## 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

## Amazon Search Scraper

Scrape Amazon products from search results. Extract comprehensive product details including titles, prices, ratings, features, descriptions, and availability.

### Key Features

- 🔍 **Keyword Search** - Extract products from Amazon search results by keyword
- 📦 **Product Data** - Titles, prices, ASIN, URLs, and image information
- 🌐 **Proxy Support** - Residential proxy configuration to prevent IP blocking
- ⚡ **Fast Extraction** - Single-page scraping without navigation delays
- 🔒 **Stealth Mode** - Anti-detection features to bypass Amazon protections

### How to Use

1. Set your search keyword (e.g., "laptop", "iphone", "gaming mouse")
2. Configure maximum number of products to extract (1-1000)
3. Enable residential proxies for successful scraping
4. Run the actor to extract product data
5. Download structured JSON results

### Input Configuration

- **Search Keyword** (string, required): Product keyword to search on Amazon
- **Max Products** (number): Maximum number of products to extract (default: 3)
- **Include Variations** (boolean): Extract product variations (optional)
- **Proxy Configuration** (object): Proxy settings - residential proxies recommended

### Output Example

```json
{
  "asin": "B0CHX1W1XY",
  "title": "Apple iPhone 15 Pro MAX",
  "url": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHX1W1XY",
  "imageUrl": "https://m.media-amazon.com/image.jpg",
  "price": "$1,199.00",
  "rating": "4.5",
  "keyword": "iphone",
  "scrapedAt": "2025-11-19T08:32:24.507Z"
}
```

### Cost Information

This actor uses Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing. Enable PPE in your actor settings for monetization.

### Integration Options

- **Apify Workflows** - Chain with other actors for automation
- **Zapier** - Integrate with 10,000+ applications
- **Make/Integromat** - Advanced automation scenarios
- **API** - Direct integration via Apify API

### Support & Troubleshooting

- Common issues: Verify proxy configuration if blocking occurs
- Solutions: Use residential proxies and avoid high concurrency
- Documentation: Check Apify platform docs for usage details
- Support: Contact through Issues tab or Apify Community

# Actor input Schema

## `keyword` (type: `string`):

Enter the product keyword you want to search on Amazon (e.g., 'iphone', 'laptop', 'headphones'). Use specific keywords for better results.

## `maxProducts` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to scrape from search results. Higher values consume more compute units and take longer to complete.

## `includeVariations` (type: `boolean`):

Include different variations of the same product (colors, sizes, storage options). This may increase the number of results.

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

Configure proxies to avoid IP blocking. Using proxies is highly recommended for scraping Amazon to prevent detection and rate limiting.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "keyword": "laptop",
  "maxProducts": 3,
  "includeVariations": false,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}
```

# 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 = {
    "keyword": "laptop",
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": [
            "RESIDENTIAL"
        ]
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("yesintelligent/amazon-search-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 = {
    "keyword": "laptop",
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": True,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    },
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("yesintelligent/amazon-search-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 '{
  "keyword": "laptop",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}' |
apify call yesintelligent/amazon-search-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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