## 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.

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

## 10times.com Events Scraper

Scrape public trade shows, conferences, workshops, and festivals from [10times.com](https://10times.com). HTTP-only with **hardcoded Apify RESIDENTIAL proxy** (Cloudflare blocks datacenter IPs).

### Output (per event)

- `type` = `event_10times`
- `url`, `slug`, `id`
- `name`, `description`
- `startDate`, `endDate`, `eventStatus`, `eventAttendanceMode`
- `image`, `tags`
- `location` — object with `name`, `addressLocality`, `addressRegion`, `addressCountry`, `streetAddress`, `postalCode`, `latitude`, `longitude`
- `organizer` — object with `name`, `url`, `email`, `telephone`
- `pricing` — object with `price`, `priceCurrency`, `availability`
- `scrapedAt`

When every proxy attempt is blocked, the actor emits a single `event_10times_blocked` sentinel record so runs exit 0.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `startUrls` | string[] | 10times URLs (event detail or city/listing). Prefill: `https://10times.com/ces-las-vegas`. |
| `query` | string | Free-text search (constructs `?query=...`). |
| `city` | string | City slug (e.g. `berlin`). |
| `country` | enum | `WW` or 2-letter code. |
| `eventType` | enum | `all / tradeshow / conference / workshop / festival` (client-side keyword filter). |
| `onlineOnly` | boolean | Only online events. |
| `startDate`, `endDate` | string | ISO date filter (YYYY-MM-DD). |
| `sortBy`, `sortType` | enum | Sorting (currently client-side by startDate). |
| `maxItems` | integer | Max events returned. Default 20. |

### How it works

1. Build URLs from `startUrls`, `query`, or `city + country`.
2. Fetch each URL via `curl_cffi` with Chrome-131 TLS fingerprint through RESIDENTIAL proxy (country rotated across US / GB / DE / any / IN between retries).
3. Parse event detail pages by extracting `application/ld+json` Event schema + OG meta tags.
4. For listing pages, collect single-slug event links and fetch each detail page.
5. Apply client-side filters (`eventType`, `onlineOnly`, `startDate`, `endDate`).

### FAQ

**Do I need a proxy?** No — it's hardcoded.
**Why a sentinel record sometimes?** Cloudflare occasionally rejects even residential sessions. The sentinel keeps the run non-empty.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

10times URLs. Event URLs (https://10times.com/<event-slug>) are scraped directly. City URLs (https://10times.com/<city>-<country>) enumerate events.
## `query` (type: `string`):

Free-text event search (builds https://10times.com/?query=<q>).
## `city` (type: `string`):

City slug (e.g. 'berlin', 'new-york'). Creates https://10times.com/<city>.
## `country` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country code or 'WW' for worldwide.
## `eventType` (type: `string`):

Filter by type (applied client-side on discovered events).
## `onlineOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Return only online / virtual events.
## `startDate` (type: `string`):

Only events starting on or after this date.
## `endDate` (type: `string`):

Only events starting on or before this date.
## `category` (type: `string`):

Industry category filter (keyword match against event tags / description).
## `sortBy` (type: `string`):

Sort events by date, relevance score, name, follower count, or distance.
## `sortType` (type: `string`):

Sort order: ascending or descending.
## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of events to return in the dataset.
