Media Expert Scraper

Scrapes electronics and appliances from Mediaexpert.pl, one of Poland's largest consumer electronics chains with 500+ stores.

Input

How it works

The scraper sends requests with Accept-Language: pl-PL headers. On listing pages, product links matching /product/ or /produkt/ are collected. Detail pages are parsed using JSON-LD first (for name, brand, price, EAN, rating), then HTML selectors for specs tables and gallery images.

Output

{
"name":"Laptop ASUS VivoBook 15 X1504ZA",
"brand":"ASUS",
"price":2499,
"currency":"PLN",
"inStock":true,
"specs":{"Procesor":"Intel Core i5","RAM":"16 GB"},
"category":"Laptopy",
"url":"https://www.mediaexpert.pl/produkt/laptop-asus-vivobook-15",
"scrapedAt":"2026-03-16T10:00:00.000Z"
}

Notes

• All prices in Polish Zloty (PLN)
• Polish breadcrumb roots are filtered out ("Strona glowna", "Media Expert")
• Stock detection checks both JSON-LD availability and the .niedostepny (unavailable) CSS class
• Pagination follows "Nastepna" (Next) links

How to scrape Media Expert data

This Actor automates the process of extracting structured product data from Media Expert. 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

Cost estimate

Pricing on the Apify platform is usage-based — you only pay for the compute time and proxy traffic you actually use. As a rough guide for this Actor:

• 100 products: a few cents
• 1,000 products: typically under $1 USD
• 10,000 products: a few dollars, depending on site complexity and proxy mix

Costs are dominated by proxy usage on sites with anti-bot protection. The Apify free plan includes $5/month of platform credits, enough to evaluate the scraper on small datasets.

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 Media Expert? 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.

For issues, feature requests, or bug reports, open a ticket in the Issues tab on the Actor page or contact support@apify.com. We monitor every actor and ship fixes quickly when sites change.
