Indiegogo Scraper — campaigns with currency kept honest

Browse or search Indiegogo and get one row per campaign: backers, followers, funds raised, days left — and which platform actually hosts it, because the Indiegogo explore page does not only show Indiegogo campaigns.

Two things this Actor will not let you get wrong

Amounts are in each campaign's own currency, and this Actor does not convert them. A single page of results carried HK$, $ and € side by side in testing. So pledgedAmount and pledgedCurrency are separate fields, nothing is summed, and the run summary raises currencyWarning when more than one currency appears. Do not add these numbers together without converting first — an average across mixed currencies is a number with no meaning.

Not every campaign on the page is an Indiegogo campaign. Of 24 results in testing, 7 were hosted on gamefound.com. They are left in — dropping them would understate what the page shows — but every row carries platform, and the summary counts by it. Treat "Indiegogo results" and "Indiegogo campaigns" as different things.

What you get per campaign

Field	Example
title	HOVERAir VERSA: This Pocket Camera Can Fly
phase	Express crowdfunding
backers, followers	461, 1700 — 1.7k is parsed to a number
pledgedAmount, pledgedCurrency	2836002, HK$
pledgedRaw	HK$2,836,002 — the original string is kept
daysLeft, timeLeftRaw	55, 55 days left
platform	indiegogo.com or gamefound.com
projectId, url	direct link with tracking parameters stripped

Some cards show a phrase instead of an amount — goal reached in 19 minutes. Those get pledgedAmount: null and keep the phrase in pledgedRaw, rather than being coerced into a zero.

What this Actor does not return

Nothing about the creator. Indiegogo creators are frequently individuals; the card exposes a creator name and this Actor drops it. No campaign images either.

Input

{
  "term": "",
  "sort": "trending",
  "timing": "all",
  "maxItems": 24
}

Leave term empty to browse. The explore page renders about 24 cards, so that is the practical ceiling for one run. You are charged per campaign returned.

Summary (key-value store, SEARCH_SUMMARY)

totalProjects, totalBackers, byPlatform, currenciesSeen, currencyWarning, projectsWithoutAmount, plus the query you ran.

Limits, stated plainly

• The explore page is rendered in the browser, so this Actor runs a real browser and is slower than an HTTP scraper.
• There is no pagination here: one run reads one page of results.
• followers and backers are shown abbreviated on the card (1.7k), so they are precise to the site's own rounding, not to the unit.
