Product

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

Request samples

The samples below illustrates how you can get a parsed Best Buy product result.

curl 'https://realtime.oxylabs.io/v1/queries' \
--user 'USERNAME:PASSWORD' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
        "source": "bestbuy_product", 
        "product_id": "6586591",
        "parse": true
    }'

# Structure payload.
payload = {
    'source': 'bestbuy_product',
    'product_id': '6586591',

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

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