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

Only applicable in category mode. ## `productUrls` (type: `array`): A list of specific Ubuy product page URLs to scrape directly (e.g. https://www.ubuy.co.in/product/SKU-slug). Only applicable in product URLs mode. Each URL is fetched as a full detail record. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Order the listing results before scraping. Useful to grab the cheapest or top-rated items first (search and category modes only). ## `minPrice` (type: `number`): Filter results to only include products with a price greater than or equal to this value in local currency. ## `maxPrice` (type: `number`): Filter results to only include products with a price less than or equal to this value in local currency. ## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`): If enabled, navigates to each product detail page to extract the original list price, discount, full specs table, and review counts. Leaving this disabled is faster and cheaper. ## `convertToUsd` (type: `boolean`): Add a price\_usd field converted from the local currency using a live exchange rate. The value is a labeled estimate for cross-country comparison, not the price you pay at checkout. ## `flattenOutput` (type: `boolean`): Spread the nested specifications object into separate spec\_\* columns. Turn this on for clean CSV, Excel, and Google Sheets exports where each specification gets its own column instead of one JSON blob. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum total product records to extract during this crawl run. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Residential proxies (the default) are needed to pass Ubuy's Cloudflare protection reliably. Datacenter works intermittently but gets blocked under load, so it is not recommended. ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "search", "domain": "ubuy.us", "keywords": "apple watch", "categoryUrl": "", "productUrls": [], "sortBy": "relevanceblender", "minPrice": 0, "maxPrice": 10000, "scrapeDetails": false, "convertToUsd": true, "flattenOutput": false, "maxItems": 10, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `dataset` (type: `string`): No description ## `keyValueStore` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
