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 ## Dezeen Scraper Scrape articles from [Dezeen](https://www.dezeen.com/) — the world's most visited architecture and design magazine.

Dezeen has tens of thousands of archived articles. **Can I filter by date range?** Yes — use `dateFrom` and `dateTo` in YYYY-MM-DD format. **How is this data useful?** Track design trends, monitor architecture news, build design inspiration databases, research published projects, or analyze coverage patterns. **Is this legal?** This scraper accesses Dezeen's public WordPress REST API, the same interface used by apps and aggregators. Check Dezeen's Terms of Service for your specific use case. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to fetch: search articles by keyword, browse by category, or get the latest articles. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword or phrase to search for (required for mode=search). ## `category` (type: `string`): Filter to a specific Dezeen category. Works with all modes — in latestArticles/search it narrows results; in byCategory it is required. ## `tag` (type: `string`): Filter by a Dezeen tag slug, e.g. `sustainability`, `housing`, `concrete`. Combine with category for narrower results. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Order of results. `newest` uses date desc; `oldest` uses date asc; `relevance` uses WP default (applies to search mode). ## `dateFrom` (type: `string`): Only include articles published on or after this date. ## `dateTo` (type: `string`): Only include articles published on or before this date. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of articles to return. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "latestArticles", "sortBy": "newest", "maxItems": 20 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `articles` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped Dezeen articles. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
