Tips for best results
- Use a specific product phrase instead of a broad one when you need cleaner rows.
- Use
startUrlsfor category pages or searches you already refined in the browser. - Set
shipToCountryandcurrencybefore comparing prices. - Try
orders_descfor product-demand research andprice_ascorprice_descfor price checks. - Enable proxy only if AliExpress blocks or redirects direct traffic.
Limits and caveats
- The actor extracts product listing data. It does not collect full product-detail pages or product reviews.
- AliExpress may personalize listings by region, currency, cookies, or experiments.
- Seller, shipping, rating, and review fields can be missing for some products.
- Large exports may be affected by anti-bot blocking; use smaller batches and proxy when needed.

Support
If a run fails, returns no data, or a field looks wrong, open an issue from the Actor page.
