## 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

## Walmart Product Search — Apify Actor

Unlock **real-time Walmart product data** at scale. Search any Walmart store's shelf by keyword and instantly receive structured, ready-to-use product listings — complete with live pricing, customer ratings, stock availability, and fulfilment options.

Whether you're building a price-monitoring dashboard, feeding an analytics pipeline, or powering competitive intelligence workflows, this actor delivers production-grade Walmart search data straight to your Apify Dataset in seconds.

***

### Key Features

- **Store-level precision** — target a specific Walmart store by ID, or let the system resolve the nearest store from a US ZIP code.
- **Real-time pricing** — every result reflects the actual current price and any active discount at the selected store.
- **Rich product metadata** — name, brand, images, ratings, review counts, seller identity, category path, and more.
- **Sponsored ad detection** — sponsored placements are included and clearly flagged so you can filter them as needed.
- **Flat JSON output** — zero nested objects. Every record is a simple key→value row, ready for spreadsheets, databases, or BI tools with no post-processing.
- **Seamless Apify integration** — results are pushed directly to the default Apify Dataset, accessible via API, webhooks, or the Apify console.

2. **Configure input** — provide a search keyword (`q`) and either a `store` ID or `zipcode`.
3. **Run the actor** — results appear in the default Apify Dataset, downloadable as JSON, CSV, Excel, or accessible via the Apify API.

## MCP server setup

```json

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).
