## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Shopify Store Scraper with Catalogue Analytics

Export any Shopify store's full catalogue — and get the pricing, stock and launch-cadence numbers calculated for you.

Most Shopify scrapers hand you a list of products. This one also tells you what the catalogue *means*: where the price sits, how much of the range is actually buyable today, and how fast the store ships new products.

No login, no API key, no store permission needed. It reads the public storefront feed that every Shopify shop publishes.

### What you get

#### Per product

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `title`, `handle`, `url` | Product name and clean link |
| `price`, `priceMax` | Real selling price range across variants |
| `compareAtPrice`, `discountPercent`, `isDiscounted` | Genuine markdowns only — a compare-at price equal to the selling price is not counted as a discount |
| `currency` | Read from the store, not guessed |
| `inStock`, `stockRate`, `availableVariantCount` | **Live stock signal** — the same flag the storefront uses to grey out a sold-out size |
| `variantCount`, `options` | How the range is built (sizes, colours) |
| `productType`, `vendor`, `tags` | The store's own taxonomy |
| `sku`, `grams` | Identifiers and shipping weight |
| `publishedAt`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt` | When it launched and last changed |
| `imageCount`, `featuredImage` | Imagery |
| `isLikelyAddOn` | Flags shipping protection, gift cards, warranties — priced like products but not merchandise |

#### Per store — a free profile record

Store name, currency, country, city, Shopify store ID and `.myshopify.com` domain. Useful on its own for qualifying leads and confirming a site really is Shopify.

#### Per store — a free analytics record

- **Price**: min, max, average, median, 25th and 75th percentile
- **Discounting**: how many products are marked down, average and deepest discount
- **Availability**: in-stock share, out-of-stock count
- **Launch cadence**: new products per month for the last 12 months, plus counts for the last 30 and 90 days
- **Assortment**: product types and vendors ranked, median price per product type, top tags
- **Range depth**: average variants per product

Both extra records are free — you are only charged for products.

### Two things this scraper is honest about

**Add-ons are excluded from the statistics.** A store selling $0.80 shipping insurance would otherwise report a minimum price of $0.80. Those rows are still returned and flagged with `isLikelyAddOn`, but `merchandiseCount` and every price figure cover real products.

**A partial scrape says so.** If the run stops at your `maxProducts` limit, the analytics record carries `isPartialSample: true` and a note. The numbers then describe the products scraped, not the whole shop. Raise the limit for store-wide figures.

### Input

```json
{
  "storeUrls": ["allbirds.com", "deathwishcoffee.com"],
  "maxProducts": 5000,
  "includeStoreProfile": true,
  "includeAnalytics": true
}
```

A bare domain is enough. Any page of the store works too — it is reduced to the storefront automatically.

#### Filters

- `availableOnly` — skip products where every variant is sold out
- `discountedOnly` — only genuine markdowns
- `createdWithinDays` — only recently launched products, the fastest way to see what a competitor just released
- `minPrice` / `maxPrice`, `productType`, `vendor`

### Common uses

- **Competitor monitoring** — schedule a daily run and watch prices, stock and new launches move
- **Price benchmarking** — compare your range against several stores in one run
- **Dropshipping and sourcing** — find what a supplier carries and at what price
- **Lead qualification** — confirm a domain is Shopify and read its size, currency and country
- **Catalogue migration** — export a full product list with variants and images

### Notes and limits

- Works on the public storefront feed. Products hidden from the online store are not in it, and neither are exact inventory numbers — Shopify publishes availability, not stock counts.
- Some merchants put a CDN in front of their storefront and block automated requests. When that happens the run returns a `status` record for that store explaining why, instead of silently returning nothing.
- Prices are whatever the storefront shows for the region the request comes from.
- Only public data is collected. No login, no customer data, no order data.
- Independent tool. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Shopify Inc.

### Pairs well with

**[Shopify Store Contact Finder – Emails, Phones & Socials](https://apify.com/anatolia-data/shopify-store-contacts)** — run the same store list through it to get each store's public email, phone, Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. You only pay for stores where contacts are found.

### Pricing

Pay per product returned. Store profile and analytics records are free. You can cap spend per run with **Max cost per run** in the Apify Console — the scraper stops cleanly when it reaches your limit.

### Support

Something missing or wrong? Open an issue on the **Issues** tab with the input you used and the run ID.

# Actor input Schema

## `storeUrls` (type: `array`):

One store per line. A bare domain is enough — allbirds.com. Any page of the store works too; it is reduced to the storefront automatically.

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Same as above, for when you have a long list of stores to load from a file or another Actor.

## `maxProducts` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many products per store. Shopify returns 250 per page.

## `availableOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Drop products where every variant is sold out.

## `discountedOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Only products actually marked down. A compare-at price equal to the selling price does not count as a discount.

## `createdWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

Only products first added to the store recently — the fastest way to watch what a competitor just launched. Uses the creation date, so a bulk republish of old products does not count as new.

## `minPrice` (type: `integer`):

In the store's own currency.

## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`):

In the store's own currency.

## `productType` (type: `string`):

Exact product type as the store labels it, for example Shoes. Case-insensitive.

## `vendor` (type: `string`):

Exact vendor or brand name as the store labels it. Case-insensitive.

## `includeStoreProfile` (type: `boolean`):

Adds one record per store: name, currency, country, Shopify ID and myshopify domain. Free — not charged as a product.

## `includeAnalytics` (type: `boolean`):

Adds one statistics record per store: price distribution, discount depth, in-stock rate, new products per month, top product types, vendors and tags. Free — not charged as a product.

## `includeCollections` (type: `boolean`):

Also reads the store's public collection list. Adds one extra request per store.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy is recommended when scraping many stores at once.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many requests run at once. Lower it if a store starts rate-limiting.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "storeUrls": [
    "allbirds.com"
  ],
  "startUrls": [],

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "storeUrls": [
    "allbirds.com"
  ]
}' |
apify call anatolia-data/shopify-store-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,anatolia-data/shopify-store-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).
