The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have. Learn more: https://docs.apify.com/actors/running/actors-in-store.md#pay-per-usage ## 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`). # README ## Contact If you encounter any issues or need to exchange information, please feel free to contact us through the following link: [My profile](https://apify.com/ecomscrape) ## What does Thumbtack.com Seller Details Page Scraper do? ### Introduction Thumbtack is an online platform that connects customers with local professionals across a wide range of service categories, serving millions of users seeking home improvement, wellness, and professional services.

You can paste URLs one by one, or use the Bulk edit section to add a prepared list. ## `ignore_url_failures` (type: `boolean`): If true, the scraper will continue running even if some URLs fail to be scraped after the maximum number of retries is reached. ## `max_retries_per_url` (type: `integer`): Limit the number of retries for each URL if the scrape is detected as a bot or the page fails to load ## `proxy` (type: `object`): Select proxies to be used by your scraper. ## Actor input object example ```json { "urls": [ "https://www.thumbtack.com/ca/redondo-beach/electrical-repairs/flash-guys-cleaning/service/402105454248648706?service_pk=402105454248648706&encoded_answers=eyJzZl9wayI6IjUzNDY5ODY4OTI3MDkxNTA4NiIsImFucyI6e319&project_pk=538243015136108551&lp_request_pk=538243022389714950&zip_code=90066&keyword_pk=102906936611670860&category_pk=219264413294461288&click_origin=pro%20list%2Fclick%20pro%20name&hideBack=true" ], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_retries_per_url": 2, "proxy": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
