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 ## Ankorstore Products & Brands Scraper Scrape public Ankorstore marketplace product and brand listings for wholesale catalog research, brand discovery, sourcing, and competitor monitoring. ### What does Ankorstore Products & Brands Scraper do? Ankorstore Products & Brands Scraper extracts public product cards from Ankorstore category, collection, brand, and product pages. It turns marketplace pages into a clean dataset with product names, brand names, prices, image URLs, category breadcrumbs, product URLs, brand URLs, and optional product-detail metadata such as descriptions, SKU values, tags, and country-of-origin labels. ### Who is it for? - ๐Ÿ›๏ธ Retail buyers who want to discover wholesale brands in a niche. - ๐Ÿ“ฆ Ecommerce teams building supplier watchlists. - ๐Ÿ“Š Market researchers tracking catalog depth and wholesale pricing. - ๐Ÿงพ Agencies preparing prospect lists for independent brands. - ๐Ÿง  Data teams enriching internal product intelligence systems. ### Why use this scraper? Ankorstore pages contain structured product cards in server-rendered HTML. This actor collects that public information without browser overhead and exports rows that are ready for spreadsheets, BI tools, CRMs, and automated workflows. ### Data you can extract | Field | Description | | --- | --- | | `productId` | Numeric product identifier parsed from the Ankorstore URL. | | `productName` | Product title shown on Ankorstore. | | `productUrl` | Full product page URL. | | `brandId` | Numeric brand identifier parsed from the brand URL. | | `brandName` | Supplier or brand name. | | `brandUrl` | Full Ankorstore brand page URL. | | `imageUrl` | Main public product image URL. | | `price` | Public hidden wholesale price metadata when present. | | `currency` | Price currency, usually EUR. | | `category` | Current category title. | | `categoryPath` | Breadcrumb path for the listing page. | | `description` | Product description when detail enrichment is enabled. | | `sku` | SKU from product structured data when available. | | `tags` | Product tags/badges such as Made in Italy. | | `madeIn` | Country-of-origin tags extracted from tags. | | `sourceUrl` | Page where the row was discovered. | | `scrapedAt` | ISO timestamp for the scrape. | ### How much does it cost to scrape Ankorstore products? The actor uses pay-per-event pricing: a small run start fee plus a per-result fee for each saved listing. Exact tiered platform pricing is set during cloud validation. You can keep first runs cheap by using a single category URL, `maxItems` between 10 and 50, and `includeProductDetails` set to `false`. ### How to use it 1. Open a public Ankorstore category page such as a `/shop/...` URL. 2. Paste the URL into **Ankorstore start URLs**. 3. Set **Maximum listings**. 4. Keep **Fetch product detail pages** off for fast listing-only results. 5. Run the actor and download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or via API. ### Input options - `startUrls` โ€” category, collection, search, brand, or product URLs. - `searchQueries` โ€” optional phrases used to construct `/search?text=` URLs. - `categoryPaths` โ€” `/shop/` paths without the domain. - `maxItems` โ€” total row cap. - `maxPagesPerUrl` โ€” pagination cap per source URL. - `includeProductDetails` โ€” enriches each row with product-page structured data. - `locale` โ€” regional Ankorstore subdomain for generated URLs. ### Example input ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.ankorstore.com/shop/food-drinks-1262/teas-coffee-hot-drinks-1716/coffee-chicory-1735" } ], "maxItems": 25, "maxPagesPerUrl": 1, "includeProductDetails": false, "locale": "en" } ```` ### Example output ```json { "productId": "2687991", "productName": "O'CCAFFE' - Intenso 1kg", "productUrl": "https://www.ankorstore.com/brand/occaffe-27940/occaffe-intenso-1kg-2687991", "brandId": "27940", "brandName": "O'CCAFFรˆ", "price": 14.61, "currency": "EUR", "category": "Coffee & Chicory", "categoryPath": "Teas, Coffee & Hot Drinks > Coffee & Chicory" } ``` ### Tips for reliable runs - Use category URLs for the most reliable server-rendered product lists. - Increase `maxPagesPerUrl` when a category has many pages. - Enable detail enrichment only when you need descriptions or SKUs. - Keep `maxItems` small while testing a new category. - Search URLs may expose fewer server-rendered results than category pages. ### Integrations - ๐Ÿ“ˆ Send datasets to Google Sheets for sourcing reports. - ๐Ÿงพ Export CSV files for buyer review. - ๐Ÿง  Use JSON output in a product intelligence pipeline. - ๐Ÿ”” Schedule recurring runs to watch new products in a category. - ๐Ÿค Push brand URLs into a CRM for supplier outreach. ### API usage #### Node.js ```js import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN }); const run = await client.actor('automation-lab/ankorstore-products-brands-scraper').call({ startUrls: [{ url: 'https://www.ankorstore.com/shop/food-drinks-1262/teas-coffee-hot-drinks-1716/coffee-chicory-1735' }], maxItems: 25 }); console.log(run.defaultDatasetId); ``` #### Python ```python from apify_client import ApifyClient client = ApifyClient('APIFY_TOKEN') run = client.actor('automation-lab/ankorstore-products-brands-scraper').call(run_input={ 'startUrls': [{'url': 'https://www.ankorstore.com/shop/food-drinks-1262/teas-coffee-hot-drinks-1716/coffee-chicory-1735'}], 'maxItems': 25, }) print(run['defaultDatasetId']) ``` #### cURL ```bash curl -X POST 'https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/automation-lab~ankorstore-products-brands-scraper/runs?token=APIFY_TOKEN' \ -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -d '{"startUrls":[{"url":"https://www.ankorstore.com/shop/food-drinks-1262/teas-coffee-hot-drinks-1716/coffee-chicory-1735"}],"maxItems":25}' ``` ### MCP usage Use this actor from Claude Desktop or Claude Code through Apify MCP with: `https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automation-lab/ankorstore-products-brands-scraper` Claude Code setup: ```bash claude mcp add apify-ankorstore https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automation-lab/ankorstore-products-brands-scraper ``` Claude Desktop JSON configuration: ```json { "mcpServers": { "apify-ankorstore": { "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=automation-lab/ankorstore-products-brands-scraper" } } } ``` Example prompts: - "Scrape 50 Ankorstore coffee products and summarize the top brands." - "Find public Ankorstore product URLs in this category and export a CSV." - "Monitor this Ankorstore category weekly and flag new brand names." ### Output quality notes The actor extracts public marketplace metadata. Some prices and details may be hidden or unavailable depending on Ankorstore's current public page content, locale, and category. Missing data is returned as `null` instead of guessed values. ### Limitations Ankorstore is a marketplace for retailers and brands. Some data may require login or a retailer account and is not collected by this actor. The actor focuses on public pages and public structured data only. ### Legality This actor is designed to collect publicly available data. You are responsible for using the output lawfully, respecting Ankorstore terms, privacy rules, and applicable data-protection laws. Do not use scraped data for spam or prohibited outreach. ### FAQ #### Why did my search query return zero rows? Some Ankorstore search pages are less complete in server-rendered HTML than category pages. Use a `/shop/...` category URL when possible. #### Why are descriptions empty? Enable `includeProductDetails` to open product pages and extract descriptions and SKUs. Listing-only mode is faster and cheaper. #### Can I scrape private wholesale account data? No. This actor collects public page data only and does not log in to Ankorstore. ### Related scrapers - https://apify.com/automation-lab/google-maps-lead-finder - https://apify.com/automation-lab/trustpilot-scraper - https://apify.com/automation-lab/yellow-pages-scraper - https://apify.com/automation-lab/product-hunt-scraper ### Changelog - Initial version extracts Ankorstore public product cards, brands, category breadcrumbs, images, and prices. ### Support If a public category URL stops returning rows, share the run URL and input so the actor can be adjusted to current Ankorstore markup. ### Category ideas to try - Coffee & Chicory: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Candles & Home Fragrances: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Skincare: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Greeting Cards: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Jewellery: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Baby Toys: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Home Textiles: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Soft Drinks: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Tea: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Stationery: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Fashion Accessories: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Tableware: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Pet Accessories: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Chocolate: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. - Wellness: use a public Ankorstore `/shop/` category URL. ### Field reference checklist - `productId` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `productName` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `productUrl` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `brandId` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `brandName` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `brandUrl` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `imageUrl` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `price` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `currency` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `category` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `categoryPath` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `sourceUrl` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `sourceType` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `description` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `sku` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `tags` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `madeIn` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. - `scrapedAt` is included in every dataset row, with `null` or an empty array when unavailable. # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Public Ankorstore category, search, collection, brand, or product URLs.
