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.

Edition filtering is applied post-retrieval from the `supportedEditions` field in each record. **How often is AppExchange data updated?** AppExchange data is live. Run the actor anytime for current ratings, review counts, and pricing. **What's the difference between browse and search modes?** Browse retrieves all listings in the API's natural order (most recently installed first). Search applies a keyword filter to the same dataset, returning only listings where your query appears in the title, description, or publisher name. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): How to scrape AppExchange listings. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword to search for in listing names and descriptions. ## `categoryFilter` (type: `string`): Filter results to a specific top-level Salesforce category. ## `pricingFilter` (type: `string`): Filter by pricing model. ## `listingUrls` (type: `array`): AppExchange listing URLs to fetch directly (e.g. https://appexchange.salesforce.com/appxListingDetail?listingId=...). ## `minRating` (type: `number`): Only include listings with rating at or above this value (1.0–5.0). ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of listings to return. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "CRM", "categoryFilter": "", "pricingFilter": "", "listingUrls": [], "maxItems": 20 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `listings` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped AppExchange listings. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
