Get your API Key
First, ensure to register at serpapi.com to get your API Key. You can get 100 free searches per month. You can use this API Key to access all of our APIs, including the Amazon Search API.

Available parameters
On top of running the basic search, you can see all of our available parameters here.

cURL Implementation

Here is the basic implementation in cURL:

curl --get https://serpapi.com/search \
 -d api_key="YOUR_API_KEY" \
 -d engine="amazon" \
 -d k="Coffee"

The k parameter is responsible for the search query.

Python Implementation

Next, let's see how to scrape the Amazon search results in Python.

Preparation for accessing the SerpApi API in Python

  • Create a new main.py file
  • Install requests with:
pip install requests

Here is what the basic setup looks like:

import requests
SERPAPI_API_KEY = "YOUR_REAL_SERPAPI_API_KEY"

params = {
    "api_key": SERPAPI_API_KEY, #replace with your real API Key
    # soon
}

search = requests.get("https://serpapi.com/search", params=params)
response = search.json()
print(response)

With these few lines of code, we can access all of the search engines available at SerpApi, including the Amazon Search API. 

import requests
SERPAPI_API_KEY = "YOUR_SERPAPI_API_KEY"

params = {
    "api_key": SERPAPI_API_KEY, 
    "engine": "amazon",
    "k": "Coffee"
}

search = requests.get("https://serpapi.com/search", params=params)
response = search.json()
print(response)

JavaScript implementation

Finally, let's see how to scrape the Amazon search results in JavaScript.

Install serpapi package:

npm install serpapi

Run a basic query:

const { getJson } = require("serpapi");
getJson({
  engine: "amazon",
  api_key: API_KEY, // Put your API Key
  k: "coffee"
}, (json) => {
  console.log(json["organic_results"]);
});

Other programming languages

While you can use our APIs using a simple GET request with any programming language, you can also see our ready-to-use libraries here: SerpApi Integrations.

We provide many filters to customize or filter your programmatic search.

Localize the results:
You can localize the results by adjusting the amazon_domain and language parameter.

  • amazon_domain: Parameter defines the Amazon domain to use. It defaults to amazon.com. Head to Amazon domains for a full list of supported Amazon domains.
  • language: Parameter defines the language to use for the Amazon search. It's a locale name represented as <language>_<REGION>. (e.g., on amazon.com en_US for English, es_US for Spanish, or on amazon.co.jp ja_JP for Japanese). Head to the following page for a complete list of supported Amazon languages.

Example using a different Amazon domain:

curl --get https://serpapi.com/search \
 -d api_key="YOUR_API_KEY" \
 -d engine="amazon" \
 -d k="Coffee" \
 -d amazon_domain="amazon.fr"

As you can see, the results are now returned from Amazon French:

How to paginate the results?

You can scrape beyond the first page using the page parameter. The default value is 1 for the page result. You can then increase it by one for the next pages.

2 for the 2nd page of results, 3 for the 3rd page of results, etc..
