## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## 🏄 Surfmarket Scraper

Pull live product data from [Surfmarket.org](https://www.surfmarket.org/en/) — Europe’s big surf / SUP / foil / skate shop — into clean CSV or JSON.

Pick a category, search by keyword, or paste a shop URL. Get titles, prices, stock flags, images, and direct product links.

### 💡 Perfect for...

- **Price monitoring:** Track shortboards, wetsuits, fins, and foil gear across the catalog.
- **Assortment research:** Compare brands like O’Neill, FCS, Futures, Tabou, Next, and more.
- **🤖 AI Agents:** Structured category/search input → product rows with URLs.
- **🔗 Workflows:** Feed Make, n8n, Zapier, or your own stack.

### ✨ Why you'll love this scraper

- 📂 **Browse by category** — surfboards, fins, wetsuits, SUP, foil, skate, windsurf, kite, and more.
- 🔎 **Keyword search** — find “oneill”, “fcs”, “tabou” across the shop.
- 🔗 **Paste a URL** — drop any Surfmarket category or product link.
- 💶 **Price filters** — min/max EUR.
- 📦 **Optional PDP enrich** — SKU, brand, description, and gallery images from the product page.
- 🌍 **Multi-locale** — English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Italian, and more (`/en/shop`, `/pt/loja`, `/es/tienda`, …).

> **Note on language:** Locale changes the site UI and category URLs. Product descriptions are written by Surfmarket/brands and often stay Spanish (or English) even on `/pt/` or `/en/` — the site does not auto-translate catalog text.

### 📦 What's inside the data?

For every product you can get:

- **Product:** name, brand, SKU, short description, full description, category
- **Price:** price, original price (when on offer), currency (EUR)
- **Reviews:** rating (0–5) and review count when available
- **Availability:** in-stock flag and labels (New, Sale, No Stock, …)
- **Media & link:** image URL(s) and Surfmarket product URL
- **Variants:** size / measure options shown on the listing (when present)

### 🚀 Quick start

1. Choose a **locale** (default English).
2. Pick a **category** (or set a custom category path / search / start URL).
3. Optionally enable **Enrich from product page**, set **max items**, and click **Start**.

    "category_path": "",
    "include_out_of_stock": true,

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,dadhalfdev/surfmarket-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
