Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Chemist Warehouse Scraper - Products & Reviews Scrape products and customer reviews from **Chemist Warehouse** (chemistwarehouse.com.au), Australia's largest pharmacy retailer. Search by keyword or scrape specific product pages, and get rich product data plus every individual customer review. ### What you get For every product (44+ fields): - **Identity** - name, brand, manufacturer, product type, SKU, product id, page URL, slug - **Pricing** - price, RRP, discount %, currency - **Availability** - in stock, click & collect, fast delivery, international shipping, marketplace - **Pharmacy** - prescription type, schedule, mandatory statement, adult-product flag - **Content** - description, ingredients, directions, warnings - **Media** - main image + full image gallery - **Categories** - full category path and category keys - **Ratings** - average rating and review count - **Reviews** (optional) - every individual review with **rating, title, author, body text, date, and helpful-vote counts**, plus the star-rating breakdown and true review total - **Extras** - dimensions (H/W/D/weight), pack quantity, multipack quantity, product flags, created date, scrape timestamp ### Input #### Mode - **Search** - run one or more keyword queries with optional brand, category, price and in-stock filters, and price sorting. - **URL** - provide specific Chemist Warehouse product page URLs to scrape. #### Search options | Field | Description | |---|---| | Search keywords | One or more keywords, e.g. `panadol`, `vitamin c`. Leave empty to browse the whole catalogue with the filters below. | | Brand | Restrict to one brand, e.g. `Blackmores` (exact spelling). | | Category | Restrict to one category, e.g. `Vitamins & Supplements` (exact spelling). | | Minimum / Maximum price (AUD) | Price range in whole dollars. | | In-stock only | Exclude out-of-stock products. | | Sort | Relevance (default), price low→high, or price high→low. | #### Reviews | Field | Description | |---|---| | Fetch reviews | Collect individual customer reviews for each product. | | Max reviews per product | Cap on reviews per product. Leave empty for all reviews. | #### Limits - **Max items** is the run cap (default 20). Set to 0 for no item limit. - **Max pages** limits result pages walked per query. Leave empty (0) for no page limit; the run stops at **Max items**. ### Output example ```json { "name": "Blackmores Bio C 1000 150 Tablets", "brand": "Blackmores", "sku": "2720171", "url": "https://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/buy/57134-blackmores-bio-c-1000-150-tablets", "price": 21.99, "rrp": 48.99, "discountPercent": 55.11, "currency": "AUD", "isInStock": true, "rating": 4.6286, "reviewCount": 35, "categories": ["Chemist Warehouse Australia", "Categories", "Vitamins & Supplements"], "ingredients": "Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) ...", "directions": "Adults take 1 tablet a day ...", "warnings": "Vitamin supplements should not replace ...", "images": ["https://static.chemistwarehouse.com.au/..."], "reviews": [ { "rating": 5, "title": "Great product", "author": "belly76", "content": "Works really well ...", "createdAt": "2025-11-20T00:44:12.000+00:00", "positiveFeedbackCount": 2, "negativeFeedbackCount": 0 } ] } ```` ### Proxy & plan Apify Proxy is recommended and enabled by default. The Actor runs on any Apify plan. If results look incomplete, switch the Apify Proxy group in the Proxy input to a higher-reliability option. ### Pricing This Actor uses pay-per-event pricing: a one-time start charge, a per-product charge, and a per-product reviews-enrichment charge that applies only when **Fetch reviews** is enabled. ### Send results into your apps (MCP connectors) Results can be pushed into your apps and workflows via Apify's integrations and MCP connectors. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): How to collect products.
