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.

This actor simplifies data collection for analysis, research, or content creation by providing structured information on fighter statistics, career details, and more. ### Features - **Comprehensive Data Extraction**: Captures extensive fighter profile details including stats, fight history, and images. - **Customizable URL Input**: Allows users to specify multiple URLs for targeted scraping. - **Flexible Item Limiting**: Set a maximum number of profiles to scrape per run or leave unlimited with zero. - **High Reliability**: Ensures data accuracy and consistency across runs. - **User-Friendly Configuration**: Easy setup with intuitive input parameters. ### Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | Example | |------------|----------|----------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------| | Urls | array | Yes | The URLs for the spider to scrape. | `["https://www.ufc.com/athlete/jessica-aguilar"]` | | item_limit | integer | No | Maximum items to scrape per actor run. Set to 0 for no limit. | `10` | ### Example Usage #### Input JSON ```json { "Urls": [ "https://www.ufc.com/athlete/jessica-aguilar" ], "item_limit": 10 } ```` #### Output JSON ```json [ { "url": "https://www.ufc.com/athlete/jessica-aguilar", "division": "Women's Strawweight Division", "status": "Not Fighting", "nickname": "\"Jag\"", "name": "Jessica Aguilar", "wins": 20, "losses": 8, "draws": 0, "wins_by_knockout": 3, "wins_by_submission": 7, "wins_by_decision": 10, "image_url": "https://ufc.com/images/styles/athlete_bio_full_body/s3/image/fighter_images/Jessica_Aguilar/AGUILAR_JESSICA_L.png?VersionId=u4Bhw7DC8WEfwM7pt2FUHKOw2N_JjbnF&itok=mIwfV6GP", "last_fight": { "matchup": "Rodriguez", "date": "Mar. 30, 2019" }, "actor_id": "qeneaa4hnasSYKJ8C", "run_id": "b62ZmroRUPB3wSOHJ" } ] ``` ### Use Cases - **Market Research and Analysis**: Gain insights into fighter popularity and performance trends. - **Competitive Intelligence**: Monitor competitors' fighters for strategic planning. - **Price Monitoring**: Track merchandise pricing related to popular fighters. - **Content Aggregation**: Create comprehensive content pieces or databases on UFC athletes. - **Academic Research**: Use data for sports science studies or statistical analysis. - **Business Automation**: Automate data collection for business intelligence tools. ### Installation and Usage 1. Search for "Ufc Fighter Profile Extractor" in the Apify Store. 2. Click "Try for free" or "Run". 3. Configure input parameters as needed. 4. Click "Start" to begin extraction. 5. Monitor progress in the log. 6. Export results in your preferred format (JSON, CSV, Excel). ### Output Format The output is a JSON array where each object represents a fighter profile with fields such as `url`, `division`, `status`, `nickname`, `name`, `wins`, `losses`, `draws`, `wins_by_knockout`, `wins_by_submission`, `wins_by_decision`, `image_url`, and `last_fight`. Each field provides specific information about the fighter, ensuring comprehensive data capture. ### Rate Limiting and Best Practices - **Rate Limiting**: Be mindful of the UFC website's rate limits to avoid being blocked. Implement delays between requests if necessary. - **Best Practices**: Use a diverse set of URLs for broader data collection and ensure your `item_limit` is set appropriately to manage resource usage. ### Error Handling Information The actor will log errors encountered during scraping, such as invalid URLs or network issues. Review the logs to identify and resolve any problems that arise during execution. ### Limitations and Considerations - **Website Changes**: The structure of the UFC website may change, potentially affecting data extraction. - **Data Completeness**: Some fighter profiles might have incomplete information due to varying content availability on the site. ### Support Section For custom/simplified outputs or bug reports, please contact: - Email: support@getdataforme.com - Subject line: "custom support" - Contact form: [Contact Us](https://getdataforme.com/contact/) We're here to help you get the most out of this Actor! # Actor input Schema ## `Urls` (type: `array`): The urls for the spider. ## `item_limit` (type: `integer`): Maximum items to scrape per actor run.
