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.

Only **$1 per 1,000** profiles, no hidden fees! #### Why do I only get 5 results? On the **free plan**, runs are capped at **5 profiles** so you can check data quality before scaling up. #### Can I scrape more than one search? Yes: run the actor again with a different `startUrl`, or increase `maxItems` on a paid plan. #### Is it legal to scrape Thomasnet? This actor only collects **publicly visible** supplier information from search and profile pages. It is **not affiliated** with Thomasnet. For general guidance, see Apify’s article on [web scraping legality](https://blog.apify.com/is-web-scraping-legal?fpr=cbgdsf). ### πŸ“¬ Contact - πŸ’¬ **Discord:** `@azzouzana` - πŸ“§ **Email:** ### ⚠️ Disclaimer This actor is **not affiliated** with Thomasnet.
