## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Reliance Digital Catalogue by Category

Pulls every product on a Reliance Digital category listing (reliancedigital.in, India), page by page, with price, MRP, discount, brand, offers and stock. Use it to mirror an electronics category, track price moves on phones, laptops and appliances, or compare it against other Indian retailers.

### What you get

- One row per product: `id`, `item_code`, `name`, `brand`, `price`, `original_price` (the MRP), `discount_percent`, `currency` and `product_url`.
- `page` and `position` for exact placement inside the category listing.
- `in_stock`, so lines the site cannot sell are visible rather than missing.
- `categories`, the full category trail the product sits in.
- `offers`, the promotional tags shown on the tile, and `highlights`, the product's own bullet points.
- `image_url` for the listing image, plus optional subcategory crawling from the category tree.

### Input

Give one or more category slugs, URLs or names.

```json
{
  "categories": ["entry-level-laptops"],
  "locale": "in",
  "maxPages": 1,
  "expandSubcategories": false,
  "delayMs": 1200,
  "callsPerSession": 60,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "apifyProxyCountry": "IN"
  }
}
```

- `categories` (required): a slug such as `entry-level-laptops`, a `?category=` URL, or a name such as `"Entry Level Laptops"`. Names and ids resolve through the site's category tree.
- `maxPages`: pages per category. `0` means every page. Listings are requested 50 products a page.
- `expandSubcategories`: also crawl the children of each category.
- `delayMs` and `callsPerSession`: pacing and session rotation.
- `proxyConfiguration`: egress for the run. An Indian residential proxy is the default.

### Output

One dataset row per product per page.

```json
{
  "platform": "reliance-digital",
  "locale": "in",
  "category": "entry-level-laptops",
  "category_title": "Entry Level Laptops",
  "page": 1,
  "position": 1,
  "id": "494857",
  "item_code": "RDLAP494857",
  "name": "HP 15 Intel Core i3 13th Gen Thin and Light Laptop",
  "brand": "HP",
  "price": 36990,
  "original_price": 48999,
  "discount_percent": 24,
  "currency": "INR",
  "rating": null,
  "rating_count": null,
  "in_stock": true,
  "is_sponsored": false,
  "categories": ["Computers", "Laptops", "Entry Level Laptops"],
  "offers": ["Extra 10% off on HDFC cards"],
  "image_url": "https://cdn.pixelbin.io/v2/reliance/original/hp-15-thin-light.jpg",
  "product_url": "https://www.reliancedigital.in/product/hp-15-thin-and-light-laptop",
  "fetched_at": "2026-09-12T03:35:09.757Z"
}
```

`rating` and `rating_count` are always null: Reliance Digital does not publish ratings on listings. `is_sponsored` is always `false`, because there is no sponsored or paid-placement marker in the listing data. `seller` is always null.

### Use cases

- Daily price tracking on high-value electronics from `price`, `original_price` and `discount_percent`.
- Assortment and share-of-shelf analysis by `brand` within a category trail from `categories`.
- Promotion monitoring from `offers`, to see which bank and card deals are running.
- Availability from `in_stock`, and new-model detection by diffing `id` and `item_code`.

### Notes and limits

- Listings are requested 50 products a page.
- The catalogue is filtered by category slug. A plain category query string is ignored by the site's own API, so the actor always resolves your input to a slug first.
- A slug or name that matches nothing returns zero rows for that entry with a warning, and the run continues.
- No ratings and no sponsored signal exist in Reliance Digital listings. Both sets of columns are present for schema consistency and are always empty.
- Only the India storefront exists.
- An Indian residential proxy is the default and is recommended. Other egress can be refused at the edge.

### FAQ

**Do I need a proxy?** Yes, use an Indian residential proxy. That is the actor default.

**How many results can I get?** Everything the site lists for the category, 50 products a page. `maxPages` caps it, `0` means no cap.

**Does it need a login or an API key?** No.

**Can I see which products are ads?** No. Reliance Digital does not mark paid placements in its listing data, so `is_sponsored` is always false.

**Why are ratings empty?** The storefront's listing data carries no rating fields at all. For review strength on the same products, pull it from a retailer that publishes it.

# Actor input Schema

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

Reliance Digital category slugs, URLs or names, e.g. "entry-level-laptops", "https://www.reliancedigital.in/products/?category=laptops" or "Entry Level Laptops" (resolved from the category tree).

## `locale` (type: `string`):

Which storefront / locale.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

0 = all pages.

## `expandSubcategories` (type: `boolean`):

Also crawl each category's subcategories when the site exposes them.

## `delayMs` (type: `integer`):

Pause between page fetches.

## `callsPerSession` (type: `integer`):

Re-mint the session after this many page fetches.

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

On the Apify platform this decides egress. A residential proxy in the storefront's country is recommended (IN for the default). On our own servers it is ignored and our residential proxy is used.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "categories": [
    "entry-level-laptops"
  ]
}' |
apify call ikmal_suzali_atr/reliance-digital-catalog --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,ikmal_suzali_atr/reliance-digital-catalog"
        }
    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
