## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

</div>

***

### 🎯 What this scrapes

ColourPop collections as clean rows.

### 🔥 What we handle for you

Retries temporary failures.
Stops at your item limit.

### 💡 Use cases

- Weekly ColourPop price checks.
- Launch and sale monitoring for beauty resellers.

### ⚙️ How to use it

1. Click **Try for free** at the top of the page.
2. Fill in the input form — most fields have sensible defaults.
3. Click **Start**. Output streams into the run's dataset.
4. Export from **Storage → Dataset** as JSON, CSV, or Excel — or fetch via the API.

### 📥 Input

| Field | Type | Required | Default | Notes |
|---|---|:--:|---|---|
| `collectionUrl` | `string` | **yes** | 'https://colourpop.com/collections/lips' | Address of a ColourPop collection page to export. |
| `maxItems` | `integer` | no | 3 | Maximum number of product rows to deliver. |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "collectionUrl": "https://colourpop.com/collections/lips",
  "maxItems": 3
}
```

### 📤 Output

Every row is one dataset item.

| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| `product_url` | `string` | Link to the product page. |
| `product_name` | `string` | Product name as shown on the collection page. |
| `price_text` | `['string', 'null']` | Price as shown on the page, for example $32.00. |
| `collection_url` | `['string', 'null']` | Collection page the row came from. |

#### Example output

```json
{
  "collection_url": "https://colourpop.com/collections/lips",
  "price_text": "$32.00",
  "product_name": "Daybreak and Moonlight",
  "product_url": "https://colourpop.com/products/daybreak-and-moonlight-fresh-kiss-trio"
}
```

### 💰 Pricing

Pay-Per-Event — you pay only when these events fire:

| Event | USD | What it is |
|---|---:|---|
| `product-result` | $0.029 | One delivered product row. |

Example: 1 000 product rows at the rates above ≈ **$29.00**. No subscription, no minimum — Apify gives every new account $5 of free credit.

### 🚧 Limitations

- Collection pages only; product detail pages are not covered.
- Price text is shown as on the page; sale versus regular is not split.

### ❓ FAQ

**What does each row contain?**

Product link, name and the price as shown on the page.

**Is there a start fee?**

No. Only delivered rows are billed.

### 💬 Your feedback

issue on the Actor's **Issues** tab on Apify Console — we ship
fixes weekly and we read every report.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "collectionUrl": "https://colourpop.com/collections/lips",
  "maxItems": 3
}' |
apify call devilscrapes/colourpop-products-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,devilscrapes/colourpop-products-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).
