## 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.

# README

## ExpoFP Exhibitor List Scraper

Extract the **complete exhibitor list** from any trade show or conference that publishes its floor plan with **ExpoFP**. Give it an event URL and get a clean, structured dataset of every exhibitor — company name, description, website, categories, and logo — ready for lead generation, prospecting, and market research. Export to **CSV, Excel, or JSON**, or pull it straight from the API.

### What this Actor does

Thousands of trade shows publish their interactive floor plan on ExpoFP (`your-event.expofp.com`). This scraper reads the event's public exhibitor directory and returns it as structured data so your sales team doesn't have to copy company names off a floor plan by hand.

### Who it's for

- **B2B sales & lead generation** — build a prospect list of every company exhibiting at a show, before the doors open.
- **Event marketers & sponsors** — size up an event and its exhibitor mix.
- **Market researchers** — track who exhibits in an industry, season over season.
- **Recruiters & partnership teams** — find every company in a vertical, in one place.

### Input

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| **ExpoFP event URLs or slugs** | One or more events. Paste `https://big5global2025.expofp.com/` or just `big5global2025`. |
| **Max exhibitors per event** | Optional cap per event. `0` = all exhibitors. |

You can find the ExpoFP URL on an event's website wherever the interactive floor plan is embedded ("Floor plan", "Exhibitor directory", "Explore the show").

### Output

One row per exhibitor:

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `name` | Exhibitor / company name |
| `description` | Company description as shown on the floor plan |
| `website` | Company website (when the organizer provides it) |
| `linkTitle` / `linkUrl` | Custom profile link (when present) |
| `categories` | Product / sector categories, resolved to names |
| `logoUrl` | Company logo image URL |
| `eventTitle`, `eventInfo`, `eventStartDate`, `eventEndDate`, `eventUrl` | Event metadata |
| `exhibitorId`, `externalId` | Stable identifiers for deduplication |

### How to export an ExpoFP exhibitor list to CSV or Excel

1. Find the event's ExpoFP floor-plan URL (see "Is my event supported?" below).
2. Paste it into **ExpoFP event URLs or slugs**. Add as many events as you like.
3. Click **Start**.
4. Open the **Dataset** tab and click **Export** → choose **CSV**, **Excel**, or **JSON** — or pull the results from the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2).

That's the whole workflow to turn a trade-show floor plan into a spreadsheet of leads.

### Is my event supported?

This Actor works with any event powered by **ExpoFP**. To check in five seconds: open `https://<event-slug>.expofp.com/` in your browser — if the interactive floor plan loads, the Actor can scrape it. If the event uses a different floor-plan provider (Map Your Show, Swapcard, a2z, etc.), this particular Actor won't find it.

### Pricing

This Actor is billed **per exhibitor returned** (pay-per-result) — you only pay for the data you actually get. Run it on a handful of events or thousands; the cost scales with results. Events that return nothing (wrong slug, ended event) cost you nothing.

### Frequently asked questions

**How do I find an event's ExpoFP URL or slug?**
On the event's website, look for the interactive floor plan or exhibitor directory ("Floor plan", "Explore the show", "Exhibitor list"). The embedded map lives at `something.expofp.com` — that `something` is your slug.

**The run returned zero exhibitors or failed — why?**
Almost always one of: (a) the slug is wrong or misspelled, (b) the event isn't hosted on ExpoFP, or (c) the event has ended and been taken down. Confirm `https://<slug>.expofp.com/` loads a floor plan in your browser, then re-run. You are not charged for events that return nothing.

**Why are `website` or `categories` empty for some exhibitors?**
The Actor returns exactly what the event organizer published on the floor plan. Website and category coverage varies from event to event — some organizers fill in every field, others only list company names. Missing fields mean the organizer didn't publish them, not that the Actor missed them.

**Where are the booth numbers?**
ExpoFP's public floor-plan data does not expose a clean booth-to-exhibitor mapping, so booth numbers are not currently included. Every other published field is.

**How do I remove duplicate companies?**
Large multi-hall events occasionally list a company more than once. Deduplicate on the `exhibitorId` or `externalId` field — both are stable identifiers.

**Can I scrape several events at once?**
Yes. Add multiple URLs/slugs to the input; each event contributes its full exhibitor directory to the same dataset, tagged with `eventSlug` and `eventTitle`.

**Is the data live?**
Yes — each run reads the event's current public floor-plan data at run time, so you always get the latest published roster.

### Notes & limitations

- Only fields the event organizer publishes are available. Website and category coverage varies by event.
- This Actor reads the same public floor-plan data your browser loads; it does not access any private or attendee-gated content.
- Booth-number mapping is not currently exposed by ExpoFP's public data and is therefore not included.

### Support

Have a question or hit an event that won't scrape? Open an issue on the Actor and include the event URL — responses are usually fast, and adding the URL lets the fix get verified against your exact event.

# Actor input Schema

## `eventUrls` (type: `array`):

One or more ExpoFP-powered events. Paste the full floor-plan URL (e.g. https://big5global2025.expofp.com/) or just the slug (e.g. big5global2025). Each event yields its full exhibitor directory.
## `maxExhibitorsPerEvent` (type: `integer`):

Cap the number of exhibitors returned per event. Set to 0 for no limit (all exhibitors).

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "eventUrls": [
    "big5global2025",
    "https://busworld2025.expofp.com/"
  ],
  "maxExhibitorsPerEvent": 0
}
