How to Create Your Alibaba Scraper

Get your Alibaba scraper API up and running in minutes with these simple steps.

1

Sign up and create a parser

Create your free Parseium account and start a new parser project. Choose Alibaba as your target website and get 1000 free credits to get started.

2

Configure target URL and data fields

Paste an example Alibaba page URL (product listing, supplier profile, or search results) and use our AI-powered schema builder to define the data fields you want to extract—products, prices, MOQ, suppliers, and more.

3

Test your extraction

Run a test extraction to verify your parser is capturing the right data. Our AI will help you refine selectors and validate the output matches your schema.

4

Get your API key

Generate an API key from your dashboard. This key authenticates your requests and tracks your usage across all your parsers.

5

Integrate with your code

Use our simple REST API to start extracting Alibaba data. Send URLs via the scrape endpoint or HTML via the parse endpoint and get structured JSON back instantly.

How to Use the Alibaba API

Simple REST API with two endpoints: scrape any Alibaba URL or parse HTML you already have.

Scrape Endpoint

Provide a Alibaba URL and we'll fetch and parse it for you.

const response = await fetch(`https://api.parseium.com/v1/scrape/${parserId}`, {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'X-API-Key': process.env.PARSEIUM_API_KEY,
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    url: 'https://example.com/alibaba-scraper-api-page',
  }),
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);

Parse Endpoint

Upload Alibaba HTML content directly for faster parsing.

TypeScript Example

const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('html', htmlFile); // File or Blob

const response = await fetch(`https://api.parseium.com/v1/parse/${parserId}`, {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    'X-API-Key': process.env.PARSEIUM_API_KEY,
  },
  body: formData,
});

const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
