FAQ

How is this different from the 1688 Wholesale Scraper? 1688 Wholesale Scraper returns the offers, one row per product. This actor returns the companies behind them, one row per supplier, and charges per supplier.

Why is location empty on some rows? 1688 leaves it out of some listings. The shop link always works.

Can I get every product of one supplier? Yes. Put the supplier in Supplier shops: its supplierId from a row of this actor, its name.1688.com link, or any product link from the shop. Rows carry price, orders, picture and link; for MOQ, price tiers and every SKU, send the links to 1688 Product Details.

Why is my shopNNNN.1688.com link skipped? A link like shop9700417490502.1688.com does not say which supplier it is. Paste any product link from that shop, or the supplierId from a row of this actor, and the shop is read.

Why do some suppliers have an empty factory profile? Only suppliers that published a factory profile on 1688 have one: most factories and some traders. For the rest profileFound is false and the profile fields are empty. In a phone case search on 2026-11-12, 4 to 7 of 10 suppliers had one.

Do I need a 1688 account or cookies? No.
