🎉 Scrape MercadoLibre across Argentina, Brazil, Mexico & Chile — every product field, in one clean dataset

Built for price-monitoring teams, resellers, and market researchers across Latin America

📋 Overview

Track an entire MercadoLibre category in minutes — this scraper turns any keyword search or listing URL into a structured dataset of products with prices, condition, sellers, ratings, full spec tables and image galleries, across the four biggest MercadoLibre marketplaces.

Why teams choose this scraper:

• ✅ Four countries, one actor: Argentina, Brazil, Mexico and Chile — switch with a single field.
• ⚡ Two speeds: a fast Overview list scrape for price snapshots, or a full Detail scrape with seller, ratings, sold quantity and the complete spec table.
• 🎯 Complete product records: up to 28 fields per product — price, original price, condition, brand, rating, review count, sold quantity, free-shipping flag, full specifications and every image.
• 💵 Dual currency: every local price (ARS, BRL, MXN, CLP) is normalized to USD with a live FX rate, so you can compare across countries instantly.
• 💰 Pay per result: only successful products are charged — no monthly subscription.
• ✨ No code, no account: paste a keyword or URL and press Start.

✨ Features

• 🌎 Multi-country: scrape Argentina, Brazil, Mexico or Chile marketplaces.
• 🔍 Keyword or URL search: type a keyword or paste any pre-filtered listing URL — your filters are preserved.
• 📋 Overview & Detail modes: cheap list scrape or rich per-product detail.
• 💲 Full pricing: current price, struck-through original price, currency, and a normalized USD value.
• ⭐ Ratings & social proof: average rating, review count and sold quantity.
• 🏪 Seller data: store name and seller signals.
• 🔧 Complete spec tables: every technical attribute as clean key:value rows.
• 🖼️ Image galleries: all hi-res product photos, with a thumbnail-first field.
• 🚚 Filters: new/used condition, price range, free shipping, and sort order.
• 📤 Clean export: JSON, CSV and Excel, straight from the dataset.

🐞 Troubleshooting

No results returned

• Check the keyword spelling and that the country (site) matches the URL you pasted.
• Broaden your price-range / condition filters.

Fewer results than expected

• Increase maxResults. FREE runs are capped at 20 products.

Detail mode returns partial fields

• Some products simply don't expose every field (e.g. no reviews yet). The row is still returned with whatever is available.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract any private user data, such as email addresses, gender, or location. They only extract what the user has chosen to share publicly. We therefore believe that our actors, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe.

However, you should be aware that your results could contain personal data. Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations around the world. You should not scrape personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure whether your reason is legitimate, consult your lawyers.

You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.
