FAQ

Do I need to configure the proxy myself? No — the default proxy configuration (Russian residential) is already set up. For search, byCategory, and productDetails it's required for real data. For mode=discoverUrls it's normally unused (that mode is free); it only kicks in automatically as a fallback if the free sitemap path gets blocked for your run.

Why is residential proxy required? VseInstrumenti.ru's storefront pages (search, category, and product pages) are protected by an anti-bot system that blocks non-Russian and datacenter IPs with a CAPTCHA challenge. A Russian residential IP passes the challenge; the sitemap used by discoverUrls, however, is generally open and needs no proxy in the common case.

Why did my search/byCategory/productDetails run return 0 results? VseInstrumenti.ru's anti-bot protection is session-based and can occasionally block an individual run. Simply run the actor again — each run opens a fresh residential proxy session. If a specific search or URL consistently returns nothing, double-check that it's correct on vseinstrumenti.ru itself.

How do I find category or product URLs to use as input? Run mode=discoverUrls first (it's free and fast) with discoverUrlType=category or product, optionally with a discoverKeyword filter — then feed the resulting URLs into categoryUrls or productUrls.

What currency are prices in? Russian rubles (RUB), as displayed on the site.

How do I get customer reviews? Set includeReviews to true with mode=productDetails. Each product record gets a reviews array with up to maxReviews reviews (author, rating, date, text). This adds one extra page load per product, so runs take a bit longer. Not every product has reviews — those simply omit the field.

Can I use a bare numeric product ID instead of a full URL? No — unlike some other Russian marketplaces, VseInstrumenti.ru's product URLs require the full SEO slug and cannot be resolved from the numeric ID alone. Use mode=discoverUrls to collect full product URLs first.

Is this actor affiliated with VseInstrumenti.ru? No, this is an independent third-party actor that reads publicly available data from vseinstrumenti.ru. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by VseInstrumenti.ru.
