Scrape your first Bing Shopping Results with SerpApi
Head to the Bing Shopping Results from the documentation on SerpApi for details.
In this tutorial, we will scrape Bing Shopping Results when searching with the "iPhone 15" keyword. The data contains: "title", "link", "seller", "price", "extracted_price", "rating", "reviews", "thumbnail", "price_history_link", "free_shipping" and more. You can also scrape more information with SerpApi.
First, you need to install the SerpApi client library.
pip install google-search-results
Set up the SerpApi credentials and search.
import serpapi, os, json
params = {
'api_key': 'YOUR_API_KEY', # your serpapi api
'engine': 'bing_shopping', # SerpApi search engine
'q': 'iphone'
}
To retrieve Bing Shopping Results for a given search term, you can use the following code:
results = serpapi.Client().search(params).get_dict()['shopping_results']
You can store Bing Shopping Results JSON data in databases or export them to a CSV file.
import csv
header = ['title', 'link', 'seller', 'price', 'extracted_price', 'rating', 'reviews', 'thumbnail', "price_history_link", "free_shipping"]
with open('bing_shopping.csv', 'w', encoding='UTF8', newline='') as f:
writer = csv.writer(f)
writer.writerow(header)
for item in results:
print(item)
writer.writerow([item.get('title'), item.get('link'), item.get('seller'), item.get('price'), item.get('extracted_price'), item.get('rating'), item.get('reviews'), item.get('thumbnails')[0], item.get('price_history_link'), item.get('free_shipping')])
This example is using Python, but you can also use your all your favorite programming languages likes Ruby, NodeJS, Java, PHP....
