Product

The target_product source is designed to retrieve Target product result pages. We can return the HTML for any Target page you like. Additionally, we can deliver structured (parsed) output for Target product pages.

Request samples

The example below illustrates how you can get a parsed Target product page result.

cURL

curl 'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries' \
--user 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
        "source": "target_product", 
        "product_id": "91936637", 
        "render": "html",
        "parse": true
    }'

Python

import requests
from pprint import pprint


# Structure payload.
payload = {
    'source': 'target_product',
    'product_id': '91936637',
    'render': 'html',
    'parse': True,
}

# Get response.
response = requests.request(
    'POST',
    'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries',
    auth=('user', 'pass1'),
    json=payload,
)

# Instead of response with job status and results url, this will return the
# JSON response with the result.
pprint(response.json())

Node.js

const https = require("https");

const username = "USERNAME";
const password = "PASSWORD";
const body = {
    source: "target_product",
    product_id: "91936637",
    render: "html",
    parse: true,
};

const options = {
    hostname: "realtime.oxylabs.io",
    path: "/v1/queries",
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        Authorization:
            "Basic " + Buffer.from(`${username}:${password}`).toString("base64"),
    },
};

const request = https.request(options, (response) => {
    let data = "";

    response.on("data", (chunk) => {
        data += chunk;
    });

    response.on("end", () => {
        const responseData = JSON.parse(data);
        console.log(JSON.stringify(responseData, null, 2));
    });
});

request.on("error", (error) => {
    console.error("Error:", error);
});

request.write(JSON.stringify(body));
request.end();
