## 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

## 1stDibs Scraper - Luxury Furniture & Art Prices

Scrape luxury furniture, art, jewelry, and antiques listings from 1stDibs. Extract prices, dealer info, materials, dimensions, and images.

### Getting started

Open the Input tab, choose the inputs below, then start the Actor. Begin with a small result limit to check the returned records before a larger run. Results are stored in the run's default dataset and can be downloaded as JSON or CSV.

### Inputs

| Input | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `searchQueries` | array | List of search terms (e.g., 'mid century modern chair', 'art deco lamp', 'tiffany jewelry'). Each query generates a separate set of results from the 1stDibs marketplace. Default: `["mid century modern chair"]`. |
| `category` | string | Filter results by 1stDibs category. Leave empty to search all categories. Choices: \`\`, `furniture`, `art`, `jewelry`, `fashion`, `decor-and-accessories`, `building-and-garden`. Default: `""`. |
| `maxListings` | integer | Maximum number of listings to scrape per search query. 1stDibs returns ~57 results per page. Set to 0 for unlimited. Default: `50`. |
| `scrapeDetails` | boolean | If enabled, visits each listing page for full description, all photos, seller info, condition, style, materials, dimensions, and period. Slower but much richer data. Default: `false`. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Proxy settings used by this Actor. Proxy use can add platform costs. Default: `{"useApifyProxy":false}`. |

### Results

The configured dataset views expose these fields. Which values are present depends on the source record and the selected options.

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `title` | Title |
| `price` | Price |
| `currency` | Currency |
| `dealer` | Dealer |
| `location` | Location |
| `materials` | Materials |
| `period` | Period |
| `url` | Listing URL |
| `imageUrl` | Image |
| `searchQuery` | Query |

### Notes

- Prices and availability describe the source response at the time of the run. A listing price is not evidence of a completed sale unless the source explicitly identifies it as such.
- Optional detail extraction can add fields and increase run time.
- A successful build does not guarantee that a source will remain reachable. Review run logs and returned records before relying on a scheduled export.
- Current charges are shown in the Actor Pricing tab.

# Actor input Schema

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

List of search terms (e.g., 'mid century modern chair', 'art deco lamp', 'tiffany jewelry'). Each query generates a separate set of results from the 1stDibs marketplace.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Filter results by 1stDibs category. Leave empty to search all categories.

## `maxListings` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of listings to scrape per search query. 1stDibs returns ~57 results per page. Set to 0 for unlimited.

## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

If enabled, visits each listing page for full description, all photos, seller info, condition, style, materials, dimensions, and period. Slower but much richer data.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Recommended for large-scale runs to avoid rate limiting on 1stDibs.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "searchQueries": [
    "mid century modern chair"
  ],
  "category": "",
  "maxListings": 50,
  "scrapeDetails": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

# 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 = {
    "searchQueries": [
        "mid century modern chair"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("lulzasaur/1stdibs-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 = { "searchQueries": ["mid century modern chair"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("lulzasaur/1stdibs-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}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "searchQueries": [
    "mid century modern chair"
  ]
}' |
apify call lulzasaur/1stdibs-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,lulzasaur/1stdibs-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).
