## Pricing

from $5.00 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

### Input parameters

Provide one or more search queries, choose a Nykaa category, or combine both.

| Parameter | Required | Description |
|-----------|----------|-------------|
| `queries` | No | Beauty product search terms (e.g. `lipstick`, `shampoo`). Optional if `category` is set. |
| `category` | No | Top-level Nykaa category to browse or constrain search within. Default `all`. |
| `subcategorySlug` | No | Optional deeper refinement (e.g. `matte lipstick`, `sulphate free shampoo`). |
| `sortBy` | No | Result order: relevance, popularity, price (low-high or high-low), newest, rating, or discount. Default `relevance`. |
| `minPrice` | No | Minimum price in INR. |
| `maxPrice` | No | Maximum price in INR. |
| `maxResults` | No | Maximum products per query, up to 1,000. Default `10`. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | No | Network routing settings. Defaults are tuned for reliable access; most users can leave this as-is. |

```json
{
  "queries": ["vitamin c serum", "lipstick"],
  "category": "skin",
  "sortBy": "relevance",
  "maxResults": 100
}
```

### Example output

```json
{
  "product_id": "123456",
  "product_name": "Vitamin C Face Serum",
  "brand": "Example Brand",
  "price": 699,
  "original_price": 899,
  "discount_percent": 22,
  "currency": "INR",
  "rating": 4.4,
  "rating_count": 1820,
  "image_url": "https://...",
  "url": "https://www.nykaa.com/...",
  "category": "Skin",
  "in_stock": true,
  "source_query": "vitamin c serum"
}
```

### Integrations

Export results through the Apify dataset API or connect the Actor to webhooks, Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, cloud warehouses, BI tools, and AI workflows.

### Limitations

- Nykaa periodically redesigns its product and category pages; field coverage is reviewed and updated as that happens.
- Optional fields such as rating, rating count, discount percentage, and stock status are only returned when Nykaa publishes them for that listing.
- Category and subcategory coverage follows Nykaa's own site taxonomy, so a slug that doesn't exist on Nykaa will return no results.

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",

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).
