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 Detect the active theme on any Shopify storefront. Given one or more store URLs, the actor fetches each page, checks for Shopify signals, and returns fully flattened theme metadata. **You are only charged for URLs where theme data was successfully extracted.** URLs that are not Shopify stores, or Shopify stores using a fully custom theme, are recorded in the run stats but do not count toward your usage. ### Features - **Shopify Detection**: Identifies Shopify stores by the presence of `cdn.shopify.com` in the page HTML - **Theme Metadata**: Extracts theme name, ID, schema name, schema version, role, and theme store ID - **Theme Style**: Captures the active style variant (`theme_style_id` and `theme_style_handle`) - **Theme Store Flag**: Reports `is_theme_store_theme` — whether the theme originates from the public Shopify Theme Store - **Custom Theme Handling**: Shopify stores that use a fully custom theme (no standard Shopify script) are detected as Shopify but skipped from results and logged in stats ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Default | Description | | ---------- | ------- | -------- | ------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | `urls` | array | Yes | — | Store URLs to check, e.g. `["https://allbirds.com"]` | | `maxItems` | integer | No | `100` | Maximum number of URLs to process | ### Output #### Dataset Only URLs where theme data was **successfully extracted** (`theme_detected: true`) appear in the dataset. ```json { "url": "https://allbirds.com", "handle": "allbirds", "locale": "en", "theme_name": "Horizon", "theme_id": 141419118701, "theme_schema_name": "Horizon", "theme_schema_version": "3.2.1", "theme_store_id": 2481, "theme_role": "main", "theme_handle": "horizon", "theme_style_id": null, "theme_style_handle": null, "is_theme_store_theme": true, "scraped_at": "2025-06-29T10:00:00.000Z" } ```` | Field | Type | Description | | ---------------------- | --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `url` | string | The input URL | | `handle` | string | null | Store subdomain, e.g. `allbirds` (from `allbirds.myshopify.com`) | | `locale` | string | null | Active store locale, e.g. `en` | | `theme_name` | string | null | Display name of the active theme | | `theme_id` | number | null | Shopify internal theme ID | | `theme_schema_name` | string | null | Theme schema name (may differ from display name for customised themes) | | `theme_schema_version` | string | null | Semantic version of the theme schema, e.g. `3.2.1` | | `theme_store_id` | number | null | Theme Store listing ID; `null` for custom or private themes | | `theme_role` | string | null | Theme role, typically `main` | | `theme_handle` | string | null | URL handle of the theme in the Theme Store; `null` if not from Theme Store | | `theme_style_id` | number | null | Active style variant ID | | `theme_style_handle` | string | null | Active style variant handle | | `is_theme_store_theme` | boolean | null | `true` if the theme originates from the public Shopify Theme Store | | `scraped_at` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp of when the URL was scraped | #### Stats (Key-Value Store) After each run, a `stats` record is saved to the key-value store with a full breakdown of all processed URLs: ```json { "total": 10, "succeeded": 6, "failed": 1, "not_shopify": ["https://wordpress-site.com", "https://not-a-store.com"], "shopify_no_theme": ["https://headless-shopify-store.com"] } ``` | Field | Description | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `total` | Total number of URLs processed | | `succeeded` | URLs where theme data was extracted and saved to the dataset | | `failed` | URLs that could not be fetched (network errors, HTTP errors, etc.) | | `not_shopify` | URLs with no `cdn.shopify.com` signal — not identified as Shopify stores | | `shopify_no_theme` | Confirmed Shopify stores where the theme script could not be parsed (custom/headless themes) | ### Usage Examples #### Detect theme for a single store ```json { "urls": ["https://allbirds.com"] } ``` #### Batch detect themes for multiple stores ```json { "urls": ["https://allbirds.com", "https://gymshark.com", "https://fashionnova.com"], "maxItems": 50 } ``` # Actor input Schema ## `urls` (type: `array`): List of store URLs to check. Each URL is fetched and parsed for Shopify theme data. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of URLs to process. ## Actor input object example ```json { "urls": [ "https://example.myshopify.com" ], "maxItems": 100 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): URL of the dataset with the results ## `crawlStats` (type: `string`): Statistics about the crawl process # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
