## 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

## Shopify Product Catalog Exporter — Prices, SKUs, Variants & Images

**Export the full product catalog of any Shopify store** to CSV, Excel, JSON or Google Sheets: titles, prices, compare-at prices, SKUs, variants, vendors, product types, tags, images and publish dates. **One row per product.**

Built for **e-commerce analysts, dropshippers, price-monitoring teams, marketplaces and agencies** who need clean catalog data fast.

- 🗂️ **Whole catalogs.** Pagination is handled for you. Leaving the limit at 0 exports up to 10,000 products per store; set an explicit number (up to 50,000) when you need more.
- 🏷️ **Real pricing.** Price, min and max variant price, compare-at price and an `onSale` flag, in the store's own currency.
- 🧬 **Variants and SKUs** included (optional), up to 100 per product.
- ⚡ **No browser.** It reads Shopify's public product feed, so a 2,000-product catalog takes seconds.
- 💸 **$0.50 per 1,000 products** — about half of what comparable actors charge. Stores without a public feed cost nothing.

### What you get per product

| Group | Fields |
|---|---|
| **Identity** | `storeDomain`, `storeUrl`, `productId`, `title`, `handle`, `productUrl` |
| **Classification** | `vendor`, `productType`, `tags` |
| **Pricing** | `price`, `priceMin`, `priceMax`, `compareAtPrice`, `onSale`, `currency` |
| **Stock & variants** | `available`, `variantCount`, `variants[]` with `sku`, `title`, `price`, `compareAtPrice`, `available` |
| **Media & dates** | `imageUrl`, `imageCount`, `createdAt`, `publishedAt`, `updatedAt` |
| **Optional** | `description` (HTML stripped, up to 2,000 characters) |

### Use cases

- **Competitor price monitoring.** Export a competitor's catalog on a schedule and diff prices, new products and discount depth.
- **Product research & dropshipping.** Find what sells in a niche: vendors, product types, price bands and how often a store adds products.
- **Marketplace & feed onboarding.** Bootstrap a catalog from a supplier's Shopify store instead of asking for a spreadsheet.
- **Analytics.** Build price histograms, assortment breadth and discount analyses across many stores at once.

### How to use it

1. Paste store domains into **Store domains or URLs** (or paste a column into **Bulk paste**). Both `brand.com` and `brand.myshopify.com` work.
2. Optional: set **Max products per store** to sample a store first, turn off variants, or turn on descriptions.
3. Click **Start**, then export as CSV, Excel or JSON, or pull the data from the API.

#### Input example

```json
{
  "stores": ["deathwishcoffee.com", "ugmonk.com"],
  "maxProductsPerStore": 0,
  "includeVariants": true,
  "includeDescription": false
}
```

#### Output example (a real result)

```json
{
  "storeDomain": "deathwishcoffee.com",
  "productId": 7237656248375,
  "title": "Death Grip Bottle Opener",
  "productUrl": "https://deathwishcoffee.com/products/death-grip-bottle-opener",
  "vendor": "BAMKO",
  "productType": "Accessories",
  "price": 8,
  "priceMin": 8,
  "priceMax": 8,
  "currency": "USD",
  "available": true,
  "variantCount": 1,
  "variants": [{ "sku": "DWC-BO-01", "title": "Default Title", "price": 8, "available": true }],
  "imageUrl": "https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0271/7209/files/...jpg"
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-event. Platform usage is included.

| Event | Price |
|---|---|
| Product exported | **$0.0005** ($0.50 per 1,000 products) |
| Store without a public product feed (or not Shopify) | **Free** (you get a row explaining why) |
| Run start | Apify's standard start fee (a fraction of a cent per run) |

| Products | Cost |
|---|---|
| 1,000 | $0.50 |
| 10,000 | $5 |
| 100,000 | $50 |

Tip: set **Max cost per run** in the run options. The actor stops cleanly at your budget and keeps everything already delivered.

### Performance

Measured on Apify with 10 real stores: **2,389 products in 5 seconds** at 512 MB, with a peak of 84 MB.

### FAQ

**Where does the data come from?**
From `/products.json`, the public product feed that Shopify serves to any visitor. No login, no browser, nothing hidden is accessed.

**Does it work with headless stores (Hydrogen, Next.js)?**
Yes. If the custom domain doesn't serve the feed, the actor finds the store's `*.myshopify.com` domain in the page and exports from there.

**Why does a store return nothing?**
Because it isn't Shopify, its feed is disabled, or the storefront is password-protected. You get one free row per store explaining it.

**How many products can I export from one store?**
With **Max products per store = 0** you get up to 10,000, so a huge catalog never turns into a surprise bill. Set an explicit number (up to 50,000) to go further. Tested on a 25,000-product store: 10,000 products in under 2 minutes with a memory peak of 84 MB.

**Is stock quantity included?**
Shopify's public feed exposes availability (`available`), not exact inventory counts, so the actor reports availability per product and per variant.

# Actor input Schema

## `stores` (type: `array`):

Shopify store domains or URLs, one per line (e.g. <code>deathwishcoffee.com</code> or <code>brand.myshopify.com</code>).

## `storesText` (type: `string`):

Paste a whole column of store domains, separated by new lines, commas, semicolons or spaces.

## `maxProductsPerStore` (type: `integer`):

0 = the whole catalog, capped at 10,000 products per store so a huge catalog never becomes a surprise bill. Set an explicit number (up to 50,000) to go past that, or a small one to sample a store first.

## `includeVariants` (type: `boolean`):

Adds every variant with its SKU, price, compare-at price and availability (up to 100 per product).

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Adds the product description as plain text (HTML removed, up to 2,000 characters). Off by default because it makes exports much heavier.

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Process only the first N unique stores. 0 = no limit.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many stores are exported in parallel. Leave empty for automatic.

## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`):

Maximum time for each request to the product feed.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "stores": [
    "deathwishcoffee.com",
    "ugmonk.com"

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).
