Use Amazon Brand Store Page & Merchandising Crawler with Python
Crawl an Amazon Brand Store's navigation, creative modules (images, video, CTAs), and every product link found on its pages. Resolves a brand's Store URL automatically from a product page or ASIN.
1. Choose the data you need
Review the published README for supported collection modes, examples, and limits. The recipe below uses the current published input definition.
2. Prepare a source-based input
This JSON contains published prefills and required-field defaults. Review every value for your task before running it; it is not a promise of successful collection.
{
"asins": [],
"crawlSubpages": false,
"includeAssets": true,
"maxDepth": 1,
"maxPages": 3,
"maxProducts": 30,
"productUrls": [],
"proxyConfiguration": {
"useApifyProxy": true
},
"storeUrls": [
"https://www.amazon.com/stores/soundcore/page/AD6AD8C0-90C7-4C65-8000-0AC741FA2633"
]
}

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
storeUrls | array | required | Amazon Brand Store URLs, e.g. `https://www.amazon.com/stores/soundcore/page/AD6AD8C0-90C7-4C65-8000-0AC741FA2633`. At least one of storeUrls / productUrls / asins is required. |
productUrls | array | optional | Amazon product (/dp/{ASIN}) URLs. The actor visits each product page, finds its "Visit the {Brand} Store" link, and crawls that store instead. |
asins | array | optional | Product ASINs on amazon.com. Same resolution behavior as productUrls. |
crawlSubpages | boolean | optional | Follow the store's navigation menu (HOME, FEATURED DEALS, SSD, ...) and crawl every linked subpage, not just the landing page. |
maxDepth | integer | optional | How many navigation-link hops to follow from the landing page when crawlSubpages is enabled (1 = landing page's direct subpages only). |
maxPages | integer | optional | Hard cap on the total number of store pages (landing + subpages) fetched per store. |
maxProducts | integer | optional | Hard cap on the number of distinct product (ASIN) records emitted per store. |
includeAssets | boolean | optional | Also emit module/creative-asset records (images, video, CTA text, shoppable-image hotspots) found on each store page, not just product records. |
proxyConfiguration | object | optional | Apify proxy. AUTO (datacenter) is used by default with homepage-priming; the actor escalates to RESIDENTIAL automatically only if it keeps getting blocked. |
3. Start an Actor run
Set APIFY_TOKEN in your environment. Python 3.10 or newer is sufficient; this recipe uses no third-party packages.
Execution may incur charges. Review current pricing on Apify. The request asks for a 120-second timeout and a charge limit; these settings are subject to Apify’s pricing and do not guarantee an all-inclusive spending cap.
import json
import os
import urllib.request
# Save the schema-derived example as input.json; review and edit it first.
with open("input.json", encoding="utf-8") as stream:
actor_input = json.load(stream)
token = os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"]
request = urllib.request.Request(
"https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/NoDN50TMXljcpzeSO/runs?timeout=120&maxTotalChargeUsd=0.50",
data=json.dumps(actor_input).encode("utf-8"),
headers={"Authorization": "Bearer " + token, "Content-Type": "application/json"},
method="POST",
)
# This starts a potentially billable run. Do not automatically retry this POST.
with urllib.request.urlopen(request, timeout=40) as response:
run = json.load(response)["data"]
print("Run ID:", run["id"])
print("Status:", run["status"])
# Inspect and download results in Apify Console once the run succeeds.
4. Inspect the actual results
Open the run in Apify Console and wait for a successful completion. Use the published output schema to locate results and the dataset schema to understand declared views. Missing or optional record fields must not be treated as guaranteed values.
Amazon Brand Store pages, creative modules, and products, with brand identity, subpage navigation, and product links.
Questions before you run
Which inputs are required?
The published required fields are storeUrls
What does this guide verify?
The fields, prefills, and schema links are rendered from the published build. This is a usage recipe, not a paid live extraction test. Source availability and collection results can vary.
What if the run request times out?
Check Apify Console before retrying. The first request may already have created a run. Do not automatically repeat a run-creation POST.
