## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Whiskyfass.de Product Scraper

**Extract product data from [whiskyfass.de](https://whiskyfass.de)** - one of Germany's online shops for rum, gin, whisky, and gift onpacks. Give it one or more category pages (e.g. `/rum`, `/gin`, `/onpacks-mit-glaesern`) and it returns clean, structured data for every product listed: name, brand, price, price per liter, volume, ABV, availability, and images. Try it instantly with the **Run** button above - no coding required.

Because it runs on the Apify platform, you get scheduled runs, an API endpoint for every dataset, one-click exports, and integrations with Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, and dozens of other tools, all without hosting or maintaining any infrastructure yourself.

### Why use Whiskyfass.de Product Scraper?

- **Price monitoring** - track how rum, gin, and whisky prices change over time to spot deals or adjust your own pricing.
- **Market research** - build a dataset of available spirits, brands, and volumes across categories for competitor or category analysis.
- **Stock tracking** - know when specific bottles go in or out of stock.
- **Catalog building** - feed product data into a comparison site, price tracker, or internal spreadsheet without manual copy-pasting.

### How to use Whiskyfass.de Product Scraper

1. Click **Try for free** or **Run** to open the Actor.
2. In the **Category (start) URLs** field, add one or more whiskyfass.de category pages, such as `https://whiskyfass.de/rum` or `https://whiskyfass.de/gin`.
3. Set **Max products per category** to control how many products to collect from each category (the Actor stops paginating once it's reached).
4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
5. Open the **Dataset** tab to view, filter, and export your results.

### Input

The Actor accepts a simple JSON input, editable through the friendly UI in the **Input** tab:

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `startUrls` | array | One or more whiskyfass.de category page URLs, e.g. `https://whiskyfass.de/rum`. Don't include the pagination suffix (`_s2`, `_s3`, ...) - pagination is handled automatically. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Maximum number of products to collect per category (default: `5`). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Proxy settings. The site works without a proxy by default; enable Apify Proxy only if you run into blocking. |

Example input:

```json
{
    "startUrls": [
        { "url": "https://whiskyfass.de/rum" },
        { "url": "https://whiskyfass.de/gin" },
        { "url": "https://whiskyfass.de/onpacks-mit-glaesern" }
    ],
    "maxItems": 20
}
```

### Output

Each scraped product is stored as one item in the dataset. You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or Excel.

```json
{
    "productId": "8026",
    "name": "Bacardi 10 Jahre - Gran Reserva Diez - Extra Rare Gold Rum",
    "brand": "Bacardi",

### Cost estimation

This Actor scrapes plain HTML pages, so it's lightweight and fast, and works without a proxy in normal conditions, keeping run costs low. A run collecting a few dozen products across several categories typically finishes in well under a minute of compute time. On the Apify Free plan, that's enough for many daily monitoring runs within the free monthly usage.

### Tips for best results

- Keep `maxItems` reasonable for how often you plan to run the Actor - smaller values mean faster, cheaper runs.
- Add multiple category URLs in one run to collect several product ranges (rum, gin, whisky, onpacks, ...) in a single dataset.
- Schedule the Actor (via the **Schedules** tab) to track price and stock changes over time.
- If you notice missing results or blocked requests, enable Apify Proxy in the input.

### FAQ

**Is it legal to scrape whiskyfass.de?** This Actor only collects publicly available product information. You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with whiskyfass.de's Terms of Service and applicable law, including any restrictions on reuse of the collected data.

**Some fields are empty for a product.** Not every product page includes every attribute (e.g. some products don't list a GTIN). The Actor returns `null` for fields it can't find rather than guessing.

**Found a bug or missing field?** Open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab, and let us know. Custom modifications and dedicated support are also available on request.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Whiskyfass.de category pages to scrape, e.g. https://whiskyfass.de/rum. Do not include the pagination suffix (\_s2, \_s3, ...) - the Actor follows pagination automatically.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to scrape from each start URL. Once reached, the Actor stops paginating that category.

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

The site loads without a proxy under normal conditions. Enable Apify Proxy only if you start seeing blocked or throttled requests.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://whiskyfass.de/rum"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
}
```

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).
