## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### ❓ FAQ

**Q1: Why do some keywords return 0 results when I run many at once?**

1688 occasionally throttles traffic, so a few keywords may return 0 in any given run. The Actor moves on to the next keyword after a friendly warning — partial results are still saved.

**Q2: Why do different products have different numbers of `quantity_prices` tiers?**

1688 merchants set their own bulk-tier pricing. Retail-friendly merchants typically set a single tier "≥1 piece"; traditional wholesalers set multiple tiers (e.g. 1~99 / 100~499 / ≥500); a few merchants set no tiers, in which case `quantity_prices` is an empty array.

**Q3: Do image URLs expire?**

Image URLs are usually stable, but merchants may change images when re-listing. For long-term storage, download and back up the images at extraction time.

**Q4: Will this Actor get me blacklisted on 1688?**

This Actor runs entirely anonymously — no login, no account credentials attached — so your 1688 account is never exposed to risk.

**Q5: Can I extract the full SKU matrix from product detail pages?**

No. This Actor extracts search-page summary data only. Full SKU and specification matrices live on each product's detail page and are not within this Actor's scope.
