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 ## Fiverr Gig & Seller Scraper Extract gig listings, full gig details, and seller profiles from [Fiverr.com](https://www.fiverr.com) at scale. Built on the Apify platform using Playwright for full JavaScript-rendered page support and stealth fingerprint rotation to handle Fiverr's anti-bot protections. --- ### Capabilities - **Search-based scraping** — Enter any keyword and scrape all matching gig listings with pagination support - **Individual gig scraping** — Extract complete details from a specific gig URL including all pricing packages - **Seller profile scraping** — Pull full seller profiles including bio, languages, skills, education, certifications, and all their listed gigs - **Flexible filtering** — Sort by best selling, newest, rating, or price; filter by category and price range - **Smart data extraction** — Primary extraction from embedded `__NEXT_DATA__` JSON, with DOM fallback for maximum reliability - **Stealth operation** — Browser fingerprint rotation, randomised delays (2–4s), and viewport randomisation --- ### Use Cases #### Competitor Research Monitor what your competitors are offering, how they price their packages, and what keywords drive traffic to top-selling gigs. Track seller levels and review counts over time. #### Lead Generation Identify sellers in your niche for partnership outreach, affiliate programs, or talent acquisition. Filter by level (Top Rated, Level 2) and review count to find established freelancers. #### Market Analysis Understand price distribution across a service category. Collect hundreds of gigs for a query and analyse average prices, delivery times, and common deliverables at each tier. #### Finding Freelancers at Scale Sourcing agencies and businesses can use this actor to build qualified shortlists of freelancers offering specific services, filtered by seller level, price, and rating. --- ### Input ```json { "searchQuery": "python web scraping", "category": "programming-tech", "maxGigs": 100, "sortBy": "best_selling", "minPrice": 10, "maxPrice": 200, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` Or scrape a specific gig and its seller profile: ```json { "gigUrl": "https://www.fiverr.com/exampleuser/build-a-python-web-scraper", "sellerUrl": "https://www.fiverr.com/exampleuser" } ``` #### Input Fields | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `searchQuery` | string | — | Keywords to search on Fiverr | | `category` | string | — | Category slug/ID filter (optional) | | `maxGigs` | integer | `50` | Max gig listings to collect from search | | `gigUrl` | string | — | Direct URL to a specific gig page | | `sellerUrl` | string | — | Direct URL to a seller profile page | | `sortBy` | enum | `best_selling` | Sort order for search results | | `minPrice` | integer | `0` | Minimum starting price filter (USD) | | `maxPrice` | integer | `0` | Maximum starting price filter (USD, 0 = no limit) | | `maxRequestRetries` | integer | `3` | Retry attempts for failed page loads | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | — | Proxy settings (Apify Residential recommended) | *** ### Output All scraped records are saved to the Apify Dataset.

This actor mitigates detection through: - Browser fingerprint rotation (Chrome and Firefox profiles on Windows/macOS) - Randomised viewport sizes and delays between requests - `webdriver` navigator property override - Low concurrency (2 parallel browsers maximum) - Residential proxy support (strongly recommended for large runs) #### Data Extraction Strategy The actor first attempts to extract data from Fiverr's embedded `__NEXT_DATA__` JSON script tag, which contains the full structured data the React frontend uses. If this is unavailable (e.g., due to page structure changes), it falls back to direct DOM selection. #### Pagination Search results are paginated using Fiverr's `page` query parameter. The actor automatically detects and enqueues next pages until `maxGigs` is reached. *** ### Pricing **$1.00 per 1,000 gigs** scraped (search results + gig details combined). Seller profile pages are counted separately at the same rate. Proxy costs (if using Apify Residential Proxies) are billed additionally per Apify's standard compute unit pricing. *** ### Running Locally ```bash ## Install dependencies npm install ## Install Playwright browsers npx playwright install chromium ## Build TypeScript npm run build ## Run (requires APIFY_TOKEN env variable or local storage) npm start ``` For local development with hot reload: ```bash npm run dev ``` *** ### License Apache 2.0 # Actor input Schema ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keywords to search on Fiverr. Example: 'logo design', 'python web scraping', 'video editing'. Required unless gigUrl or sellerUrl is provided. ## `category` (type: `string`): Optional Fiverr category ID or slug to filter search results. Example: 'graphics-design', 'programming-tech'. Leave blank to search all categories. ## `maxGigs` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of gig listings to collect from search results. The actor will paginate through results until this limit is reached. ## `gigUrl` (type: `string`): Scrape a specific Fiverr gig page directly. Example: https://www.fiverr.com/seller\_username/gig-title. Overrides searchQuery for this specific gig. ## `sellerUrl` (type: `string`): Scrape a specific Fiverr seller profile page directly. Example: https://www.fiverr.com/seller\_username ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): How to sort Fiverr search results. Default is Best Selling (Fiverr's relevance-based ranking). ## `minPrice` (type: `integer`): Filter gigs with a starting price at or above this value (in USD). Set to 0 or leave blank for no minimum. ## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`): Filter gigs with a starting price at or below this value (in USD). Set to 0 or leave blank for no maximum. ## `maxRequestRetries` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of retry attempts for failed page loads. Increase if you experience frequent bot-detection failures. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings for bypassing geo-restrictions and anti-bot protection. Highly recommended for large-scale scraping. Use Apify Residential Proxies for best results. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQuery": "logo design", "category": "graphics-design", "maxGigs": 50, "gigUrl": "https://www.fiverr.com/exampleuser/create-a-professional-logo", "sellerUrl": "https://www.fiverr.com/exampleuser", "sortBy": "best_selling", "minPrice": 5, "maxPrice": 100, "maxRequestRetries": 3, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
