## What's an Apify Actor?

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

### Shopify Products Scraper — Any Store, No Auth | from $1.50/1K

Built for dropshippers tracking Shopify supplier catalogs, price intelligence tools monitoring competitor stores, and e-commerce analysts building cross-store product databases.

**Pricing:** Pay per product — $1.50/1K (per-product mode), $2.00/1K (per-variant mode). First 10 results free.

**No login. No proxy. No API key. Works on any Shopify store.**

Scrape any Shopify store's full product catalogue via the public `/products.json` endpoint.
Works on both `*.myshopify.com` subdomains and custom store domains.

### What you get

- **One row per variant** (default) or one row per product — your choice
- Clean, typed fields: `price` is a `float`, not a Shopify string
- Full variant data: `variant_id`, `variant_title`, `price`, `compare_at_price`, `sku`, `available`
- Product metadata: `title`, `handle`, `vendor`, `product_type`, `tags`, `image_url`, `product_url`
- ISO 8601 timestamps: `created_at`, `updated_at`, `published_at`
- `parse_confidence` score + `warnings` list per row (see below)

### Use cases

- **Competitive price monitoring** — track prices and availability across stores
- **Catalog indexing** — build product databases from Shopify merchants
- **Dropship research** — find in-stock variants and supplier SKUs
- **Market analysis** — aggregate product types, vendors, tag taxonomies

### How to use

1. Add Shopify store URLs to **Store URLs** — one per line:
````

gymshark.myshopify.com
www.allbirds.com
mybrand.myshopify.com

```
2. Set **Max products per store** (0 = no limit, scrapes all pages)
3. Toggle **One row per variant** — ON for price/SKU tracking, OFF for catalog overview

### Input fields

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `storeUrls` | list | — | Shopify store URLs (myshopify.com or custom domain) |
| `maxProducts` | integer | 100 | Products per store; 0 = all |
| `rowPerVariant` | boolean | true | One row per variant (true) or per product (false) |
| `includeBodyHtml` | boolean | false | Include `body_html` product description |
| `productHandleFilter` | string | — | Substring filter on product handle |
| `vendorFilter` | string | — | Substring filter on vendor field |

### Output schema

| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `store_domain` | string | e.g. `gymshark.myshopify.com` |
| `product_id` | integer | Shopify product ID |
| `title` | string | Product title |
| `handle` | string | URL slug e.g. `classic-tee` |
| `vendor` | string | Brand/vendor name |
| `product_type` | string | Store-defined category |
| `tags` | array | Product tag list |
| `variant_id` | integer | Shopify variant ID (null if rowPerVariant=false) |
| `variant_title` | string | e.g. `Small / Black` |
| `price` | float | Listing price |
| `compare_at_price` | float or null | Struck-through / original price |
| `sku` | string | Stock-keeping unit |
| `available` | boolean | In-stock flag |
| `image_url` | string | First product image CDN URL |
| `product_url` | string | Canonical storefront URL |
| `body_html` | string or null | Product description (opt-in) |
| `created_at` | string | ISO 8601 |
| `updated_at` | string | ISO 8601 |
| `published_at` | string | ISO 8601 |
| `parse_confidence` | float | 0.0–1.0 quality score |
| `warnings` | array | Machine-readable quality codes |

### parse_confidence & warnings

Each row includes a `parse_confidence` score (1.0 = all expected fields present).
Deductions:
- `product_id_missing` → −0.50
- `title_missing` → −0.25
- `handle_missing` → −0.10
- `no_variants` → −0.20
- `created_at_missing` → −0.05

### Limitations

- `/products.json` is a public Shopify endpoint — no login, no proxy needed
- Some stores restrict it (401/403/404). The actor logs these and continues to the next store
- Shopify does not expose `inventory_quantity` in the public API — use `available` (boolean) instead
- Price is in the store's default currency (no currency code in the public API)

### vs. competitors

| Feature | This actor | epctex/shopify-scraper |

### Pricing example

| Volume | Mode | Cost |
|---|---|---|
| 100 products | Per-product | $0.15 |
| 1,000 products | Per-product | $1.50 |
| 1,000 variants | Per-variant | $2.00 |
| 10,000 variants | Per-variant | $20.00 |

First 10 results are free. You pay only for rows actually returned.

### FAQ

**Do I need a Shopify API key or login?**
No. This actor uses the public `/products.json` endpoint — available on every Shopify store without auth. No credentials, no proxy needed.

**Does it work on custom domains (not myshopify.com)?**
Yes. Provide the full custom domain (e.g. `www.allbirds.com`) and the actor detects the Shopify backend automatically.

**What output formats are available?**
JSON (default), CSV, and Excel — via the Apify dataset export or API.

**What if a store returns empty or a 403 error?**
Some stores restrict `/products.json` via their Shopify settings (password-protected stores). The actor logs the error and continues to the next store — it does not crash. You are not charged for failed stores.

### Notes

- This actor is not affiliated with Shopify Inc.
- Scraping is limited to publicly accessible product data — no account required

### Integrations

Built for dropshippers and e-commerce analysts monitoring competitor catalogs, pricing, and variant availability — the JSON/dataset output drops into the tools you already run, no glue code:

- **n8n / Make / Zapier** — trigger a run or pipe every new dataset item into 500+ apps (Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, HubSpot, your database) with no code: [n8n](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/n8n), [Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make), [Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier).
- **Webhooks** — fire your own endpoint the moment a run finishes, to push results straight into your pipeline ([docs](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)).
- **MCP server** — expose this actor as a tool to Claude, Cursor, or any [MCP client](https://mcp.apify.com) so an AI agent can pull this data mid-conversation ([guide](https://blog.apify.com/how-to-use-mcp/)).
- **API & SDKs** — fetch the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel through the Apify REST API or the Python / JS SDKs.

# Actor input Schema

## `storeUrls` (type: `array`):

List of Shopify store URLs to scrape. Accepts myshopify.com subdomains (e.g. gymshark.myshopify.com) or custom domains (e.g. www.allbirds.com). Include protocol or omit — both work. Multiple stores are scraped in sequence.
## `maxProducts` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to scrape per store. 0 = no limit (scrape all available products). The scraper paginates automatically using /products.json?limit=250.
## `rowPerVariant` (type: `boolean`):

When true (default): output one dataset row per product variant — each row has a unique variant_id, price, SKU and availability. When false: output one row per product with variant data omitted (faster for catalog overviews).
## `includeBodyHtml` (type: `boolean`):

Include the full body_html product description field (default ON). Turn off to keep output compact.
## `productHandleFilter` (type: `string`):

Only include products whose handle contains this substring (case-insensitive). Leave blank to include all products.
## `vendorFilter` (type: `string`):

Only include products whose vendor field contains this substring (case-insensitive). Leave blank to include all.
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Apify Proxy (RESIDENTIAL group) is recommended for stores that may block datacenter IPs. Leave default for most public Shopify stores.
