The Shopee data (e.g. listings, product descriptions) is considered publicly available information so you should be able to collect it. Nonetheless, the Oxylabs team always recommends seeking legal consultation before engaging in scraping activities to assess a specific situation and review associated local and international laws. To learn more about the legalities of web scraping, see our blog post here.

To gather public Shopee data, you’ll need a dedicated web scraping tool such as Oxylabs’ E-Commerce Scraper API. This tool is specifically designed to collect data from e-commerce websites such as Shopee. As a user, all you need to do is submit a request and the tool will return it, while taking care of common web scraping-related issues, such as CAPTCHA or IP bans.
