## 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.

## Poshmark Listings Scraper

**💰 $1.55 / 1 000 results**  ·  pay only for results  ·  no credit card to try

*We do the dirty work so your dataset stays clean.* 😈

Scrape live Poshmark listings by search keyword or department/category — price, condition, size, brand, seller, and photos per row, fully resolved with zero per-item fetches.

</div>

***

### 🎯 What this scrapes

Poshmark doesn't publish a clean bulk-export of its own listings, and the field's own volume leader has zero reviews to show for 3,000+ runs. This Actor reads Poshmark's own server-rendered search and category pages — the same `window.__INITIAL_STATE__` payload the site ships to every browser, not a private reverse-engineered endpoint — so resale-market researchers and inventory tools get fully-resolved listing data (price, condition, seller, brand, photos) in one pass, no per-item detail fetch required.

### 🔥 What we handle for you

- 🛡️ **Browser fingerprint rotation** — `curl-cffi` impersonates real Chrome / Firefox / Safari TLS handshakes so the target sees a browser, not Python.
- 🌐 **Proxy rotation** via Apify Proxy — fresh session and exit IP on every block.
- 🔁 **Retries with exponential backoff** on `408 / 429 / 503` — up to 5 attempts per page, `Retry-After` honoured.
- 🧱 **Rate-limit-aware pacing** — when the target pushes back, we slow down instead of getting banned.
- 🧊 **Clean, typed dataset rows** — Pydantic-validated, ISO-8601 timestamps, stable IDs, JSON / CSV / Excel export straight from the Apify Console.
- 💰 **Pay-Per-Event pricing** — you only pay for results that hit your dataset. No data, no charge.

### 💡 Use cases

- **Reseller comps pricing** — pull current asking prices by keyword or category before pricing your own inventory.
- **Inventory sourcing** — scan a category for underpriced items matching a brand or condition profile.
- **Brand monitoring** — track how many listings and what price band a brand holds on Poshmark right now.
- **Resale-market research** — build a keyword-level snapshot of active supply, condition mix, and seller activity.

### ⚙️ How to use it

1. Click **Try for free** at the top of the page.
2. Fill in the input form — provide a search query, a category, or both (query wins when both are set).
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 |
|---|---|:--:|---|---|
| `query` | `string` | no\* | '—' | Free-text search keyword, e.g. "nike jacket". Takes precedence over `category` when both are set. |
| `category` | `string` | no\* | '—' | Department/category path to browse instead of searching, e.g. "Women-Dresses". Ignored when `query` is also set. |
| `maxResults` | `integer` | no | 200 | Cap on total emitted rows per run. Pagination stops early once reached. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | `object` | no | `{"useApifyProxy": true}` | Datacenter proxy by default. Never set this to the `RESIDENTIAL` group — it has zero available IPs on the free plan. |

\* At least one of `query` / `category` is required.

#### Example input

```json
{
  "query": "nike jacket",
  "maxResults": 3,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

### 💰 Pricing

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

| Event | USD | What it is |
|---|---:|---|
| `actor-start` | $0.05 | One-off warm-up charge per run |
| `listing-result` | $0.0015 | Charged for each listing row written to the dataset |

Example: 1 000 results at the rates above ≈ **$1.55**. No subscription, no minimum, no card to start — Apify gives every new account $5 of free credit.

### 🚧 Limitations

Sold/historical listings and seller-closet crawls are out of scope — only live, published listings from the search/category grid are returned. Custom sort order isn't supported; results follow Poshmark's own default relevance/recency ranking. Non-US Poshmark storefronts are unverified and out of scope for v1.

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need a Poshmark account or API key?**

No. This Actor reads Poshmark's own publicly server-rendered search and category pages — no login, no API key.

**What happens if I set both Search query and Category?**

Search query wins — Category is ignored and a warning is logged. Neither endpoint accepts a combined filter.

**Do I need a residential proxy?**

No — Poshmark's search and category pages return clean 200s from datacenter IPs. `proxyConfiguration` defaults to standard Apify Proxy, no forced group.

**Does this fetch each listing's detail page?**

No — the search/category grid data already carries every field this Actor emits, so there's no extra per-item HTTP call.

```

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).
