## 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.

### Review availability

Gartner Peer Insights serves review data via server-side rendering. Up to **5 reviews** are embedded per product page; 2 of those are additionally highlighted as "critical" and "favorable" reviews and include `likes`/`dislikes` fields. The actor merges both sources so the richer data is always included.

Gartner gates full review pagination behind a login wall — unauthenticated visitors receive the same 5 reviews regardless of sort/filter parameters. The `useFilters` option is available for future compatibility but does not currently increase the review count.

### FAQ

**Does this require a Gartner account?**
No. The scraper uses publicly accessible page HTML. No cookies or credentials are needed.

**Can I scrape all reviews for a product?**
Gartner gates full review pagination behind a login wall. This actor extracts all reviews available to unauthenticated visitors (typically 15–35 unique reviews per product using filter variants).

**How do I find a market SEO name?**
Navigate to a Gartner market page and copy the slug from the URL, e.g. for `https://www.gartner.com/reviews/market/sales-force-automation-platforms` the seoName is `sales-force-automation-platforms`.

**Do I need a proxy?**
Residential proxies are recommended for large-scale scraping. For small runs (1–10 products), the scraper works without a proxy.

**How often does data update on Gartner?**
Gartner aggregates new reviews continuously. Re-run this actor periodically to capture new reviews.
