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/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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 ## Loaded (CDKeys) Game Key Store Scraper Scrape [Loaded.com](https://www.loaded.com) (formerly CDKeys.com) — a major digital game-key retailer. Search by keyword, browse by platform (PC / PlayStation / Xbox / Nintendo) and category, pull the current Flash Sale deals, new releases, gift cards, or an entire game franchise. Get price, discount %, platform, publisher, genre, stock status, and product/image URLs. No login, no cookies, no paid proxy required. ### What this actor does - **Six modes:** `search`, `byPlatform`, `deals`, `newReleases`, `giftCards`, `byFranchise` - **Platform browse:** PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo — each with its own category set (Games, Gift Cards, Memberships, Steam, Time Cards, Season Passes, Add-ons) - **Filters:** price range, on-sale-only, in-stock-only, genre, publisher, platform - **Sort:** relevance (default), price low-to-high, price high-to-low, newest first — applies to every mode - **Real-time pricing:** price, original (pre-discount) price, and discount % read straight from the store's own product listing data - **Empty fields are omitted** — every field on every record is real, populated data ### Output per product | Field | Description | |---|---| | `title` | Product name | | `sku` | Store SKU / product code | | `price` | Current price (GBP) | | `originalPrice` | Pre-discount price, only present when on sale | | `discountPercent` | Discount %, only present when on sale | | `currency` | Always `GBP` | | `onSale` | `true`/`false` | | `platform` | e.g. `Windows`, `Steam`, `PlayStation 5`, `Xbox Series X/s`, `Nintendo Switch` | | `publisher` | Publisher/platform-holder name | | `genre` | Primary genre, when the store lists one | | `franchise` | Franchise name, when the store lists one | | `productType` | e.g. `PC Games`, `Xbox Dlc & Add-ons`, `Topups - Roblox` | | `region` | e.g. `Worldwide`, `EU`, `US` | | `inStock` | `true`/`false` | | `isPreorder` | `true`/`false` | | `imageUrl` | Product cover image | | `sourceUrl` | Canonical product page URL | | `searchQuery` / `searchPlatform` / `searchCategory` / `searchFranchise` | Echo of the request context that produced this record | | `recordType` | Always `product` | | `scrapedAt` | UTC ISO timestamp | ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `mode` | string | `search` | `search` / `byPlatform` / `deals` / `newReleases` / `giftCards` / `byFranchise` | | `searchQuery` | string | `call of duty` | Free-text keyword (mode=search) | | `platform` | string | – | `pc` / `playstation` / `xbox-live` / `nintendo` — required for `byPlatform`, optional filter otherwise | | `category` | string | `games` | Category within the platform (mode=byPlatform): `games`, `giftCards`, `memberships`, `addOns`, `steam`, `timeCards`, `seasonPasses` | | `franchiseSlug` | string | `doom` | Franchise URL slug (mode=byFranchise), e.g. `doom`, `assassins-creed`, `call-of-duty`, `grand-theft-auto` | | `minPrice` / `maxPrice` | int | – | GBP price range | | `onSaleOnly` | bool | `false` | Only discounted products | | `inStockOnly` | bool | `false` | Only in-stock products | | `genre` | string | – | Case-insensitive genre match | | `publisher` | string | – | Case-insensitive publisher match | | `sortBy` | string | `relevance` | `relevance` / `priceAsc` / `priceDesc` / `newest` | | `maxItems` | int | `50` | Hard cap (1–1000) | #### Example: search with filters ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "assassin's creed", "onSaleOnly": true, "maxItems": 50 } ```` #### Example: browse PlayStation games under £20 ```json { "mode": "byPlatform", "platform": "playstation", "category": "games", "maxPrice": 20, "maxItems": 100 } ``` #### Example: current deals ```json { "mode": "deals", "maxItems": 50 } ``` ### Use cases - **Price tracking** — monitor game-key prices and discounts over time - **Deal aggregation** — pull the current Flash Sale into your own site or newsletter - **Market research** — compare pricing across platforms, publishers, or franchises - **Catalog enrichment** — feed titles, images and metadata into a game database - **Affiliate content** — build "best deals right now" pages from live data ### FAQ **Do I need to log in or provide cookies?** No — every mode works from a plain, unauthenticated request. **What currency are prices in?** GBP (£) — the store's default currency for unauthenticated browsing. **Why do some products have no `genre` or `franchise`?** Not every product (e.g. gift cards, top-ups, memberships) has a genre or franchise — those fields are simply omitted rather than shown as empty. **Why does `category` sometimes fall back to Games?** Not every category exists on every platform (Steam and Time Cards are PC-only, Season Passes is Xbox-only, Add-ons is PlayStation-only). Requesting an unsupported combination automatically falls back to that platform's Games listing. **Can I combine `platform` with `search`, `deals`, `newReleases`, `giftCards` or `byFranchise`?** Yes — outside of `byPlatform` mode, the `platform` field acts as a results filter rather than driving the page URL. **How is `discountPercent` calculated?** From the live current price vs. the store's own regular (pre-discount) price on the same listing — always internally consistent with `price` and `originalPrice`. **Are there gift cards for third-party platforms (Steam, Roblox, etc.)?** Yes — `mode=giftCards` covers the store's general gift-card catalog, separate from platform-specific gift cards (e.g. PlayStation Store credit) which appear under `byPlatform` with `category=giftCards`. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to fetch from Loaded.com. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Free-text keyword to search Loaded.com's catalog, e.g. a game title or franchise. ## `platform` (type: `string`): Platform hub to browse (mode=byPlatform, required) or to filter results by (all other modes, optional). ## `category` (type: `string`): Product category within the chosen platform.

Uses the store's own listing-page sort. ## `onSaleOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only emit products currently discounted below their regular price. ## `inStockOnly` (type: `boolean`): Only emit products currently in stock. ## `genre` (type: `string`): Keep only products whose genre matches (e.g. `action`, `strategy`, `rpg`, `sports`, `shooter`, `horror`). Case-insensitive. ## `publisher` (type: `string`): Keep only products whose publisher name contains this text (e.g. `ubisoft`, `ea`, `rockstar`). Case-insensitive. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on emitted records. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "call of duty", "platform": "pc", "category": "games", "franchiseSlug": "doom", "sortBy": "relevance", "onSaleOnly": false, "inStockOnly": false, "maxItems": 50 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `products` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped Loaded.com products. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
