## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

Categories are read live from the site's own category grid, not hardcoded, so the list stays current as Dunkin' rotates seasonal drops.

### 🔍 What does Dunkin' Donuts Menu Scraper do?

Dunkin' Donuts Menu Scraper extracts the live national menu from [dunkindonuts.com](https://www.dunkindonuts.com/en/menu): the category each item belongs to, its name, and its image. Turn on **Fetch Full Details** to also open each item's own page for its full description, calorie count, and size options. Run it on Apify with no setup, schedule it to catch new seasonal drinks and limited-time items, and export the results as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

This Actor does not include price. Dunkin's own website only shows prices after a shopper picks a specific store location, and there is no national price list anywhere on the site, confirmed by checking an actual item page. Rather than guess or average a number, this Actor leaves price out entirely so every field you get back is real.

### 💡 Why use Dunkin' Donuts Menu Scraper?

**Building a nutrition or calorie database?** Turn on Fetch Full Details to get real per-item calorie counts and descriptions instead of retyping them from a website by hand.

**Tracking menu changes for research or competitive intel?** Turn on Incremental Monitor Mode and only get back items that are new or changed since your last run, so a scheduled Actor catches new seasonal drops (like The Pumpkin Patch or Latest Drops) without re-downloading the whole menu every time.

**Building a diet-tracking app?** Pull structured item and nutrition data straight from the source instead of maintaining your own scraper against a geo-gated, JavaScript-rendered site.

The comparable menu scrapers on the Apify Store cover other single fast-food chains. Some return only a flat list of item names with no category structure; others add calorie data but charge a separate fee just to start a run. This Actor reads its category list live from the site itself instead of a hardcoded guess, offers the same optional nutrition data as the pricier competitors, and charges no start fee.

### ⚙️ Input

Configure the run from the Apify Console form, or pass the same fields via the API.

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `categories` | array | No | Only return items from these menu categories. Leave empty for every category. The live list can shift with the season. |
| `searchTerm` | string | No | Only return items whose name or description contains this text. |
| `fetchDetails` | boolean | No | Open each item's own page for description, calories, and size options. Costs one extra page load per item, so it defaults off. |
| `minCalories` / `maxCalories` | integer | No | Filter by calorie range. Requires Fetch Full Details, since calories only exist on the item's own page. |
| `maxItems` | integer | No | Maximum number of items to return in this run, after filters. Defaults to 25. |
| `onlyNewOrChanged` | boolean | No | Only return items that are new or changed since your last run with the same monitor state name. Pair with a schedule to track menu changes over time. |
| `stateName` | string | No | Name for this run's monitor state, used only when Incremental Monitor Mode is on. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | No | Proxy settings. Defaults to US residential, required because the site only serves menu data to US traffic. |

### 📦 Output

Each dataset item is one menu item. Fields beyond `category`, `itemName`, and `imageUrl` are only present when Fetch Full Details is turned on.

### ❓ FAQ

**Does this include prices?**
No. Dunkin's website only shows prices after you select a specific store, and there is no national price list to pull from. This Actor reports only what is genuinely available without a location: category, name, image, and (optionally) description, calories, and size options.

**How many categories does this actually cover?**
The live category grid on Dunkin's site currently lists 14 categories. Some are seasonal or limited-time (like The Pumpkin Patch or Latest Drops), so the exact list can change as Dunkin' updates its own site. This Actor reads that list fresh on every run instead of relying on a hardcoded set.

**Does every run return the full menu?**
Not always. Dunkin's site itself loads its menu inconsistently category by category, so a run's real coverage of the roughly 128-item full menu has ranged from about 48 to 98+ items across test runs, depending on which category tiles the site cooperates with that run. This is a real limitation of the source site, not a bug, and it never produces duplicate or mislabeled items: whatever loads is verified against the site's own declared per-category counts.

**Why does a run sometimes skip an item even after it loads?**
A small number of menu entries (mainly cross-promoted deal items) link to a page template this Actor doesn't parse for full details. These are skipped automatically when Fetch Full Details is on, so the run still finishes with the items it could read cleanly.

**Is this legal?**
This Actor only reads publicly available menu information the same way a visitor's browser would. You are responsible for using the data in line with Dunkin's terms of service and any applicable law in your jurisdiction.

**Something looks off or missing. Can you fix it?**
Yes. Open an issue from the Actor's Issues tab with details, and we'll take a look. Custom extensions (for example, per-location pricing) can also be discussed there.

# Actor input Schema

## `categories` (type: `array`):

Only return items from these menu categories. Leave empty to return every category. The live category list can change with the season (e.g. limited-time drops), so this uses suggested values rather than a locked set.

## `searchTerm` (type: `string`):

Only return items whose name or description contains this text (not case-sensitive). Leave blank to skip this filter.

## `minCalories` (type: `integer`):

Only return items with at least this many calories. Requires Fetch Full Details to be on, since calories are only known after opening an item's own page, so this only sees items within the Max Items cap below, not the whole menu. Leave blank for no minimum.

## `maxCalories` (type: `integer`):

Only return items with at most this many calories. Same Fetch Full Details and Max Items requirement as Minimum Calories above. Leave blank for no maximum.

## `fetchDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Open each item's own page for its full description, calorie count, and size options. This is what makes calorie filtering possible, but it costs one extra page load per item, so it defaults off for a fast, cheap first pass. Turn it on once you know which items you actually need.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of menu items to return in this run, after any filters above are applied.

## `onlyNewOrChanged` (type: `boolean`):

Only return items that are new or whose description, calories, or size options changed since your last run with the same monitor state name. Pair with an Apify schedule to catch new seasonal drops (Dunkin' rotates limited-time categories like The Pumpkin Patch and Latest Drops) without re-downloading the whole menu every time.

## `stateName` (type: `string`):

Name for this run's incremental state, used only when Incremental Monitor Mode is on. Use different names to track separate category filters independently.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Dunkin's website is geo-gated to US traffic: Cloudflare redirects every non-US request (even a real browser) straight to a 403 page, confirmed live during development. Apify Proxy with the RESIDENTIAL group and US country is required; datacenter or non-US proxies will not reach the menu.
