What CommentSold Scraper can do
- Three ways in. Walk shops by name, paste shop, collection, product and live links, or combine both across one run. No need to learn each shop's layout.
- One actor, every shop. The platform serves all of its boutiques from one shared storefront, so a single shop list covers N catalogues with per-shop progress in the log.
- Prices and stock, honestly counted. Every variant carries its price, sale price and quantity; the row reports the price range, total units and an in-stock flag computed over the whole table.
- Details on demand. Switch the full detail page on or off per run: shop collections, related products, sizing guides and shoppable videos, billed only when they land in your dataset.
- Live surface included. Each shop yields its live-show status row, its replays and its shoppable videos in the same run, under their own output tabs.
- Built for schedules. Incremental mode returns only new and changed products on recurring runs, and a refused or login-gated shop fails loudly instead of returning an empty dataset.
Choose what to collect
These inputs let you configure CommentSold Scraper - Products, Stock & Live Shopping Videos. Open the actor on Apify to enter your values and review the current options.
| Input | What it controls |
|---|---|
modestring · required | Choose 'search' to walk shops by name across their collections, or 'url' to scrape pasted links. |
shopsarray | One or more shops, as slugs (shopthemasonjar) or full shop links (https://shopthemasonjar.commentsold.com/). Each shop is walked across the collections below. |
urlsarray | Mix freely: shop links (https://shopthemasonjar.commentsold.com/), collection links (.../collections/all-items), single-product links (.../api/products/32291) and live links (.../live). Platform pages and custom domains that carry no shop name are reported and skipped. |
collectionsarray | Only walk these collections of each shop, given as the collection key in its address, for example 'all-items'. A key a shop does not carry is reported and skipped for that shop. Leave the default to walk the shop's full catalogue. |
searchQuerystring | Only return products matching this keyword, for example 'dress' or 'jeans'. Leave empty to walk the whole collection. A keyword that matches nothing ends that scope quietly with no results. |
inStockOnlyboolean | Only return products the shop currently holds stock of. Off by default so sold-out products still show up (marked out of stock). |
fetchDetailsboolean | Adds the shop's own collections, related products, sizing guide and shoppable video to every product. On by default; every product already carries prices, stock, variants, galleries and descriptions without it. Products are still returned when a detail read fails, without the surcharge. |
Show 14 more inputs
| Input | What it controls |
|---|---|
includeLiveboolean | Also return each shop's live-show status row, its replays and its shoppable videos. These are small extra reads per shop, never per product, and never add a surcharge. |
minPricenumber | Only return products priced at or above this amount in US dollars. Applied by this actor to each product's own lowest variant price. Products with no price, shows and videos are never dropped by a price bound. |
maxPricenumber | Only return products priced at or below this amount in US dollars, applied the same way as the minimum above. |
maxItemsinteger | Maximum number of results returned across the whole run. This is the run's cap. Use 0 for unlimited. |
maxPagesinteger | Maximum collection pages walked per shop or link, at 20 products a page. 0 means no page limit: the run then stops only at Max results, or when the shop runs out of products. |
resumeFromRunIdstring | Paste a previous run id or dataset id to continue a large crawl without returning results already collected there. Use this after an interrupted run. For recurring daily monitoring of the same shops, use Incremental mode below instead. |
incrementalModeboolean | Turn this on for daily or recurring monitoring. The first run returns everything matching as NEW. Later runs normally return only NEW, UPDATED and REAPPEARED results, which is how you catch a price change, a restock, a new arrival or a shop going live. The actor's own timestamp and the live viewer counter are deliberately ignored when deciding what changed, because they drift constantly and would otherwise mark every result as changed on every run. State is kept separately for each shop set, collection set and filter setup, so two different shop lists never mix. |
stateKeystring | Optional. Name this monitoring campaign to keep its state stable, or to deliberately share state across differently configured runs. Leave empty to let the actor derive a key from the shops, links and filters. |
emitUnchangedboolean | Off by default. Turn on to also return results that have not changed since the last run, marked UNCHANGED. This returns, and bills, extra rows you already have, so leave it off unless you want the full snapshot every run. |
emitExpiredboolean | Off by default. Turn on to also return results that were present in a previous run but are no longer found, marked EXPIRED, which is how a sold-out product disappearing shows up. Only produced once a run has fully scanned the tracked shops, never when Max results capped it or Resume was used. This returns, and bills, extra rows. |
ignoreFieldsForChangesarray | Field names to ignore when deciding whether a tracked product changed, for example a field your downstream does not care about. The actor already ignores its own timestamp and the live viewer counter. Documented in the README. |
mcpConnectorsarray | Optionally send results into the apps you already use, via Model Context Protocol (MCP) connectors. Authorize one under Apify, Settings, API and Integrations, then select it here. Notion gets a rich page per item; other connectors get a best-effort write or digest. Leave empty to skip; this never changes the dataset output. Supported: Notion (https://mcp.notion.com/mcp), Linear (https://mcp.linear.app/sse), Airtable (https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp), Apify (https://mcp.apify.com). |
notionParentPageUrlstring | URL or id of the Notion page under which item pages are created. Required to enable the Notion export; ignored by other connectors. |
maxNotifyListingsinteger | Cap on items written to each connector per run. Does not affect the dataset. |

Questions about this actor
What data does CommentSold Scraper return?
CommentSold Scraper returns 49 documented fields, including type, shop, image, thumbnail, show or video, product, show status and price from. Availability of each field depends on the source page and the selected mode.
How much does CommentSold Scraper cost?
It costs $1.80 per 1,000 results on the Apify Free plan and from $1.20 on paid plans, with smaller per-run or optional feature charges listed on Apify. The Apify listing shows the current rate for every plan.
Can I get only new or changed products on a schedule?
Yes. Schedule the actor from the Schedules tab and turn on Incremental mode. Each run then returns only new and updated records, and unchanged ones are not billed. Price, stock and availability changes are the signal.
Why did a run return fewer products than the shop shows?
Search mode stops at Max items, first shops and collections first. Set it higher, or to 0, to collect whole catalogues. A keyword or stock filter also narrows the walk, and detail enrichment never drops a product whose detail read failed.
Why did my run fail instead of returning an empty dataset?
If every shop refused the connection, or every shop requires shoppers to log in, the run stops with a clear message so "no products today" is never confused with "nothing could be read". Run it again in a few minutes. If only some shops could be read, you still get what was found, with a note naming the shops that were skipped.
Do shops have product reviews?
No. The shops do not publish ratings or review texts on their public pages, so there is nothing to collect. If a shop adds them later, they will appear in a later version of this actor.
