why Do Results Change By ZIP Or Postal Code?

Mercado Libre can personalize ranking, availability, and delivery promises by location. Add a delivery ZIP or postal code when you want the run to use a specific location context instead of Mercado Libre's inferred default.

Does It Scrape Product Detail Pages?

No. This Actor is focused on search result and category result cards. Product detail URLs are skipped before scraping starts.

Can I Export The Data?

Yes. Apify datasets can be exported as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, and HTML. You can also use the Apify API, schedules, webhooks, and integrations.

What If A Field Is Empty?

An empty value means Mercado Libre did not show that field on the search card for that product.
