## 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

## eBay Product Scraper

Scrape eBay product listings with prices, seller info, and condition details. Extract product data from search results across all eBay categories.

### 💰 Pricing

This Actor uses the **Pay Per Event** pricing model:

| Event | Price |
|-------|-------|
| Actor run | $0.00005 |
| Per product scraped | $0.004 |

For example, scraping 500 products costs: $0.00005 + (500 × $0.004) = **$2.00**

### 📥 Input

| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
|-------|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `queries` | array | ✅ | `["laptop"]` | Product search terms to scrape from eBay |
| `maxResults` | integer | ❌ | `50` | Maximum number of products to scrape per query |
| `condition` | string | ❌ | `"all"` | Filter by item condition: `new`, `used`, `refurbished`, `all` |
| `sortBy` | string | ❌ | `"best_match"` | Sort results by: `best_match`, `price_asc`, `price_desc`, `newly_listed`, `ending_soonest` |
| `minDelay` | integer | ❌ | `2` | Minimum delay between requests (seconds) |
| `maxDelay` | integer | ❌ | `5` | Maximum delay between requests (seconds) |

#### Example Input

```json
{
  "queries": ["iphone 15", "macbook pro"],
  "maxResults": 100,
  "condition": "new",
  "sortBy": "price_asc",
  "minDelay": 2,
  "maxDelay": 5
}
```

### 📤 Output

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `itemId` | string | eBay item ID |
| `title` | string | Product title |
| `price` | string | Product price |
| `currency` | string | Currency code (USD, EUR, GBP) |
| `condition` | string | Item condition (New, Used, Refurbished) |
| `seller` | string | Seller username |
| `sellerScore` | string | Seller feedback score |
| `shipping` | string | Shipping information |
| `location` | string | Item location |
| `imageUrl` | string | Product image URL |
| `url` | string | Product listing URL |
| `query` | string | Search query used |

#### Example Output

```json
{
  "itemId": "123456789",
  "title": "Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max 256GB Unlocked",
  "price": "999.99",
  "currency": "USD",
  "condition": "New",
  "seller": "techstore2024",
  "sellerScore": "15,234",
  "shipping": "Free shipping",
  "location": "New York, NY",
  "imageUrl": "https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/...",
  "url": "https://www.ebay.com/itm/123456789",
  "query": "iphone 15"
}
```

### 🔧 How It Works

1. Uses Playwright browser to navigate eBay search results
2. Extracts product data via JavaScript injection
3. Handles pagination to fetch multiple pages
4. Implements random delays to avoid rate limiting
5. Supports filtering by condition and sorting options

### 🔗 Integration

- **Zapier**: Use the "Run Actor" action with dataset polling
- **Make.com**: Use the HTTP module to call the Actor API
- **n8n**: Use the Apify node or HTTP Request node
- **OpenAI MCP**: Connect via the Apify MCP server

### ⚠️ Notes

- Respects eBay's rate limits with configurable delays
- Some products may have limited seller information
- Image URLs are direct links to eBay image servers
- Works with all eBay regional sites (ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, etc.)

# 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 = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("admo-solutions/ebay-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);
});

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 = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("admo-solutions/ebay-product-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

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 '{}' |
apify call admo-solutions/ebay-product-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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