Amazon Data Extraction API: Product Price Monitoring Interface

How proxy IPs can help you get price monitoring at Amazon?

Doing e-commerce friends know, Amazon commodity prices become faster than the weather. Manually staring at the price can exhaust an individual, this time it is necessary to rely on the program to automatically grab the data. But the direct jacking interface is easy to be blocked, this timeproxy IPIt becomes a life preserver.

To cite a chestnut, there is a brother to do price comparison platform, with their own broadband for three consecutive days to catch, the results of the IP directly by Amazon black. Later changed to ipipgo's dynamic residential agent, monitoring 2000 commodity prices steady, this is a real case.

There are all sorts of agency services on the market, and you have to pay attention to these hard indicators when picking one:

ipipgo's.Residential AgentsBest suited for price monitoring, each request for a different region of the real user IP, Amazon pressure can not tell whether it is a real person or program.

Hands on with ipipgo to connect price interface

Here's a chestnut in Python that runs in three steps:

import requests

proxies = {
    'http': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口',
    'https': 'http://用户名:密码@gateway.ipipgo.com:端口'
}

 Grab Apple cell phone prices
resp = requests.get(
    'https://api.amazon.com/product/ASIN123',
    proxies=proxies,
    headers={'User-Agent':'Mozilla/5.0'}
)
print(resp.json()['price'])

Note these two key points:

1. User-Agent must be changed for each request.The best way is to use the logo of a common browser
2. Agent Certification InformationYou have to fill in the account password given by ipipgo's back office.

Old Driver's Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls

Three common mistakes newbies make:

1. Use an IP to death - recommend changing IPs every 5 requests
2. Request intervals are too regular - randomly wait 1-3 seconds before sending a request
3. Ignore timeout settings - just give up and retry after 8 seconds

Frequently Asked Questions QA

Q: Do I need to maintain my own IP pool?
A: Not at all! ipipgo's backend automatically assigns new IPs and each request is a clean address!

Q: Will it be illegal?
A: It's perfectly legal to simply grab public pricing information as long as it doesn't creep into users' private data.

Why ipipgo?

The team's own measured data to speak: with the ordinary agent success rate of only 67%, change ipipgo directly dry to 98%.Dynamic Residential IPThe three-point advantage is obvious:

• Fully automated IP replacement, no maintenance code to write
• Support pay-per-use, use as much as you need

Finally, I would like to give a piece of advice: don't think of doing price monitoring to save the agent's money, reliable agent services can make you go three years less curved road. There are brothers cheap with free agents, the results of the data did not catch much, the developers fell overtime to change a month of bugs, how to calculate this account are losing.
