It's a valuable data target though it can be challenging to scrape due to its high level of protection. In this article about web scraping Etsy, we'll scrape items and review data from product, shop and search pages. Moreover, we'll explore to avoid Etsy scraping blocking. Let's get started! ## Key Takeaways Master etsy scraper development with Python to extract product data, reviews, and shop information while bypassing anti-scraping measures for comprehensive e-commerce analysis. - Reverse engineer Etsy's hidden JSON data embedded in script tags for product details and variants - Extract structured review data including ratings, comments, and reviewer information from product pages - Handle Etsy's anti-scraping measures with realistic headers, user agents, and request spacing - Parse dynamic search results and pagination to collect comprehensive product listings - Implement error handling and retry logic for rate limiting and temporary blocking scenarios - Use ScrapFly SDK for automated Etsy scraping with built-in anti-blocking protection [**View Source Code**github.com/scrapfly/scrapfly-scrapers/tree/main/etsy-scraper](https://github.com/scrapfly/scrapfly-scrapers/tree/main/etsy-scraper) **Get web scraping tips in your inbox**Trusted by 100K+ developers and 30K+ enterprises.

If you are a buyer looking to buy certain items, manually exploring thousands of ad listings to figure out the best deal can be tedious and time-consuming. With etsy.com scraping, we can retrieve thousands of listings and compare them in no time, allowing for better decision-making. Web scraping etsy.com also allows businesses and sellers to understand and analyze market trends to get insights into consumer behavior. Furthermore, scraping sellers' and shops' data from Etsy allows business owners to analyze their competitors' and market peers' items, stocks and prices. Leading to taking strategic moves and gaining a competitive edge. ## Project Setup To scrape etsy.com, we'll use a few Python libraries. - `scrapfly-sdk` for bypassing etsy.com web scraping blocking using [ScrapFly](https://scrapfly.io/)'s web scraping API. - `asyncio` for running our code in an asynchronous fashion, increasing [our web scraping speed](https://scrapfly.io/blog/posts/web-scraping-speed#async-requests). As `asyncio` comes included with Python, so we only have to install `scrapfly-sdk` using the following pip command: shell```shell pip install scrapfly-sdk ``` ## How to Scrape Etsy Listings Let's start by scraping Etsy.com listing pages. Go to any [listing page](https://www.etsy.com/listing/949905096) on the website and you will get a page similar to this: Item listing page on Etsy.comTo scrape listing pages' data, we'll extract all the data directly in JSON rather than parsing each data point from the HTML. To view the hidden listing data, open the browser developer tools (by pressing the `F12` key) to view the page HTML. Then, scroll down till you find the `script` tag with the `application/ld+json` type. The data inside this tag looks like this: Hidden data on product listing pageThis data is the same on the web page but before getting rendered into the HTML, usually known as [hidden web data](https://scrapfly.io/blog/posts/how-to-scrape-hidden-web-data). To scrape etsy.com listing pages, we'll select this `script` tag and extract the inside data as JSON directly: '); const s = document.createElement("script"); s.src = [ "https://gist.github.com/", "scrapfly-dev/", "73969723c2fa37536297e75e7c883103", ".js" ].join(""); document.write('Here, we initialize an httpx client with basic browser headers and define two functions: - `parse_product_page()` for parsing the HTML and selecting the JSON data inside the script tag. - `scrape_product()` for scraping the product pages by adding the page URLs to a scraping list and scraping them concurrently. Here is a sample output of the result we got: Example outputjson```json [ { "@type": "Product", "@context": "https://schema.org", "url": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/949905096/oakywood-dual-laptop-stand-wood-vertical", "name": "Oakywood Dual Laptop Stand Wood, Vertical Stand for Desk, Adjustable Macbook Double Dock, Desk Organizer, Gift for Him, Work from Home", "sku": "949905096", "gtin": "n/a", "description": "The Dual Laptop Dock is an innovative solution for your desk organization.

Highly recommend this.", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "JC Palmer" } }, .... ], "material": "Solid Wood/Stainless Steel/Walnut Wood" }, ] ``` Pretty straightforward! Our Etsy scraper got all the product data and a few reviews with just a few lines of code. Next, we'll scrape shop data! ## How to Scrape Etsy Shops Shop pages on etsy.com include data about the products sold by a shop alongside the shop reviews. Similar to product listing pages, shop page data are also found under `script` tags: Hidden data on shop pageJust like in the previous section, we'll scrape etsy.com shop pages by extracting the data directly from the above script tag: '); const s = document.createElement("script"); s.src = \[ "https://gist.github.com/", "scrapfly-dev/", "b6f92473a40078f626c3208f0f2ea80d", ".js" \].join(""); document.write('The above code is the same as the Etsy scraper we wrote earlier. We have only changed the naming and the XPath selector. Here is a sample output of the result we got: Sample outputjson```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "ItemList", "itemListElement": [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Product", "image": "https://i.etsystatic.com/18986650/r/il/42281b/3427680022/il_fullxfull.3427680022_busp.jpg", "name": "Custom Recipe Journal Anniversary gift Christmas gift, Recipe book For Mom, Leather Bound Cook book, Cookbook Wooden Cover Notebook", "url": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1096283182/custom-recipe-journal-anniversary-gift", "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "JoshuaHouseCrafts" }, "offers": { "@type": "Offer", "price": "90.69", "priceCurrency": "USD" }, "position": 1 }, .... ], "numberOfItems": 36 } ] ``` Cool! We are able to scrape product and shop pages from etsy.com. The last piece of our Etsy scraper is the search pages. Let's jump into it!

[Try Free →](https://scrapfly.io/register)## How to Scrape Etsy Search In this section, we'll scrape item listing data from search pages. But first, let's look at what the search pages on etsy.com look like. Search for any product on the website and you will get a page similar to this: Search page on Etsy.comUnlike the product and shop pages, hidden data on search pages don't provide all the search data. For example, here is hidden data on a search page. It contains 8 product listings, but the actual page contains 64 product listings: Hidden data on a search pagejson```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "ItemList", "itemListElement": [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Product", "image": "https://i.etsystatic.com/26507191/r/il/5e963e/3991311170/il_fullxfull.3991311170_1zyv.jpg", "name": "Wood Laptop Stand for Desk Wooden Computer Laptop Stand Portable Office Desk Accessories", "url": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1575517454/wood-laptop-stand-for-desk-wooden", "brand": { "@type": "Brand", "name": "YiYoYo" }, "offers": { "@type": "Offer", "price": "39.20", "priceCurrency": "USD" }, "position": 1, "aggregateRating": { "@type": "AggregateRating", "ratingValue": "4.8875", "reviewCount": "501" } }, .... ], "numberOfItems": 1447 } ``` So, to scrape Etsy.com search pages, we have to parse each listing data from the HTML. Let's start with that. '); const s = document.createElement("script"); s.src = [ "https://gist.github.com/", "scrapfly-dev/", "694edd771381ea2b1cdf1a2ffcd32c88", ".js" ].join(""); document.write('Here, we define a `scrape_search()` function to crawl over the search pages by scraping the first search page and then iterating over the desired number of search pages. The above etsy.com scraping code should scrape three search pages with a total number of 192 product listings. Here is what the scraped data should look like: Sample outputjson```json [ { "productLink": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1584493903", "productTitle": "Wood Monitor Stand. Wooden Monitor Stand. Laptop Stand. Monitor Riser. Desk Accessories. Speaker Stand. Desk Shelf.", "productImage": "https://i.etsystatic.com/46053372/c/1688/1688/654/0/il/b98b88/5716635451/il_300x300.5716635451_iyzl.jpg", "seller": "unfnshed", "listingType": "Free listing", "productRate": 4.9, "numberOfReviews": 87, "freeShipping": "Yes", "productPrice": 69.0, "priceCurrency": "$", "originalPrice": "No discount", "discount": "No discount" }, { "productLink": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1572117648", "productTitle": "Monitor Stand - Monitor Riser, Wood Monitor Stand, Solid Wood Stand, Desk Shelf, Laptop Stand, Speaker Stand, Desk Accessories, Wooden Stand", "productImage": "https://i.etsystatic.com/46053372/c/1688/1688/654/0/il/b98b88/5716635451/il_300x300.5716635451_iyzl.jpg", "seller": "KeelanScott", "listingType": "Free listing", "productRate": 4.9, "numberOfReviews": 310, "freeShipping": "Yes", "productPrice": 89.99, "priceCurrency": "$", "originalPrice": 149.99, "discount": "(40% off)" }, { "productLink": "https://www.etsy.com/listing/1353251909", "productTitle": "Wood Monitor Stand, Monitor Stand with Drawers, Computer Monitor Riser, Computer Stand, Wood Laptop Stand, Adjustable Desk, Monitor Riser", "productImage": "https://i.etsystatic.com/46053372/c/1688/1688/654/0/il/b98b88/5716635451/il_300x300.5716635451_iyzl.jpg", "seller": "woodandscienceteam", "listingType": "Free listing", "productRate": 5.0, "numberOfReviews": 160, "freeShipping": "Yes", "productPrice": 69.0, "priceCurrency": "$", "originalPrice": 138.0, "discount": "(50% off)" }, .... ] ``` Our scraping code is finally complete, which can scrape product, shop and search pages. However, our Etsy scraper will likely get blocked after sending additional requests to the website. Let's take a look at a solution! ## Avoid Esty.com Scraping Blocking Etsy.com is a highly protected website that can detect and block bots such as web scrapers. For example, let's attempt to request a search page on etsy.com with a headless browser to minimize the chances of getting blocked: python```python from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright with sync_playwright() as playwight: # Lanuch a chrome browser browser = playwight.chromium.launch(headless=False) page = browser.new_page() # Go to leboncoin.fr page.goto("https://www.etsy.com/search?q=personalized+gifts") # Take a screenshot page.screenshot(path="screenshot.png") ``` Our request has been detected as a bot and we got required to a CAPTCHA challenge before proceeding to the web page: Etsy.com web scraping blockingTo avoid etsy.com scraping blocking, we'll use ScrapFly. For Scrapfly example, all we should do is replace our HTTP client with the ScrapFly client: python```python import httpx from parsel import Selector response = httpx.get("some etsy.com url") selector = Selector(response.text) # in ScrapFly SDK becomes from scrapfly import ScrapeConfig, ScrapflyClient, ScrapeApiResponse scrapfly_client = ScrapflyClient("Your ScrapFly API key") result: ScrapeApiResponse = scrapfly_client.scrape(ScrapeConfig( # some homegate.ch URL "https://www.etsy.com/search?q=personalized+gifts", # we can select specific proxy country country="US", # and enable anti scraping protection bypass asp=True, # allows JavaScript rendering similar to headless browsers render_js=True )) # get the HTML content html = result.scrape_result['content'] # use the built-in parsel selector selector = result.selector ``` For more, explore [web scraping API](https://scrapfly.io/web-scraping-api) and its documentation. ## FAQ Is scraping etsy.com legal?All the data on etsy.com are publicly available and it's legal to scrape them as long as you don't affect the website performance by keeping your scraping rate reasonable.
