Tutorial
If you wish to learn more about the process of how eBay data scraper works,
check this explanation in detail with examples and screenshots.
Execution cost
Executing the run is the simplest way to check the required CUs. Executing a
single but more extended scraper is more effective than multiple smaller scrapers
due to the startup duration. On average, this API will cost you around 65 cents per
1k products. For more information, check our pricing page. If you're confused
about how many CUs you have, check if you need to upgrade them. You can see
your limits in settings- billing and usage tag in the Real Data API console account.
Input Parameters
This API will require only a few settings from your side - a proxy and a link.
- proxyConfiguration (needed)- mentions using proxy settings during actor
execution. While running the API on the Real Data API, you must set the
proxy setting on the default value { "useRealdataAPIProxy": true }
- startUrls (needed): list of request points, mentioning search terms and
categories you wish to extract. You can use any URL of the category or
search page from eBay.

After the eBay API completes the scraping execution, it will save the output in a
dataset and display them as output results. You can download them in any
format.
Output example:
Remember that search output may vary when running data extraction from
different geolocation. We suggest using proxy locations to get the best results
from the same location.
Proxy Utilization
This API needs proxy servers to work properly, like many data scrapers in the
eCommerce industry. We don't suggest executing it on a free account for difficult
tasks than getting sample outputs. If you want to execute this actor to get many
results, subscribing to our platform will allow you to use several proxies.
