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 ## Unity Asset Store Scraper Scrape the [Unity Asset Store](https://assetstore.unity.com) — 120,000+ 3D/2D models, VFX, audio packs, editor tools, templates and add-ons for the Unity game engine. Search by keyword, browse by category, filter by price or publisher, sort by rating/price/release date. HTTP-only via the Asset Store's public search API. No auth, no proxy required. ### What this actor does - **Two modes:** `search` (keyword + filter browse) and `byIds` (direct product ID lookup) - **Full filter surface:** 9 top-level categories, 126 subcategories (full 2/3/4-level taxonomy), price (free/paid), publisher, 6 sort orders (including best-selling) - **Rich per-asset detail:** price + live sale price, rating, review count, publisher, engine-version compatibility, tags, first-published date, last-updated date, thumbnail - **Empty fields are omitted** ### Output per asset - `productId`, `title`, `publisher`, `publisherId` - `category`, `categoryPath` (full breadcrumb, e.g. `3d > environments > urban`) - `price`, `currentPrice` (post-discount, if on sale), `isFree` - `onSale`, `salePrice` - `rating` (0-5), `ratingCount` - `thumbnailUrl` - `description`, `shortDescription` - `tags[]` — descriptive keywords (genre, style, use-case) - `minUnityVersion` — minimum compatible Unity engine version (e.g. `2022.3`) - `firstPublishedAt` — original publish date - `lastUpdated` — most recent revision date - `detailUrl` / `sourceUrl` — Asset Store package page - `recordType: "asset"`, `scrapedAt` ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `mode` | string | `search` | `search` / `byIds` | | `searchQuery` | string | – (prefill `car`) | Keyword search | | `category` | select | – | 3D, 2D, Audio, Tools, VFX, Templates, Add-Ons, Essentials, AI / SDK | | `subcategory` | select | – | 126 fine-grained subcategories across the full taxonomy depth (e.g. `3D > Vehicles`, `3D > Characters > Animals > Birds`, `Tools > Physics`); overrides `category` if both are set | | `priceFilter` | select | `any` | `any` / `free` / `paid` | | `publisher` | string | – | Exact publisher display name | | `sortBy` | select | `relevance` | `relevance` / `priceLowToHigh` / `priceHighToLow` / `rating` / `releaseDate` (recently updated) / `bestSelling` | | `minRating` | integer | – | Drop assets rated below this (0-5) | | `assetIds` | array | – | Product IDs or full package URLs (mode=byIds) | | `maxItems` | integer | `20` | Hard cap (1-500) | | `proxyConfiguration` | proxy | off | Optional AUTO-group fallback if rate-limited | #### Example: free VFX assets, newest first ```json { "mode": "search", "category": "vfx", "priceFilter": "free", "sortBy": "releaseDate", "maxItems": 30 } ```` #### Example: keyword search in a price range mindset (paid only, top rated) ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "character controller", "priceFilter": "paid", "sortBy": "rating", "maxItems": 25 } ``` #### Example: lookup specific assets ```json { "mode": "byIds", "assetIds": ["206584", "95214"] } ``` ### Use cases - **Game dev tooling discovery** — find character controllers, VFX packs and editor tools for a Unity project - **Market research** — compare pricing and ratings across publishers in a category - **Competitive analysis** — track a publisher's full catalog and pricing - **Curated lists** — build "best free VFX assets" or "top-rated audio packs" roundups - **Engine-compatibility audits** — check `minUnityVersion` before adopting an asset ### FAQ **What's the Unity Asset Store?** The official marketplace for the Unity game engine — models, tools, audio, VFX, templates and more, both free and paid. **Does `price` include active sale discounts?** `price` is the regular list price; `currentPrice` is the live, possibly-discounted price when `onSale` is `true`. **Why is `rating`/`ratingCount` sometimes missing?** Assets with no reviews yet have no rating on the Asset Store — this is real upstream data, not a scraper bug. **What's `minUnityVersion`?** The minimum Unity engine version the publisher declares compatibility with, formatted `YYYY.MINOR` (e.g. `2022.3`). **What's the difference between `firstPublishedAt` and `lastUpdated`?** `firstPublishedAt` is the asset's original release date; `lastUpdated` is the most recent revision (they're identical for assets that have never been updated since launch). `sortBy=releaseDate` sorts by `lastUpdated` (i.e. "recently touched"), matching the Asset Store's own default "newest" ordering. **Can I search without a keyword?** Yes — leave `searchQuery` empty and use `category`/`priceFilter`/`publisher` to browse. **How fresh is the data?** Real-time — every request hits the Asset Store's live search backend. **Why does `detailUrl` redirect instead of loading directly?** The Asset Store issues a redirect from the short `/packages/package/{id}` form to the full SEO slug URL (e.g. `/packages/templates/systems/platformer-project-206584`) — this is standard on the live site itself, confirmed to resolve with `200 OK` for normal browser requests (the server's redirect endpoint just doesn't answer `HEAD` requests, only `GET`). # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to fetch. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Free-text keyword search (mode=search). Leave empty to browse by category/price/publisher filters only. ## `category` (type: `string`): Restrict to one Asset Store top-level category. Ignored if `subcategory` is also set. ## `subcategory` (type: `string`): Restrict to one Asset Store subcategory (finer-grained than Category). Overrides Category if both are set. ## `priceFilter` (type: `string`): Restrict to free or paid assets. ## `publisher` (type: `string`): Restrict to one publisher's exact display name (e.g. `Synty Studios`). ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Ordering applied to results. ## `minRating` (type: `integer`): Drop assets rated below this (0-5). Assets with no reviews yet have no rating and are always included. ## `assetIds` (type: `array`): Unity Asset Store numeric product IDs, or full package URLs. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on emitted records. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Optional. The public search API works without a proxy; this is only used as an automatic fallback if Apify's IPs get rate-limited (403/429). AUTO datacenter group only — no residential proxy is ever used. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "car", "priceFilter": "any", "sortBy": "relevance", "assetIds": [], "maxItems": 20, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `assets` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped Unity Asset Store assets. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
