## 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

## Olive Young Best Sellers Scraper (K-Beauty Rankings)

This Actor exports the live best-seller rankings from [Olive Young Global](https://global.oliveyoung.com), the international store of Korea's #1 health and beauty retailer. You get the top 100 products overall and in every category. Each product comes with its **USD price and discount, live stock level, rating, review count** and Olive Young's own **sales figure**.

Turn on **change tracking** and schedule a daily run to see which K-beauty products are climbing the rankings, which are new, and which changed price. Runs need no login and no browser, and they're fast: all 15 rankings (about 1,400 products) take about 13 seconds.

It's used for:

- K-beauty trend tracking and product research
- pricing and promotion monitoring
- sourcing and resale decisions
- brand and competitor dashboards

### What you get

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| `rank`, `category` | 2, All categories |
| `name`, `brand`, `brandKorean` | Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream 50ml Set (+10ml\*2ea+Tube Wringer), Dr. Althea, 닥터엘시아 |
| `priceSale`, `priceRegular`, `discountPercent`, `currency` | 22.80, 27.00, 15.56, USD |
| `rating`, `reviewCount` | 4.9, 1,404 |
| `stockQuantity`, `inStock` | 1,449, true |
| `rankingSalesAmount` | Olive Young's own sales figure for the product in this ranking |
| `isFlashDeal`, `hasGift`, `hasCoupon`, `isNew`, `isBestSeller` | Promotion flags |
| `rankChange`, `previousRank`, `isNewEntry`, `priceChanged`, `previousPriceSale` | Movement since your last run (change tracking) |
| `url`, `imageUrl`, `productId`, `brandId`, `categoryId` | Links and IDs |

`stockQuantity` is live, so comparing it between scheduled runs gives an estimate of units sold.

### How to use it

1. Choose **rankings**: `all` for the overall top 100, category names such as `Skincare`, `Suncare`, `Makeup`, `Hair`, `Face Masks` or `Supplements`, or `every` for the overall ranking plus every category.
2. Set how many products per ranking you want (up to 100).
3. Run it, then download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull them through the API.

#### Example input

```json
{
  "categories": ["Skincare", "Suncare", "Face Masks"],
  "maxProductsPerCategory": 100,
  "trackChanges": true
}
```

#### Track trends with a schedule

Leave **Track rank and price changes** on and add a schedule (Schedules > Create, for example daily). Every run then shows how far each product moved (`rankChange`, where positive means it moved up), whether it's a new entry, and whether the price changed since the previous run.

Connect the schedule to Google Sheets, Slack or a webhook through Apify integrations to get a daily K-beauty trend report.

### Pricing

Prices per 1,000 products, by your Apify plan:

| Apify plan | Price per 1,000 products |
|---|---|
| Free | $3.50 |
| Starter | $2.50 |
| Scale | $2.00 |
| Business and above | $1.50 |

On Starter, the overall top 100 costs $0.25, and every ranking (about 1,400 products) costs about $3.50. There's no start fee and no proxy cost.

You can set a maximum cost per run. The Actor stops cleanly when it reaches that limit and keeps what it collected.

### FAQ

**Which store is this?**
Olive Young Global (global.oliveyoung.com), with English names and USD prices for US delivery. It's not the Korean domestic site.

**What is `rankingSalesAmount`?**
It's the sales figure Olive Young attaches to each product in its best-seller ranking. The site doesn't document the period it covers, so treat it as a relative signal: compare products, and compare the same product across runs.

**Can I get reviews or full product details?**
Not yet. Open an issue if you need them, because requests shape the roadmap.

**Something broke?**
Open an issue on the Issues tab. Fixes usually ship within a few days.
