eBay Scraper for extracting product titles, descriptions, prices, specifications, customer reviews, and ratings from eBay
Craigslist Scraper is a scraping tool that overcomes advanced anti-bot systems and helps you gather public data from Craigslist on any scale you need. This guide will show you how to scrape Craigslist using Oxylabs’ Scraper API.
You can get Craigslist data by sending a request to our API with the URLs you want to access and scrape. The API will return the HTML of any public Craigslist page.
The below code sample sends a request to our service, which uses a headless browser to execute JavaScript and sends back the HTML of a Craigslist page:
import requests
from pprint import pprint
# Structure payload.
payload = {
'source': 'universal',
'url': 'https://berlin.craigslist.org/search/ela#search=1~gallery~0~0',
'geo_location': 'Germany',
'render': 'html'
}
# Get a response.
response = requests.request(
'POST',
'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries',
auth=('USERNAME', 'PASSWORD'), #Your credentials go here
json=payload
)
# Instead of response with job status and results URL, this will return the
# JSON response with results.
pprint(response.json())
Visit the documentation to find more payload parameters and other details.
