## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Zid Product Scraper — Arabic Prices & Availability

Collect public Zid product names, SKU, prices, currency, stock and images from Product JSON-LD. Accept product or catalog URLs, follow linked product pages and export Arabic text without a merchant key.

### Quick start

1. Paste your public URLs or records into the input form. The example is a small live smoke test.
2. Set **Maximum delivered results** and Apify's **Maximum cost per run**.
3. Run the Actor. Export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel. Open **Run report** for errors, skipped items and limits.

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://oav.zid.store/products/jade"
  ],
  "discoverProducts": false,
  "maxPages": 10,
  "maxResults": 10
}
```

### What it supports

Supports Zid storefront pages with Product JSON-LD, including custom domains that identify Zid assets. Direct product URLs are the most predictable input. discoverProducts follows public /products links on the input hosts, including linked pagination, up to maxPages. It does not guarantee a complete catalog, enumerate hidden variants or use private merchant APIs. Missing price/stock fields remain null. The first offer or aggregate low price is returned. JavaScript-only product data is not supported. Arabic strings are preserved.

### Price

**$0.0030 per product ($3 per 1,000)**, plus **$0.001 per run start** at the supported 512 MB–1 GB memory sizes. The custom `result` event is charged only for a delivered dataset row. There is no separate automatic dataset-row fee. A run that returns zero rows still incurs the start fee. Your account's displayed pricing and platform terms apply. Actor authors pay their own platform resource costs during development and testing.

Set the maximum cost in Apify to cap spending. maxResults also limits output. A limit may truncate a catalog or comparison; inspect RUN\_REPORT rather than assuming completeness.

### Output and reliability

Main fields: `name`, `sku`, `price`, `currency`, `inStock`, `url`. Each row includes `observedAt`. Nested values remain JSON; choose JSON export to preserve all detail.

RUN\_REPORT contains result count, HTTP request/download totals, source errors, skipped unchanged items and final status. PARTIAL means at least one source failed while other rows were delivered. FAILED means no successful result and at least one error. Successful empty feeds or no-change comparisons can legitimately return zero rows. A 240-second processing deadline and Apify's run timeout bound execution. Downloads are limited to 40 MB per run, with smaller per-response caps; robots checks count as requests. No proxy or external AI API subscription is required.

Only public pages and documented public APIs are supported. Access restrictions are reported. The crawler does not send your Apify token to target websites or connect to private network addresses. Use sources you are entitled to access. Static HTML tools do not execute website JavaScript.

### Repeated runs

For Actors with `stateStoreName`, use a distinct name for each collection and keep the same name for later runs. Apify creates that store in your account; storage retention and access follow your account settings. Do not start overlapping runs that share a store. `onlyChanges` emits new/updated items and retains at most 10,000 recent fingerprints. It does not infer removed pages/jobs. Other Actors are stateless: supply fresh inputs, or feed their datasets into the Dataset Change Detector.

Apify tasks, schedules and integrations can reuse this input. No recurring schedule or customer notification is created automatically.

أداة جاهزة للتشغيل من واجهة Apify أو API. أدخل الروابط أو البيانات، وحدد عدد النتائج والحد الأعلى للتكلفة. النتائج بصيغ JSON وCSV وExcel، والتفاصيل والأخطاء في RUN\_REPORT. البيانات العامة فقط؛ الحقول غير المتوفرة تبقى فارغة. راجع حدود الأداة أعلاه قبل اعتماد النتائج.

Product deduplication uses the absolute product URL (without its fragment/trailing slash), independently of SKU or productID changes. Prices and publication visibility are unchanged.

# 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 = {
    "urls": [
        "https://oav.zid.store/products/jade"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("abdulwhab95/zid-public-product-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);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "urls": [
    "https://oav.zid.store/products/jade"
  ]
}' |
apify call abdulwhab95/zid-public-product-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,abdulwhab95/zid-public-product-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).
