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/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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 ## USITC HTS Tariff Revision Diff Monitor See what changed between two official U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule releases without manually comparing 35,000-row files. The Actor discovers USITC's JSON releases, validates their schema, and emits one normalized record per added, removed, or substantively modified HTS number. ### Built for - Customs brokers and import-compliance teams monitoring product catalogs. - Procurement and sourcing teams assessing tariff exposure. - Trade counsel and researchers reviewing duty and classification changes. - Data teams feeding tariff changes into ERP, alerting, and BI workflows. ### Differentiation HTS lookup tools answer what a code says now. This Actor answers what changed from one official revision to the next. Each record includes before/after descriptions and duty fields, changed-field flags, stable keys, publication metadata, and both official source URLs. Whitespace-only source corrections are suppressed. ### Example input ```json { "year": 2026, "fromRevision": 10, "toRevision": 11, "htsPrefixes": ["84", "85"], "changeTypes": ["added", "removed", "modified"], "dutyChangesOnly": false, "maxResults": 500 } ```` Omit both revision numbers to compare the latest release with its immediate predecessor automatically. ### Important limitation This Actor performs informational change detection. USITC states that search information is advisory and not a binding classification ruling. Verify all relevant HTS provisions and consult U.S. Customs and Border Protection, a licensed customs broker, or qualified trade counsel before acting on a classification or duty decision. # Actor input Schema ## `year` (type: `integer`): Edition year to compare. Leave empty to use the current year. ## `fromRevision` (type: `integer`): Optional earlier revision number. Use 0 for the Basic Edition. Leave both revisions empty for latest vs previous. ## `toRevision` (type: `integer`): Optional later revision number. Provide together with Earlier Revision. ## `htsPrefixes` (type: `array`): Optional code prefixes such as 84, 3004, or 8507.20. Punctuation is ignored when matching. ## `changeTypes` (type: `array`): Types of code-level changes to return. ## `dutyChangesOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only return records with a non-empty general, special, column 2, or additional-duty value added, removed, or modified. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum change records written to the dataset. ## Actor input object example ```json { "htsPrefixes": [], "changeTypes": [ "added", "removed", "modified" ], "dutyChangesOnly": false, "maxResults": 500 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description ## `summary` (type: `string`): No description # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("aether_studio/usitc-hts-revision-diff-monitor").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); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
