Dustin Scraper

Scrapes IT products and business technology from Dustin.se, the Nordics' leading B2B IT distributor. Laptops, servers, networking equipment, peripherals, and software licenses.

Multi-strategy extraction

Dustin.se is a Next.js app. The scraper uses four data extraction strategies in priority order:

1. __NEXT_DATA__ embedded JSON (search results, product lists)
2. JSON-LD structured data (product detail pages)
3. HTML product cards with CSS selectors
4. Product link discovery + individual page fetches

It handles Swedish price formats, rate limiting (800ms between requests), and retries with backoff on 403/429 responses.

Cost

~1 CU per 1,000 products. The request delay adds some time overhead.

Notes

• Swedish-language site, prices in SEK
• Uses got-scraping directly rather than CheerioCrawler for fine-grained retry control
• The 800ms delay between requests keeps the scraper under Dustin's rate limits
• Without input, the scraper navigates from the homepage and finds category links automatically

How to scrape Dustin data

This Actor automates the process of extracting structured product data from Dustin. You can run it directly from the Apify console, the Apify API, or any of the official SDKs (JavaScript, Python). The scraper handles pagination, retries, and rate limiting so you can focus on the data, not the plumbing.

Typical workflows:

• One-off export: paste a category URL or keyword, set maxResults, and run
• Scheduled monitoring: set a daily cron in the Schedule tab to track prices over time
• Programmatic integration: trigger runs from your backend via the Apify API and pull the dataset when finished
• Webhook automation: receive a callback the moment a run completes and pipe the results into Zapier, Make, n8n, BigQuery, or Google Sheets

Tips for best results

• Start small — run with maxResults: 10 before launching large jobs
• Use proxies — residential proxies reduce blocking on protected sites
• Throttle on big jobs — keep maxConcurrency modest (5–10) for stability
• Schedule runs — daily runs are usually enough for price monitoring
• Inspect the dataset schema — the Storage tab shows the full output structure

FAQ and support

Is it legal to scrape Dustin? This Actor extracts publicly available data. Always review the website's Terms of Service before scraping at scale, and respect rate limits.

Why am I getting fewer results than expected? Some categories have hidden pagination or load more on scroll. Increase maxResults and verify your filters.

Can I extract data for a single product? Yes — provide the full product URL in startUrls and the scraper will return one item.

The site blocks me — what should I do? Enable Apify residential proxies in the input. Datacenter IPs are blocked by many e-commerce sites.
