## 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`).

- `category` - category path (e.g. `Car & Vehicle Electronics/Vehicle Electronics Accessories/Audio & Video Accessories`)
- `image` - main product image URL

**Context:**

- `source_asin`, `source_title`, `source_brand`, `source_category`, `source_image` - the product the similar items were found for
- `domain` - the marketplace queried
- `position` - order of the item in the results for that source product

### Example

**Input:**

```json
{
  "asin": "B0G2V8898X",
  "domain": ".com",
  "similar_limit": "10"
}
```

**Output (one item per similar product):**

```json
{
  "source_asin": "B0G2V8898X",
  "source_title": null,
  "source_brand": "Spedal",
  "source_category": "Car & Vehicle Electronics/Vehicle Electronics Accessories/Audio & Video Accessories",
  "source_image": "https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41J-WgccuxL.jpg",
  "domain": ".com",
  "position": 1,
  "asin": "B0G64V3PVR",
  "title": "OTTOCAST Mini Edge 2-in-1 Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto Adapter 2026",
  "brand": "OTTOCAST",
  "category": "Car & Vehicle Electronics/Vehicle Electronics Accessories/Audio & Video Accessories",
  "image": "https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31WBjLekrEL.jpg",
  "link": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0G64V3PVR"
}
```

**Bulk input (many items in one run):**

```json
{
  "asins": [
    "B0G2V8898X",
    "B0CJB6V2L5"
  ],
  "domain": ".com",
  "similar_limit": "50"
}
```

\* Provide at least one value in the single field or the list fields. Items are processed 5 at a time and each one is saved to the dataset as soon as it finishes. If an item fails, the run continues with the others and the failed items are listed in the `FAILED_ITEMS` record of the run's key-value store. When the run reaches your maximum cost per run, the remaining items are skipped.

***

### Use Cases

- **Competitor Discovery**: List the products that compete directly with yours or with a product you are evaluating
- **Product Research**: Expand one winning ASIN into a list of related products to analyze
- **Catalog Expansion**: Find related items to add next to an existing product line
- **Price and Listing Benchmarks**: Feed similar ASINs into the Product Detail or Sales History actors to compare prices and sales
- **Recommendation Engines**: Build "you may also like" lists for your own store or app
- **Market Mapping**: See which brands are active around a product in a category

echo '{
  "asin": "B0G2V8898X",
  "domain": ".com"

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {

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).
