MercadoLibre Scraper

mercadolibre.com

MercadoLibre is the dominant e-commerce marketplace across Latin America, spanning many country sites and currencies. ScrapeUnblocker renders its listing and search pages as a buyer would see them and returns the price, seller and shipping detail for each item, holding a clean 100% at around two seconds a page.

What you can extract

• Product title, condition and category
• Price, currency and installment options
• Seller reputation and sales count
• Free shipping and Mercado Envios flags
• Rating, review count and listing URL

How to scrape it

curl -X POST \
  -H "X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key: $SU_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/getPageSource?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.mercadolibre.com%2F&parsed_data=true"

import requests

resp = requests.post(
    "https://api.scrapeunblocker.com/getPageSource",
    headers={"X-ScrapeUnblocker-Key": SU_API_KEY},
    params={"url": "https://www.mercadolibre.com/", "parsed_data": True},
)
print(resp.text)

import { ScrapeUnblockerClient } from 'scrapeunblocker';

const su = new ScrapeUnblockerClient({ apiKey: process.env.SU_API_KEY });

const results = await su.getPageSource({
  url: 'https://www.mercadolibre.com/',
  parsedData: true,
});
console.log(results);

Requests are POST and take their parameters in the query string. Browser rendering always happens - there is no flag to enable.
