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 ## Zapier App Directory Scraper Scrape the [Zapier App Directory](https://zapier.com/apps) — the definitive catalog of 9,000+ software integrations. Search apps by keyword, browse any of 94 categories, or fetch details for specific apps. No login, no API key, no proxy required. ### What You Get | Field | Description | |---|---| | `appId` | Unique Zapier app identifier | | `slug` | URL-friendly app slug (e.g. `gmail`, `slack`) | | `name` | App display name | | `description` | Full app description | | `categories` | Array of category slugs the app belongs to | | `partnerTier` | Zapier partner tier: PLATINUM, GOLD, SILVER, or BRONZE | | `isPremium` | Whether this is a premium-only app (requires paid Zapier plan) | | `isBeta` | Whether the app is in beta | | `isUpcoming` | Whether the app is not yet released | | `logoUrl` | High-resolution app logo URL | | `appUrl` | Direct Zapier integration page URL | | `externalUrl` | The app's official external website | | `primaryColor` | Brand hex color (without #) | | `popularity` | Zapier popularity ranking score | | `zapUsageCount` | Number of Zaps using this app | | `scrapedAt` | ISO timestamp when the record was scraped | ### Modes #### 1. Search by Keyword (`mode=search`) Find apps matching a keyword in their name. **Input:** ```json { "mode": "search", "searchQuery": "email", "maxItems": 50 } ```` **Use case:** Discover all email-related apps, CRM tools, or any category of software on Zapier. #### 2. Browse by Category (`mode=byCategory`) Get all apps in a specific Zapier category, in their ranked order as shown on zapier.com. Running this daily lets you track which apps move up or down in category rankings. **Input:** ```json { "mode": "byCategory", "category": "marketing", "maxItems": 100 } ``` **Available categories** (select from dropdown — 94 total including subcategories): - **Top-level**: App Families, Artificial Intelligence, Business Intelligence, Commerce, Communication, Content & Files, Human Resources, Internet of Things, IT Operations, Lifestyle & Entertainment, Marketing, Productivity, Sales & CRM, Support, Website & App Building - **Subcategories**: Email, CRM, Analytics, Dashboards, eCommerce, Accounting, Team Chat, Project Management, and many more #### 3. Lookup by App Slug (`mode=byAppSlug`) Fetch full details for specific apps by their Zapier slug. Includes category memberships. **Input:** ```json { "mode": "byAppSlug", "appSlugs": ["gmail", "slack", "hubspot"], "maxItems": 10 } ``` ### Filters | Filter | Default | Description | |---|---|---| | `includePremiumOnly` | `false` | Return only premium apps (requires paid Zapier plan) | | `excludeBeta` | `false` | Exclude apps currently in beta | | `maxItems` | `100` | Maximum records to return (1–1000) | ### Example Output Record ```json { "appId": "e6e814c3-04c6-4329-828a-9184e44d623a", "slug": "gmail", "name": "Gmail", "description": "One of the most popular email services, Gmail keeps track of all your emails with threaded conversations, tags, and Google-powered search to find any message you need.", "categories": ["email", "google"], "partnerTier": "PLATINUM", "isPremium": false, "isBeta": false, "isUpcoming": false, "logoUrl": "https://zapier-images.imgix.net/storage/services/1afcb319c029ec5da10efb593b7159c8.png", "appUrl": "https://zapier.com/apps/gmail/integrations", "externalUrl": "https://mail.google.com/", "primaryColor": "db4437", "scrapedAt": "2026-05-20T10:00:00+00:00" } ``` ### FAQ **Do I need a Zapier account or API key?** No. The Zapier App Directory is publicly accessible without any authentication. **How many apps can I scrape?** The directory has 9,000+ apps. Set `maxItems` up to 1000 per run. **What is the difference between `isPremium` and `partnerTier`?** `isPremium` means users need a paid Zapier plan to use the app. `partnerTier` (PLATINUM/GOLD/SILVER/BRONZE) reflects the app's partnership level with Zapier — a PLATINUM app is not necessarily premium. **Can I track category rankings over time?** Yes — use `mode=byCategory` and run daily. Apps are returned in the order they appear on Zapier's category pages. See also the companion **Zapier Category Trend Tracker** actor for per-run rank fields. **How do I find a specific app's slug?** The slug is the URL segment on zapier.com/apps — for example, `gmail` from `https://zapier.com/apps/gmail/integrations`. **Is the data source reliable?** This actor uses Zapier's own public API and HTML pages with no anti-bot protection. Requests include automatic retries on rate-limit errors. ### Data Source Data is fetched from: - `https://zapier.com/api/v4/apps/` (search mode) - `https://zapier.com/apps/categories/{slug}` (category mode) - `https://zapier.com/apps/{slug}/integrations` (slug lookup mode) No authentication, proxy, or cookies required. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to fetch: search by keyword, browse a category, or lookup specific apps by slug. ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword to search for in app names (e.g. 'email', 'crm', 'slack').
