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 **Collect every product URL from any [John Lewis](https://www.johnlewis.com/) category, brand, or search page — across all pagination, including every colour variant.** Paste a listing URL, get a clean dataset of product URLs ready to plug straight into the [John Lewis Product Details Crawler](https://apify.com/alkausari_mujahid/johnlewis-products-details-crawler) — or use however you like. > Built and maintained by **Alkausari M**. --- ### ✦ Highlights - ⚡ **Fast pagination** — walks every page in the listing automatically - 🎨 **Colour variants included** — captures each variant URL, not just the parent product - 📊 **Any format** — JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or live via the Apify API - 💰 **Predictable cost** — pay per URL collected - 🖱 **Zero code** — paste a URL, click Start - 🛡 **Anti-blocking built-in** — residential proxies, rotation, smart retries --- ### ⚙ How it works 1. **Paste a URL** — category, brand, or search results page from John Lewis. 2. **Click Start** — pagination, proxies, and retries handled for you. 3. **Download or pipe** — JSON, CSV, Excel, or pull straight from the API. ```jsonc // Example input { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.johnlewis.com/brand/flexlux/_/N-pze9" } ], "lastPageNum": 0, "maxRequestsPerCrawl": 50, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` - **`lastPageNum`** — max page number per URL. Enter a big number to crawl all pages. - **`maxRequestsPerCrawl`** — hard cap on total pages across all URLs. `0` = unlimited. This Actor is the **first stage** of a two-Actor pipeline. Feed the URL dataset into the companion **[John Lewis Product Details Crawler](https://apify.com/alkausari_mujahid/johnlewis-products-details-crawler)** to extract full product data — prices, sizes, images, specs, stock. *** ### 📦 What you get back Each item in the dataset is one product variant URL: You can group variants by product id like `p113951807` ```json [ { "url": "https://www.johnlewis.com/flexlux-volden-relax-recliner-chair/copparo-sandy-biege/p113091750" }, { "url": "https://www.johnlewis.com/flexlux-volden-relax-recliner-chair/copparo-deep-forest-grey/p113091750" }, { "url": "https://www.johnlewis.com/flexlux-volden-relax-recliner-chair/dakota-modern-cognac-brown/p113091750" } ] ``` Download as **JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML** from the run's **Storage** tab — or pull live via the Apify API. *** ### 💡 Use cases - **Catalogue building** — retailers and resellers can build a complete product feed from any John Lewis brand or category. - **Price & stock tracking** — collect URLs daily and feed them into the details crawler to track changes over time. - **Market research** — see what's available in a specific category, brand, or price range. - **Inventory sync** — dropshippers can keep listings in sync by re-running whenever stock or variants change. - **Full-data pipelines** — pair with the [Product Details Crawler](https://apify.com/alkausari_mujahid/johnlewis-products-details-crawler) for complete product records — titles, prices, size options, images, descriptions, availability. *** ### 📮 Support Bugs, feature requests, or custom scraping work — open an issue on Apify or email ****. *** Built by **Alkausari M**.
