Snapdeal Scraper - Extract Product, Price and Seller Data

How we deliver it

This runs as a managed service. You describe the categories, sellers or search terms that matter and the fields you need. We build the crawler, operate it on your schedule and deliver the rows.

Output is CSV, JSON, XLSX or an API endpoint your systems can poll. Daily, weekly or several times a day during sale windows, whichever the decision needs. We monitor the job, and when Snapdeal changes a template we repair the parser before it reaches your reports.

We collect public pages only, at a modest request rate, and we respect the site's robots.txt.

What a Snapdeal listing actually contains

A Snapdeal listing carries four identifiers at once, and they do not all agree. The page script sets them together as catalogId, supc, pogId and vendorCode. The number in the URL is the pogId, though on some listings the page configuration reports a different pogId for the same item. The SUPC is the per-variant stock code, printed on the page under Highlights as a string like SUPC: SDL206469256, and it is the key Snapdeal's own seller platform uses.

Fields we extract on a routine run:

  • Identifiers - the pogId from the URL, the catalogId, the SUPC and the canonical link. The og:url meta tag on Snapdeal product pages is missing the slash after the domain, so it cannot be used to build URLs.
  • Price - the selling price, the struck MRP and the discount. These sit in microdata, not JSON-LD: itemprop price, priceCurrency and availability. The visible labels are MRP, (Inclusive of all taxes) and a figure marked % OFF. The Offer scope is bound to the seller block by an itemref, so a naive parser loses the link between the price and the merchant charging it.
  • Seller - the name under the Sold by label, the seller URL in the form /seller/S76ee9, and the numeric vendorscore carried as an attribute on the buy button. The star graphic is drawn as a CSS width percentage, so the rating has to be read from the attribute rather than measured off the stars.
  • Variants - each colour and each size is its own catalogId and SUPC, tagged with selectedAttr and a data-sold flag. One listing expands into one row per purchasable variant, and sizes run past XXL to 3XL and 4XL.
  • Stock state - productLifeState, whose permitted values are Sold Out, Coming Soon, Prebook, Discontinued and Buy Now.
  • Ratings - ratingValue, ratingCount and reviewCount, which are genuinely different numbers. A listing can show 91 Ratings and no written reviews at all.
  • Taxonomy - the breadcrumb, which names categories as the site writes them, including the ampersand in labels like Personal Care & Grooming.

What Snapdeal scraping adds beyond the product record

What Snapdeal scraping adds beyond the product record

The site publishes a good deal of machine-readable structure, and it is cheaper to use than crawling blind.

  • Category pages at /products/<slug>. Measured on 27 August 2026, the category sitemap listed 1,682 of them. The slug is flat even though the underlying taxonomy runs six levels deep.
  • Facets in the form /products/mens-footwear/filters/Color_s~Black, with range facets using a different separator, as in avgRating~4~$~0. The facet names keep their Solr suffixes, which is why you see Color_s and Size_s rather than plain names. Note that robots.txt disallows the Brand~ variant specifically and leaves the others alone.
  • Collections at /collection/, where the price band pages live.
  • Sitemaps, rebuilt daily. Every child file we pulled on 27 August 2026 carried that date as its lastmod.
  • Sort orders - plrty for Popularity, plth for Price Low To High, phtl for Price High To Low, dhtl for Discount and rec for Fresh Arrivals.

One trap deserves naming. In a single category sitemap on 27 August 2026 we counted 7,240 product URLs sharing only 514 distinct slugs, and a listing whose slug reads navy-blue can be a brown kurti. The slug is not an identity. Deduplicate on the numeric id and the SUPC, never on the slug or the title.

What Snapdeal is today

Snapdeal today is a value commerce marketplace. It holds no first-party inventory. Every listing belongs to a third-party seller, and the platform earns on the transaction rather than on stock it owns. Any price you collect is a seller's price, not Snapdeal's.

The commercial position is documented. Parent company AceVector Limited, which also holds Unicommerce and Stellaro Brands, disclosed during its 2025 listing process that more than 80 percent of Snapdeal orders were priced below Rs 599. Demand is concentrated in smaller cities rather than metros. Snapdeal's own 2022 listing attempt was withdrawn; AceVector filed again through the confidential route in July 2025 and had SEBI approval by November 2025. Describing this site as the horizontal player it was a decade ago will lead you to the wrong categories.

The catalogue shows the same shape. Checked on 27 August 2026, the sitemap index listed 1,433 child files and the curated collection sitemap held 1,600 landing pages. Fifty-four of those collections are explicit price bands, and the thresholds sit low: ten at under 500, seven at under 200, six at under 300. Slugs such as /collection/kurtis-below-200 and /collection/saree-under-500 are not campaign copy. They are the navigation.

Much of the assortment is unbranded or carries a seller's own label. That matters if you intend to match Snapdeal against another retailer, because there is frequently no GTIN, no manufacturer part number and no brand to join on.

Why teams scrape Snapdeal

The reason to scrape Snapdeal is that it prices differently from the rest of Indian e-commerce. Benchmark only against the large horizontal players and you never see the floor of the market. Snapdeal shows what the same category looks like at two hundred rupees, sold by a merchant nobody has heard of.

Common uses:

  • Price floor monitoring in value tiers, where the competition is unbranded goods rather than a named rival.
  • Seller tracking. The internal listing endpoint accepts a sellerCode query, so a single merchant's catalogue can be followed as they add stock, reprice and drop lines.
  • Assortment mapping for private label. Apparel listings carry a size chart with brand size, bust, waist, shoulder and hips, which is enough to compare fit standards between sellers.
  • Measuring the Indian festive discount cycle, when the value end of the market moves hardest.

Snapdeal prices move for reasons that have nothing to do with the product. One seller drops off, another takes the buy position at a different price, and the listing looks unchanged apart from the number. Sampling once a month will not show you that happened.

About ScrapeIt

ScrapeIt is a managed web scraping agency. We are not a library and not a self-service tool. We take the requirement, build and run the crawler, and hand over data that is ready to load.

Marketplaces break scrapers routinely. Templates change, fields move, identifiers get reused. Keeping a Snapdeal feed correct is continuous maintenance, and that maintenance is the service you are buying.

FAQ

Does Snapdeal have a public API for product and price data?

Not an open one. Snapdeal publishes Seller APIs, documented at sellerapis.snapdeal.com, but the documentation states you must first register as an API User and obtain an access token, and that the Snapdeal API team replies within two days. Everything behind that gate is scoped to your own account: the inventory call returns the seller's inventories for given SUPCs, the pricing call returns pricing details for given SUPCs, and the product search covers the products the seller owns. Calls run against apigateway.snapdeal.com/seller-api. Checked on 27 August 2026, there is no public endpoint serving marketplace-wide catalogue or competitor prices. If you need Snapdeal data across sellers, it has to be collected from the public pages.

Can you get Snapdeal data if the site blocks ordinary requests?

Yes, though not by defeating anything. On 27 August 2026 a plain HTTP client asking for www.snapdeal.com received an HTTP 403 from CloudFront, and setting a browser User-Agent alone did not change it. We do not claim to break protection or solve CAPTCHAs. We render pages the way a browser does, keep the request rate modest, honour robots.txt and accept that some paths are closed to us. Where the site publishes machine-readable files we use those first: the sitemap index and its child files were reachable and current on the same date, which makes URL discovery cheap and stable.

How do you handle products sold by more than one seller?

Snapdeal is a pure marketplace, so every price on the site belongs to a merchant rather than to Snapdeal. A product page carries the seller name under the Sold by label, a seller URL in the form /seller/S76ee9, a numeric vendorscore and a field recording how many sellers offer the item. The page that lists all sellers for a product is disallowed in robots.txt, so we do not crawl it. What we deliver is the seller holding the buy position at the moment of the run, with the score attached. Compare consecutive runs and seller rotation becomes visible, which is usually what people actually wanted to measure.

Which Snapdeal identifier should we join our data on?

Use the SUPC. It is the per-variant stock code, it appears on the page under Highlights in the form SDL206469256, and it is the same key Snapdeal's seller platform uses for its inventory and pricing calls, so it survives translation between public pages and merchant records. The number in the product URL is the pogId, which addresses a page reliably but is not always the pogId the page's own configuration reports. Do not join on the slug or the product title: in one category sitemap on 27 August 2026 we counted 7,240 product URLs across only 514 distinct slugs.

How often does Snapdeal data change, and how often should we pull it?

Prices and stock move daily, and faster during festive periods. Sellers rotate, which changes the displayed price while the product itself stays put, so a monthly sample will read as noise. The sitemaps are rebuilt every day. For price and stock work most clients run daily and step up to several times a day inside sale windows. For assortment or catalogue mapping, weekly is normally enough. We set the schedule with you and change it when the season calls for it.
