Amazon pages are read with a purpose-built site rule instead of a browser. You don’t turn anything on: send an Amazon URL as usual and the rule is used automatically. A page costs 1 credit, and pages that can’t be delivered are free. The rule steps aside when a request needs something only a browser can do: a screenshot, browser actions, forEach or an AI instruction. Those URLs use the normal browser flow.

​
Page types

Product links work in any shape you copy them in: /dp/, /gp/product/, mobile /gp/aw/d/ links, and long links with a product name and ref= tracking. Spidra reduces them to the product, keeping only th and psc, which pick a variation.

​
Marketplaces

All 23 Amazon storefronts work: amazon.com, .ca, .com.mx, .com.br, .co.uk, .ie, .de, .fr, .it, .es, .nl, .com.be, .se, .pl, .com.tr, .ae, .sa, .eg, .in, .co.jp, .sg, .com.au and .co.za. Each marketplace is read from its own country, so prices come back in that marketplace’s currency, with the availability a local shopper sees. You don’t need to set proxyCountry, and it isn’t used for Amazon pages.

​
Fields you get

Every field is optional on Amazon’s side. Products in different categories show different blocks, so a missing value comes back as null or an empty list, never a guess. A few notes on coverage:
  • topReviews holds the 8 to 13 reviews Amazon shows on the product page. Amazon shows them to some visitors and loads them later for others, so this list can be empty.
  • bestSellersRank, boughtPastMonth and coupon appear only when the product page shows them.
  • listPrice is the struck-through price, so it’s null when nothing is discounted.
  • Search results also say whether the search had more pages (nextPage).

​
Delivery location

Amazon decides availability, delivery dates and sometimes the price from the delivery address. When a product says it can’t be shipped to the visitor’s location, Spidra sets the marketplace’s default postcode (for example 10001 on amazon.com, SW1A 1AA on amazon.co.uk) and reads the page again. To choose the postcode yourself, add deliveryZip to the URL:
The response then says "deliverTo": "Beverly H... 90210" (Amazon shortens long place names the same way in its own header), and the delivery estimate is for that address. deliveryZip works on /scrape. It isn’t available on batch scrapes yet.

​
What comes back

  • output: "json" with no prompt or schema: the structured data as is. No AI is used, so the cost is the base credit only.
  • output: "markdown": the whole page as markdown, followed by the structured data.
  • With a prompt or schema: the AI reads a compact copy of the structured data instead of the whole page. A product with a six-field schema cost 3 credits in testing.

​
Reviews

Since November 2024, Amazon shows its full review pages, with pagination, star filters and newest-first sorting, only to signed-in visitors. Without signing in, the product page has the rating, the star breakdown, the “Customers say” summary and the top reviews, and Spidra returns all of them. To read full review pages, pass the cookies of your own signed-in Amazon session in cookies, for the same marketplace:
Spidra fetches the page as you. Without cookies, a review page fails straight away with a message and costs nothing. If the cookies aren’t a signed-in session or have expired, the request fails with a message and costs nothing.

​
Limits you should know about

  • Sign-in, account, cart and checkout pages are refused. They fail straight away and are not charged.
  • Product questions and answers are not public. In 2026 Amazon moved them into its signed-in shopping assistant.
  • Search pages are one page per request. Amazon shows a limited number of result pages for each search, so use narrower searches or filters for more products.
  • Unusual product layouts. A few products, such as subscription plans, use their own page layout. They come back as the full page in markdown without the structured fields.
  • A product that doesn’t exist in a marketplace fails with a message and is not charged.
Check Amazon’s terms of service before you scrape it. You are responsible for how you use the data you collect. Spidra is not affiliated with Amazon.
