### 🤖 For AI Agents & LLM Apps
Compact reference for AI agents calling this actor via the [Apify MCP server](https://mcp.apify.com) or the Apify API (actor: `memo23/zalando-scraper`).
**Purpose:** Extract product data from Zalando category and search-results URLs — name, brand, SKU, price, sizes, stock status, images and full product detail.
**Minimal input:**
```json
{
"startUrls": [{ "url": "https://en.zalando.de/braided-belt-womens/" }],
"maxItems": 25
}
```
`startUrls` also accepts search-results URLs such as `https://www.zalando.co.uk/men/?q=calvin`.
**Output:** one dataset row per product — `url`, `name`, `sku`, `brand` {name, uri}, `flags`, `comingSoon`, `thumbnail`, `images[]`, `videos[]`, `priceCurrency`, `price` {original, current, promotional}, `sizes[]` {size, sku, stockStatus}, `available`, `sizeAdvice`, `navigationTargetGroup`, and a nested `item` object with internal id, silhouette, supplierName, displayPrice, simples\[], media/packshot/hover image URIs, benefits, and family.
**Behaviors an agent should know:**
- Always set `maxItems` — the default is 100 per crawl; the actor stops once it hits the cap.
- `startUrls` (required) takes both category URLs and search-results (`?q=`) URLs; each yields product rows.
- `maxConcurrency` (default 10), `minConcurrency` (default 1) and `maxRequestRetries` (default 30) tune throughput and reliability.
- Traffic routes through a built-in residential proxy at no extra cost; leave `proxy` empty unless overriding.
- Detail-page fields like sizes and per-size stock status come from Zalando's own product data, not DOM scraping.
- Billing: Pay-per-event billing — see the Pricing tab on the actor page.

# Actor input Schema
## `startUrls` (type: `array`):
URLs to start with.
## `marketplace` (type: `string`):
Country site to scrape when you use the Brand field below. Start URLs always keep their own domain: Zalando category paths are written in each country's language (damenbekleidung, chaussures-femme, dameklaer), so the same path does not exist on another country's site.
## `brand` (type: `string`):
Scrape one brand on the marketplace chosen above, without hunting for a category URL. Use the brand slug exactly as it appears in a Zalando link, for example nike, adidas or vero-moda. Leave empty to use Start URLs only.
## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):
Maximum number of items/products to scrape per crawl, default is 100. The actor will stop scraping when it reaches this number.
## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):
Maximum number of pages that can be processed at the same time.
## `minConcurrency` (type: `integer`):
Minimum number of pages that will be processed at the same time.
## `maxRequestRetries` (type: `integer`):
Number of times the crawler will retry a failed request before giving up.
## `cookies` (type: `array`):
Cookie used to authorize actor with zalando.com. Install EditThisCookie chrome extension. Login to your zalando.com account. Click on the extension and export the zalando.com cookies. Insert the contents here
## `proxy` (type: `object`):
Leave empty — the actor already routes all traffic through its own built-in residential proxy at no extra cost to you. Only set this if you want to use your own proxies.

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 ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
