## Pricing

from $4.99 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

## Nordstrom Scraper

**Products from Nordstrom.com — category listings and full product pages with every size and colour, as clean JSON.**

Scrapes Nordstrom.com category pages and product pages: product names, brands, prices, ratings and
review counts from listings, plus full product records with description, features, colours,
photos, and every size variant with its price and stock. Point it at any Nordstrom category —
dresses, men's shoes, a designer, a sale page, with whatever filters you set on the site — and get
every product back, or add product URLs for the complete record. Built for price and markdown
monitoring, assortment analysis, and fashion market research.

### ⚡ Quick start

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.nordstrom.com/browse/women/clothing/dresses"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 5
}
```

### 🧩 Input

| Field                | Type    | Required | Default                                                                                     | Description                                                                                                              |
| -------------------- | ------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `startUrls`          | array   | yes      | —                                                                                           | Nordstrom URLs to scrape. Category pages (`/browse/...`, with any filters applied) and product pages (`/s/<name>/<id>`). |
| `maxItems`           | integer | no       | `5`                                                                                         | Maximum number of products to return per start URL.                                                                      |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object  | no       | `{ "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"], "apifyProxyCountry": "US" }` | Proxy settings. Nordstrom is protected by Kasada, so US residential proxies are used by default.                         |

### 📤 Output

Every product is one dataset row. The `itemType` field tells the two shapes apart: `search` for a
product from a category page and `product` for a product page. A search item is Nordstrom's own
listing record: the fields below plus the rest of the record (selling brand, style group,
partner data, ...). A product item is the full record, with one entry per size and colour.

### 💡 Use cases

- **Price and markdown monitoring** — track selling prices and clearance markdowns per size and colour.
- **Stock tracking** — watch the quantity available to ship for the sizes and colours you care about.
- **Assortment analysis** — see which brands, styles, and price points a category carries.
- **Fashion market research** — compare ratings, fit feedback, and review volume across products.

### ❓ FAQ

- **Do I need a proxy?** Yes. Nordstrom is protected by Kasada, so the Actor runs a real browser on Apify US residential proxies by default; other settings are likely to be blocked.
- **Can I scrape keyword searches?** No — Nordstrom's robots.txt disallows its search pages, so the Actor takes category pages (`/browse/...`) and product pages. Every product is reachable through a category.
- **How many results can I get?** `maxItems` caps results per start URL, and the Actor pages through the category automatically.
- **Why is the price a string?** It is kept exactly as Nordstrom formats it, e.g. `"24.50"`.
- **Why did a run return fewer items than expected?** The site may have changed its layout or tightened its protection, or a product may be unavailable. Open an issue and we will update the Actor.

# Actor input Schema

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

Nordstrom URLs to scrape. Category pages (for example https://www.nordstrom.com/browse/women/clothing/dresses, with any filters applied) and product pages (https://www.nordstrom.com/s/bp-fleece-hoodie/7786657) are both supported.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to return per start URL. A category page carries about 75 products, so the default finishes in a single request.

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

Apify proxy settings. Nordstrom is protected by Kasada, so US residential proxies are used by default.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.nordstrom.com/browse/women/clothing/dresses"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "US"
  }

// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',

```

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).
