## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

### Gartner  Reviews Scraper

Gartner  Reviews Scraper is a web scraping tool designed to help you gather product reviews from Gartner using product URLs.

To use it, simply insert the URL of an Gartner product into the product URLs input field, initiate the scraper, and then retrieve the data from the output tab. You have the option to specify the maximum number of reviews you wish to extract, which can help shorten the scraping process. If you prefer to scrape all available reviews, just leave the 'Max Reviews' field empty.

### What will be the expense for scraping Gartner  Reviews?

When dealing with scraping tasks, gauging the necessary resources for data extraction can pose difficulties since use cases can diverge significantly. Therefore, the optimal approach is to conduct a trial scrape using a small portion of input data and restricting the output. This way, you can determine your cost per scrape, which you can subsequently multiply by the number of scrapes you plan to execute.

View [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wyz2iscZ30) for some valuable tips, and remember that opting for a higher-tier plan will lead to long-term cost savings.

### Input

To utilize the Gartner  Reviews Scraper, you should provide the URLs of the Gartner product from which you wish to extract reviews. Please be aware that not all public pages feature reviews. For a comprehensive description of the input format in JSON, click on the input tab.

```javascript
{
  "proxy": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"

    {
      "url": "https://www.gartner.com/reviews/market/a-b-testing-tools/vendor/wingify/product/vwo"

> NOTE: Please keep in mind that using private proxies is advisable for enhanced stability in your results.
