## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Shopify Store Scraper — Free, No API Key Required

Scrape any Shopify store's full product catalog via the public products.json endpoint. Returns product titles, prices, images, variants, and inventory data — no API key or authentication needed.

### What It Does

Most Shopify stores expose their product catalog at `/products.json`. This actor fetches and paginates through that endpoint to extract structured product data including all variants, images, and metadata.

Works with any Shopify store — just provide the store URL.

### Input Parameters

| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `storeUrl` | string | Yes | — | URL of the Shopify store (e.g. `https://gymshark.com`) |
| `maxProducts` | integer | No | 5 | Maximum products to scrape (max 10,000) |

### Output Format

```json
{
  "productId": 7654321098,
  "title": "Vital Seamless 2.0 T-Shirt",
  "vendor": "Gymshark",
  "productType": "Tops",
  "handle": "vital-seamless-2-0-t-shirt",
  "url": "https://gymshark.com/products/vital-seamless-2-0-t-shirt",
  "price": 30.00,
  "compareAtPrice": null,
  "currency": "GBP",
  "imageUrl": "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/...",
  "tags": ["mens", "tops", "training"],
  "variants": [
    {
      "id": 12345,
      "title": "S / Black",
      "price": "30.00",
      "available": true,
      "sku": "GS-VST-BK-S"
    }
  ],
  "createdAt": "2026-01-15T10:00:00Z",
  "updatedAt": "2026-03-20T14:30:00Z"
}
```

### Use Cases

- **Competitor monitoring** — Track competitor product catalogs, pricing, and new releases
- **Price intelligence** — Monitor prices across Shopify stores in your niche
- **Product research** — Discover what products successful stores are selling
- **Inventory tracking** — Monitor variant availability and stock changes over time
- **Market analysis** — Analyze product types, pricing tiers, and catalog sizes across stores

### How to Run via API

```python
import requests

run = requests.post(
    "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/cryptosignals~shopify-scraper/runs",
    params={"token": "YOUR_API_TOKEN"},
    json={
        "storeUrl": "https://gymshark.com",
        "maxProducts": 50
    }
).json()

dataset_id = run["data"]["defaultDatasetId"]
products = requests.get(
    f"https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/{dataset_id}/items"
).json()

for p in products:
    print(f"{p['title']} — {p['price']} {p.get('currency', '')}")
```

### Proxy Recommendation

Some Shopify stores block or rate-limit datacenter IPs. For reliable high-volume scraping, use residential proxies. We recommend [ThorData](https://thordata.partnerstack.com/partner/0a0x4nzh) — their residential proxies work well with Shopify stores worldwide.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "storeUrl": "https://gymshark.com",
    "maxProducts": 5
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("cryptosignals/shopify-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "storeUrl": "https://gymshark.com",
    "maxProducts": 5,
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("cryptosignals/shopify-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "storeUrl": "https://gymshark.com",
  "maxProducts": 5
}' |
apify call cryptosignals/shopify-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,cryptosignals/shopify-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
