## 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`).

## Sephora Scraper

![Sephora Scraper](https://i.ibb.co/BVb4yKMN/Sephora-Scraper.png)

### Overview

The **Sephora Scraper** is an Apify actor designed to extract comprehensive product information from Sephora.com. By providing a list of product URLs as input, the scraper retrieves details such as product name, brand, pricing, availability, reviews, and more.

***

### Input Configuration

The input for the Sephora Scraper should be a JSON object containing the following keys:

- `proxyConfiguration`: Specifies the proxy settings. Use the Apify residential proxy group for optimal performance.
- `urls`: An array of Sephora product URLs to scrape.
- `item_limit`: Maximum number of product URLs to scrape per run (default 10, `0` = no limit).

#### Input Example

```json
{
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    },
    "item_limit": 10,
    "urls": [
        "https://www.sephora.com/product/rare-beauty-by-selena-gomez-soft-pinch-liquid-blush-P97989778?skuId=2362085&icid2=homepage_productlist_chosenforyou_us_rwd_092022"
    ]
}
```

***

The scraper returns a JSON array of objects, where each object contains detailed information about the product, including:

- `url`: The product URL provided in the input.
- `name`: The name of the product.
- `brand`: The brand of the product.
- `product_offers`: An array of pricing and availability details for different SKUs, including:
  - `price`: The product price.

  - `availability`: Availability status (e.g., InStock, OutOfStock).
  - `sku`: Stock Keeping Unit (SKU) identifier.
  - `image`: URL of the product image.
  - `seller`: The seller's name.
- `aggregateRating`: Overall rating details, including:
  - `reviewCount`: Total number of reviews.
  - `bestRating`: The highest possible rating.
  - `ratingValue`: The average rating value.
- `reviewCount`: Total number of reviews.
- `description`: A brief description of the product.
- `image`: An array of product images.

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,getdataforme/sephora-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).
