## 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

## The Outnet Product Scraper

Collect product data from THE OUTNET (theoutnet.com), the luxury designer
outlet. For every product you get its current price, the original price and
the discount, plus description, images, sizes, colors, category, availability
and publish date — in the currency of the storefront link you paste. Paste a
designer or collection link to watch one section, or the home page to collect
the whole catalog (about 6,300 products).

### How it works

1. Paste one or more links from theoutnet.com. The home page or a /products
   link collects the whole catalog, a /collections/... link collects that
   collection, a designer link (a /products link with the designer's brand
   filter) collects that designer, and a /search?q=... link collects that
   search. If a link carries the site's own sorting or filters (sort, brand,
   apparelSize, price), the actor applies them exactly as the site does.
   The storefront in the link (/en-us/, /en-gb/, ...) decides the currency:
   an en-gb link returns prices in GBP.
2. Choose how many results you want.
3. Start the actor — results appear as they are collected, so you can watch
   progress live.

Single product pages are not supported (the data comes from the listing
pages) — paste a listing, collection, designer or search link instead. A link
the actor cannot use comes back as a clearly marked error row, and the rest
of your links continue.

### What you pay

You only pay for what the actor actually does:

| What | Price | In plain words |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Starting the actor | $0.00005 | A tiny fixed amount each time you run it. |
| Pages visited | $0.0001 | A small amount for every page the actor reads to find your data — about one page per 200 products, plus one page per 50 products on non-English storefronts (those pages identify the localized size and color names). |
| Results saved | $0.004 | The main cost — only for products that actually land in your results. |

**Example:** a run that collects 1,000 products reads about 27 pages on an
English storefront (about 47 on a non-English one) and costs about $4.00 in
total. A designer section of 140 products costs about $0.60.

You can set a maximum spend per run, and the actor stops safely when it is
reached.

### What you get

Each result contains:

| Field | What it is |
| --- | --- |
| productId | The site's own product id — the key for telling runs apart. |
| title | Product name as shown on the site. |
| designer | Designer or brand name. |
| price | Current selling price, in the row's currency. |
| wasPrice | Original price before the discount (absent when not reduced). |
| discountPercent | How much is off, in percent. |
| currency, country | What the prices are in and which storefront they came from. |
| description | The product description text. |
| images | Product images with pixel dimensions. |
| colors, sizes | The choices offered for the product. |
| availableForSale | Whether it can currently be bought. |
| category | The merchandising category (Dresses, Sneakers, ...). |
| publishedAt | When the product was first published on the site. |
| productUrl | The product's page on theoutnet.com. |
| websiteName, competenceDate | Which site the row is from and which day it was collected. |

If one of your links is broken or unsupported, you get a clearly marked error
entry for it and the run continues with the rest of your links.

### Common questions

**How much does it cost to scrape THE OUTNET?**
About $4.00 per 1,000 products: 1,000 results at $0.004 plus roughly 27 page
reads on an English storefront (about 47 on a non-English one) at $0.0001 and
the $0.00005 run start.

**Can I export the results?**
Yes. Everything lands in a dataset you can download as JSON, CSV or Excel, or
read through the Apify API while the run is still going.

**Does it get current prices and discounts?**
Yes — every run reads live prices, so each row carries the current selling
price, the original price, and the discount between them, in the currency of
the storefront link you pasted.

**Which storefronts and currencies work?**
The actor reads any storefront link the site publishes (about 140, from
/en-us/ to /ar-ae/). Each storefront's own catalog, language and size system
are used, and prices are localized per storefront — an en-gb link returns
GBP prices, a de-be link returns the German-language Belgian catalog in
EUR, with size and color choices in the storefront's language. An
apparelSize filter in the link works on any storefront, in that
storefront's own size system.

**Can I collect only discounted items or one designer?**
Yes — paste the link that shows what you want. A designer link collects that
designer; add the site's own price or size filters to the link and the actor
applies them exactly like the site's own pages do.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Links from THE OUTNET (theoutnet.com). Paste the home page or a /products link to collect the whole catalog, a /collections/... or designer link for that section, or a /search?q=... link for one search. Sorting and filters in a link (sort, brand, apparelSize, price) are applied exactly as the site applies them. The storefront in the link (for example /en-us/ or /en-gb/) sets the currency of its results.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many items (0 = no limit).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy settings. Uses the datacenter group unless residential is explicitly selected.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.theoutnet.com/en-us/products?brand=Toteme"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

All collected THE OUTNET products, one product per row, priced in the currency of the pasted link's storefront. Broken or unsupported input links appear as clearly marked error rows and never stop the run.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "startUrls": [
        {
            "url": "https://www.theoutnet.com/en-us/products?brand=Toteme"
        }
    ],
    "maxItems": 100,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("eggcenter/theoutnet-product-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.theoutnet.com/en-us/products?brand=Toteme"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 100,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}' |
apify call eggcenter/theoutnet-product-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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