Amazon UK Price Scraping API: London Retailers Guide 2026

Introduction

Step-by-Step Integration (Copy-Paste Code)

1. Node.js Quickstart (London Geo)

const axios = require('axios');

async function scrapeAmazonUKLondon() {
  const response = await axios.post('https://api.actowizsolutions.com/v2/amazon/uk', {
    api_key: 'YOUR_ACTOWIZ_KEY',
    asins: ['B0DM5JH99Y', 'B0DM5JK2T3'],
    geo_location: 'London',
    extract: ['buybox', 'sellers', 'stock', 'price_history']
  });
  console.log('Live Amazon UK data:', response.data);
  return response.data;
}

scrapeAmazonUKLondon();

2. Python + Pandas Dashboard

import requests
import pandas as pd
import json

def amazon_uk_london_bulk():
    payload = {
        "api_key": "YOUR_ACTOWIZ_KEY",
        "keywords": "iPhone 16, Samsung S24, MacBook Air M3",
        "country": "UK",
        "geo": "London",
        "limit": 250
    }
    response = requests.post("https://api.actowizsolutions.com/v2/amazon/uk", json=payload)
    data = response.json()
    df = pd.DataFrame(data['products'])
    df.to_csv('london_amazon_competitors.csv', index=False)
    print(f"✅ Scraped {len(df)} products → london_amazon_competitors.csv")

amazon_uk_london_bulk()

3. Shopify Auto-Repricing (JavaScript)

// Trigger on webhook: hourly price check
async function autoRepriceProducts() {
  const amazonData = await scrapeAmazonUKLondon();
  amazonData.products.forEach(product => {
    if (product.buy_box.price < currentPrice * 0.95) {
      updateShopifyPrice(product.asin, product.buy_box.price * 1.05);
    }
  });
}
