Chrome Web Store Scraper API

Extract any Chrome Web Store extension into JSON: name, publisher, user count, rating, review stream, requested permissions, version, and category placement.

App listingsRatings & reviewsCharts & rankingsDeveloper data
▸ Overview

The Chrome Web Store distributes browser extensions and themes, where the active-user count and requested permissions matter as much as the rating. The Chrome Web Store Scraper API resolves extension listings, review streams, and category rankings into validated JSON keyed to the extension ID.

Security researchers, extension publishers, and competitive analysts use it to audit permission scopes, track user-count growth, and benchmark rival extensions. User counts and ratings are read live, and the declared permissions list is returned with every listing.

▸ FAQ

Chrome Web Store scraping, answered.

Structured JSON straight from the API, or pushed to your stack natively — S3, BigQuery, Snowflake, Postgres, Kafka, or any HTTPS webhook. Call it from Python, Node, Go, Rust, or any HTTP client. The data lands where your pipeline already lives.

No. You pay for valid, schema-passing rows only. Retries, blocks, CAPTCHAs, and 5xxs are on us. If a run doesn't return data that conforms to the schema, it isn't billed.

Every request routes through the same engine behind our Web Unblocker API: compliant residential IPs, real browser fingerprints, TLS-level evasion, behaviour modelling, and built-in CAPTCHA solving. Hard targets become routine.

Yes. We respect robots policies, rate budgets, and ToS-aware allow/deny lists. We deliver and move on — no row-level retention beyond your replay window. GDPR DPA, PII redaction, and custom data residency available on request.
