They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows. 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. - **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use). - **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`. - **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`. - **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`. - **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## CarParts.com Scraper: Prices, Stock & Specs

Every part, every price, and an alert the moment either changes.
Pull any CarParts.com category into a clean table: price, stock, brand, part number, fitment notes, and warranty, with optional alerts when a price drops or a part comes back in stock.

**CarParts.com is one of the largest online auto parts retailers in the US.** This Actor turns any category page into structured rows you can sort, compare, and monitor. No login, and pricing that does not tax small or scheduled runs.

💵 Real prices
Live price, stock status, sale and free-shipping flags on every part.

🔧 Full specs
Brand, part number, fitment notes, series, and warranty terms.

🔔 Price-drop alerts
Only new or changed parts on your next scheduled run.

⚡ No run-start tax
Pay only for the parts you get.

### 🔍 What does CarParts.com Scraper do? It extracts real parts listings from any CarParts.com category or search-result page. Every row carries the part title, brand, manufacturer part number, live price, stock status, review count, and the product's own specifications: fitment notes, series, and warranty terms. **Coverage is honest, not inflated.** A handful of listings do not publish a brand or a full spec block. Those fields are left empty rather than filled with a guess, so what you get is exactly what the site shows. ### 💡 Why use CarParts.com Scraper? **"I resell parts and need to price against the market."** You need real prices across a whole category, not a handful you checked by hand. Point this at a category and get every part with its current price and sale status in one table. **"I need to know the second something drops in price."** Turn on monitor mode and put this Actor on a schedule. You only get back the parts whose price or stock actually changed, so a price drop or a restock is impossible to miss. **"I'm matching parts by number, not by name."** Every row carries the manufacturer part number and the product link, so you can join this data against your own catalog instead of fuzzy-matching product titles. ### 🛠️ How to use CarParts.com Scraper

### 🧠 Tips Run one category per Actor run and give each its own monitor state name, so price tracking for brake rotors stays separate from tracking for filters. Pair monitor mode with a daily schedule to build your own price history without re-downloading the whole catalog every time. ### ❓ FAQ #### Do I need a login or a proxy? No. CarParts.com listing data is public, and this Actor is built to load it reliably without a login or a proxy, which keeps your runs fast and cheap. #### Can I track price drops and restocks? Yes. Turn on incremental monitor mode and run this Actor on a schedule. It only returns parts that are new or whose price or stock status changed since your last run with the same monitor state name. #### Can I scrape parts for a specific vehicle? Yes. Set Part type, Vehicle make, and optionally Vehicle model and Vehicle year, and the Actor builds the matching CarParts.com page for you. You can also paste a filtered page link directly into Start URLs if you already have one. #### Why do a few parts have no brand or specs? Because the site does not publish those fields for every listing. This Actor leaves them empty instead of guessing, so every value you get is real. # Actor input Schema ## `partType` (type: `string`): The kind of part to search for, as it appears in the CarParts.com URL (e.g. "brake-rotors"). Pick a common one below, or type any part-type slug from a CarParts.com URL you've visited, since this list is a helpful starting point, not the full catalog. ## `make` (type: `string`): Only return parts that fit this vehicle make. Combine with Part type for a real fitment search (e.g. brake rotors for Ford). ## `model` (type: `string`): Only return parts that fit this model, as it appears in a CarParts.com URL (e.g. "f-150" for the Ford F-150). Only used together with Vehicle make. ## `year` (type: `integer`): Only return parts that fit this model year. Only used together with Vehicle make and Vehicle model; leave at 0 for any year. ## `brand` (type: `string`): Only return parts made by this brand. Combine with Part type to shop one brand's version of a part (e.g. Bosch brake rotors). Leave Vehicle make blank to use this filter. This list is a helpful starting point, not the full catalog; type any brand slug from a CarParts.com URL if yours isn't listed. ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Optional extra category or search-result pages to scrape, on top of any filters set above. Paste any CarParts.com category URL if you already know the exact page you want. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): This Actor loads CarParts.com reliably without a proxy, so the default is off, which is the cheapest and fastest option. Turn on a US proxy only if a run reports that the site is not available in your region. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of parts to return in this run. Each page needs a real browser to load, so keep this modest for a quick, low-cost run. ## `onlyNewOrChanged` (type: `boolean`): Only return parts that are new or whose price or stock status changed since your last run with the same monitor state name. Pair with an Apify schedule to watch a category for price drops or restocks. ## `stateName` (type: `string`): Name for this run's incremental state, used only when incremental monitor mode is on. Use different names to track separate categories independently. ## Actor input object example ```json { "partType": "", "make": "", "model": "", "year": 0, "brand": "", "startUrls": [], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false }, "maxItems": 20, "onlyNewOrChanged": false, "stateName": "default" } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `parts` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
