Home Depot CA

Complete guide on our Home Depot CA module

Home Depot CA supports guest checkout only, making it a straightforward and reliable module for retail restocks and in-stock pickups. It’s primarily used for tools, hardware, seasonal items, and high-demand restocks that often appear without warning.

Preliminary Checklist

Before setting up tasks on Home Depot CA, make sure you have everything below prepared:

  • Profiles

Create and save your checkout profiles under the Profiles tab in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.

  • Proxies

  • ISP proxies – Recommended for monitoring tasks.

  • Residential proxies – Recommended for checkout tasks. Save both proxy groups under the Proxies tab in Stellar.

    • If you're looking for proxies, check out Stella Proxies for high quality ISP and Residential proxies

  • Cook Group Access

Optional but recommended. Your cook group can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts.

  • Test Task

Before big drops, run a test task on a random in stock product to confirm your profiles, proxies and delays are functioning correctly.

Supported Modes

Monitor Mode

Monitors restocks separately from your checkout tasks. When the monitored SKU restocks, the monitor task pings any checkout tasks with the same SKU.

Shipping Mode

Used for shipping fulfillment (guest checkout only). If your default store has no stock, adjust your Zip Code or Store ID.

When to Use Each Mode

  • Monitor Mode → Detects restocks and pings your checkout tasks

  • Shipping Mode → Use for regular shipping checkout flow

Profile Selection

Select the profile to be used for checkout. Home Depot CA does not support accounts; all checkouts are guest.

Proxy Setup

Both ISP and Residential proxies are supported. Higher-quality proxies result in fewer errors. If you're looking for proxies, check out Stella Proxies for high quality ISP and Residential proxies

Product SKU

An item’s unique identifier. Found near the end of most product URLs.

Example: https://www.homedepot.ca/product/.../1001814680 SKU = 1001814680

It's recommended to get product SKUs from your cookgroup.

Quantity (QTY)

Check your cookgroup for product-specific purchase limits. Stellar does not auto-adjust quantities.

ZIP Code

  • Determines your default store selection

  • Different ZIP codes may affect pricing or availability

  • Only use if you want to override your Profile’s ZIP

Store ID

Overrides ZIP code. Sets a specific store as your default location.

Store IDs can be found here: https://stores.homedepot.ca/

Maximum Price

Sets a price ceiling to prevent purchasing items above your desired max spend.

Delays

  • Shipping Delay: 3000ms

  • Monitor Delay: 5000ms

  • Reset Delay: 9000ms

Watch Task – How It Works

The Watch Task option connects your Shipping task to your Monitor task.

If Watch Task is enabled:

  • The checkout task does not monitor

  • It waits for a Monitor task with the same SKU

  • When the item restocks, the Monitor task pings the checkout

  • Checkout task adds to cart → proceeds to checkout

Your checkout task will show: “Waiting for Monitor Ping” This is correct.

If Watch Task is disabled:

The checkout task monitors the SKU itself, adds to cart, and checks out directly.

Why Watch Task is recommended

  • Reduces proxy bans

  • Improves task performance

  • Keeps monitoring centralized and efficient
