## 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

## Chrome Web Store Extensions – Users, Rating, Version, Developer

Extrae fichas de extensiones de Chrome Web Store por id, por URL, por término de búsqueda o por categoría, con usuarios, valoración, versión y desarrollador. Opcionalmente incluye las últimas reseñas. Tiene un modo vigilancia que solo emite las extensiones nuevas o con cambios.

Extracts Chrome Web Store extension pages by id, URL, search term or category, with users, rating, version and developer. Optionally includes the latest reviews. It has a watch mode that only emits new extensions or extensions with changes.

### Use cases

- Competitive analysis: users, rating and version history of rival extensions
- Lead generation: find developers and publishers of extensions in a category
- Market research and trend tracking across the Chrome Web Store
- Review mining for product feedback

### What it does / Qué hace

- Lee la ficha pública de cada extensión: nombre, usuarios, valoración, número de valoraciones, versión, desarrollador, categoría, última actualización y descripción.

- Busca términos y categorías en la Store y toma hasta `maxResultados` extensiones de cada listado.

- Filtra por número mínimo de usuarios con `usuariosMin`.

- Con `modoVigilancia` activo, guarda en un almacén clave-valor qué extensiones ya viste y solo emite las que son nuevas o cambiaron en usuarios, valoración o versión.

- Reads the public page of each extension: name, users, rating, number of ratings, version, developer, category, last update and description.

- Searches terms and categories in the Store and takes up to `maxResultados` extensions from each listing.

- Filters by a minimum number of users with `usuariosMin`.

- With `modoVigilancia` on, it keeps in a key-value store which extensions were already seen and only emits the ones that are new or whose users, rating or version changed.

### Input / Entrada

| Campo | Descripción |
| --- | --- |
| `ids` | Ids de extensión (32 letras a-p). |
| `urls` | URLs de la ficha en la Store. |
| `busquedas` | Términos de búsqueda. |
| `categorias` | Categorías, por ejemplo `extensions/productivity`. |
| `usuariosMin` | Descarta extensiones con menos usuarios. |
| `maxResultados` | Máximo de extensiones por búsqueda o categoría. |
| `incluirResenas` | Incluye las últimas reseñas de la ficha. |
| `maxResenas` | Máximo de reseñas por extensión. |
| `modoVigilancia` | Emite solo extensiones nuevas o con cambios. |

Ejemplo / Example:

```json
{
  "ids": ["cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm"]
}
```

Modo vigilancia / Watch mode:

```json
{
  "busquedas": ["ad blocker"],
  "maxResultados": 10,
  "modoVigilancia": true
}
```

El estado del modo vigilancia se guarda en el almacén clave-valor `chrome-web-store-extensions-vigilancia`. Cada ficha emitida en este modo incluye `cambio` (`nueva` o `cambiada`) y `camposCambiados`. Las fichas sin cambios no se emiten y no se cobran.

Watch mode state is kept in the key-value store `chrome-web-store-extensions-vigilancia`. Each record emitted in this mode includes `cambio` (`nueva` or `cambiada`) and `camposCambiados`. Unchanged extensions are not emitted and not charged.

### Output / Salida

Un registro del dataset por extensión, con `id`, `nombre`, `url`, `descripcion`, `usuarios`, `valoracion`, `numValoraciones`, `version`, `desarrollador`, `categoria`, `ultimaActualizacion` y, si se pide, `resenas`. Si una ficha responde con error HTTP, se guarda un registro con `error`, sin cobro.

One dataset record per extension, with `id`, `nombre`, `url`, `descripcion`, `usuarios`, `valoracion`, `numValoraciones`, `version`, `desarrollador`, `categoria`, `ultimaActualizacion` and, when requested, `resenas`. If a page answers with an HTTP error, a record with `error` is stored and not charged.

Al terminar, el Actor guarda en `RESUMEN` los contadores de la ejecución: solicitadas, extraidas, descartadas, errores y, en modo vigilancia, `sinCambios`.

At the end, the Actor stores the run counters in `RESUMEN`: solicitadas, extraidas, descartadas, errores and, in watch mode, `sinCambios`.

### Pricing / Precios

Pago por evento / Pay per event:

- `extension-details`: 0,001 USD por ficha guardada en el dataset.

- `review`: 0,0002 USD por reseña incluida.

- `extension-details`: 0.001 USD per extension page saved in the dataset.

- `review`: 0.0002 USD per review included.

Las fichas con error o descartadas por usuarios no se cobran. Las fichas sin cambios en modo vigilancia tampoco.

Extensions with errors or discarded by the minimum users are not charged. Unchanged extensions in watch mode are not charged either.

#### Integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets)

- **Make**: add the Apify module "Run an Actor" (Actor `Flets_sv/chrome-web-store-extensions`), paste the input JSON, chain "Get Dataset Items" and map the fields to Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable or your CRM.
- **Zapier**: the Apify app offers "Run Actor" and "Fetch Dataset Items". Add a Schedule trigger and send each row to Gmail, Slack or Notion.
- **Google Sheets**: enable the official Google Sheets integration in the Actor's Integrations tab to append every run to a sheet, or call `https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/Flets_sv~chrome-web-store-extensions/run-sync-get-dataset-items?format=csv` with POST and your input from Apps Script (`UrlFetchApp`).
- **API and webhooks**: start the Actor from the REST API, use Schedules for recurring runs and add a webhook to notify your system when a run finishes.

Input to paste into Make or Zapier:

```json
{"ids":["cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm"],"urls":[],"busquedas":[],"categorias":[],"usuariosMin":0,"maxResultados":20,"incluirResenas":false,"maxResenas":10,"modoVigilancia":false}
```

### FAQ / Preguntas

**¿Qué pasa si una extensión no aparece?** Se registra un error con su código HTTP y no se cobra.
**What happens if an extension is not found?** An error record with its HTTP code is stored and it is not charged.

**¿Cómo se detecta una nueva versión?** En modo vigilancia se compara la versión guardada con la actual. Si cambió, la ficha sale con `cambio: cambiada` y `camposCambiados: ["version"]`.
**How is a new version detected?** In watch mode the stored version is compared with the current one. If it changed, the record comes out with `cambio: cambiada` and `camposCambiados: ["version"]`.

**¿Puedo probarlo sin red ni token?** Sí. Desde la raíz del repositorio ejecuta `npm run build -w actors/chrome-web-store-extensions && node actors/chrome-web-store-extensions/scripts/en-seco.mjs`. Usa un fixture local y comprueba duplicados, campos vacíos, la segunda pasada de vigilancia y la detección de cambios.
**Can I try it without network access or a token?** Yes. From the repository root run `npm run build -w actors/chrome-web-store-extensions && node actors/chrome-web-store-extensions/scripts/en-seco.mjs`. It uses a local fixture and checks duplicates, empty fields, the second watch pass and change detection.

**¿Se publican datos de la Store de forma masiva?** El Actor solo lee fichas públicas, con reintentos, y solo las que pides por id, URL, búsqueda o categoría.
**Does it scrape the whole Store?** No. It only reads public pages for the ids, URLs, searches or categories you ask for, with retries.

#### Integraciones (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets)

- **Make**: añade el módulo de Apify «Run an Actor» (Actor `Flets_sv/chrome-web-store-extensions`), pega el input JSON y encadena «Get Dataset Items»; después mapea los campos a Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable o tu CRM.
- **Zapier**: la app de Apify ofrece «Run Actor» y «Fetch Dataset Items». Ponle un disparador de horario y envía cada fila a Gmail, Slack o Notion.
- **Google Sheets**: en la pestaña Integrations del Actor activa la integración oficial con Google Sheets para añadir cada ejecución a una hoja, o llama desde Apps Script (`UrlFetchApp`) a `https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/Flets_sv~chrome-web-store-extensions/run-sync-get-dataset-items?format=csv` con POST y tu input.
- **API y webhooks**: lanza el Actor por API REST, programa ejecuciones (Schedules) y avisa a tu sistema con un webhook al terminar.

Ejemplo de input para pegar en Make o Zapier:

```json
{"ids":["cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm"],"urls":[],"busquedas":[],"categorias":[],"usuariosMin":0,"maxResultados":20,"incluirResenas":false,"maxResenas":10,"modoVigilancia":false}
