Runs in the cloud on Apify. No servers, no proxy setup, no code to maintain. Open it on Apify

What you get

• Price, old price, discount and currency (24 ship-to countries)
• Exact order count (6,005, not just "5,000+ sold")
• Rating, ships-from country and delivery estimate
• AliExpress Choice, free shipping, sponsored and new-shopper flags
• Filters: price range, minimum orders, minimum rating, free shipping only, Choice only

Quick start: Python

pip install -U apify-client

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")

run = client.actor("serenido/aliexpress-search-reliable").call(run_input={
    "searchTerms": [
        "yoga mat"
    ],
    "maxItems": 120,
    "sortBy": "orders",
    "country": "US",
    "minRating": 4.5
})

for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

Quick start: JavaScript (Node.js)

npm install apify-client

import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });

const run = await client.actor("serenido/aliexpress-search-reliable").call({
    "searchTerms": [
        "yoga mat"
    ],
    "maxItems": 120,
    "sortBy": "orders",
    "country": "US",
    "minRating": 4.5
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

Quick start: one HTTP call

Runs the tool and returns the rows in one request. Good for runs under 5 minutes; for bigger runs use the Python or JavaScript example.

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/serenido~aliexpress-search-reliable/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchTerms": ["yoga mat"], "maxItems": 120, "sortBy": "orders", "country": "US", "minRating": 4.5}'

Get your token in Apify Console > Settings > API & Integrations.
