## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

  "minPriceDaily": 20,
  "maxPriceDaily": 80,
  "petsAllowedOnly": true
}
```

### Use cases

- **RV trip planning** — bulk-collect campgrounds along a route with pricing and amenities
- **Market research** — compare nightly/weekly rates across regions or cities

- **Content aggregation** — build a campground directory or comparison site
- **Data analysis** — study amenity availability, pet-friendliness, and pricing trends across the RV park market

### FAQ

**What's RoverPass?** An online marketplace and booking platform for RV parks and campgrounds, with listings across the US, Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand and the UK. See [roverpass.com](https://www.roverpass.com/).

**Why isn't RV Trader (rvtrader.com) scraped instead?** rvtrader.com is protected by a dual AWS WAF Bot Control (CAPTCHA challenge) + DataDome stack that blocks every request — including from headless browsers with stealth patches — with a hard `403 Request blocked` at the CDN edge, before any bot-detection challenge is even served to solve. RVT.com, the other major RV classifieds marketplace, is protected by the same AWS WAF challenge family. Reliably defeating DataDome specifically requires a paid residential proxy, which this project's zero-cost cloud-reliability policy forbids. RoverPass is a legitimate marketplace in the same "RV lifestyle" category (RV Trader itself links out to an "RV Parks" section) with no bot protection at all — a plain HTTP request returns full, real, server-rendered content.

**Does browsing a region show every campground in that state?** Large states organize their listings under city sub-pages (e.g. `/f/texas/austin-campgrounds/`). Set the `city` input to drill into a specific city; browsing the bare region page returns whatever RoverPass lists directly at the region level (smaller regions list campgrounds directly; larger ones list their cities).

**What does `priceDailyLow`/`priceDailyHigh` mean?** The lowest and highest advertised nightly rate across the listing's site types (e.g. tent site vs. full-hookup pull-through).

**Are the discount club rates guaranteed?** `discountClubs` only lists a club when the campground has explicitly activated that discount; the percentage shown is the campground's own advertised rate at scrape time.

**How fresh is the data?** Listings are pulled live from RoverPass at request time — nothing is cached or pre-fetched.
