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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Angi Home Services Scraper Scrape Angi (formerly Angie's List) home-service provider listings by category and location. Supply a service category (e.g. "plumbers", "electricians") and a city/state, or paste direct provider profile URLs, and the actor returns rich business records including phone, website, rating, reviews, service areas, address, and certifications. ### What you get Each record includes: | Field | Description | |---|---| | `pro_id` | Angi provider ID from the profile URL | | `business_name` | Business name | | `angi_url` | Canonical Angi profile URL | | `service_categories` | Service categories (comma-separated) | | `description` | Business description / about text | | `phone` | Phone number | | `address` | Street address | | `city` | City | | `state` | State (2-letter code) | | `zip` | ZIP code | | `service_area_zips` | ZIP codes served (comma-separated) | | `rating` | Average rating (0–5) | | `reviews_count` | Number of reviews | | `certified` | Angi-certified flag | | `founded_year` | Year founded | | `employees_range` | Employee count range | | `super_service_award` | Super Service Award flag | | `awards` | Awards (comma-separated) | | `hours` | Business hours | | `email` | Business email | | `website` | Business website URL | | `scraped_at` | ISO timestamp | ### How to use #### Option A — Category + Location Search Set **Service Category** (e.g. `plumbers`) and **Location** (e.g. `new-york/ny`) and leave Start URLs empty. The actor builds the search URL automatically. ```` Category: plumbers Location: new-york/ny Max Items: 50 ``` Location format: `{city}/{state}` where city uses hyphens (e.g. `los-angeles/ca`, `chicago/il`, `houston/tx`). #### Option B — Direct Profile URLs Paste one or more Angi provider profile URLs into Start URLs. Each URL should look like: ``` https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nc/pineville/kale-lawn-care-reviews-194023.htm ``` This is the fastest way to scrape specific providers you already know. #### Option C — Companylist Search URLs Paste an Angi companylist URL directly — the actor will extract all profile links from the results page and scrape each one. ``` https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ny/new-york/plumbers.htm ```` ### Common service categories `plumbers`, `electricians`, `hvac`, `landscapers`, `painters`, `roofers`, `general-contractors`, `handyman`, `carpet-cleaning`, `maid-service`, `pest-control`, `tree-service`, `garage-door`, `locksmiths` ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `startUrls` | Array | Angi companylist or pro profile URLs (overrides category/location) | | `category` | String | Service category slug (e.g. `plumbers`) | | `location` | String | City/state in URL format (e.g. `new-york/ny`) | | `certifiedOnly` | Boolean | Only return Angi-certified pros | | `maxItems` | Integer | Maximum records to return (0 = unlimited) | ### Notes - Angi uses Cloudflare/WAF protection on provider pages — residential proxy is required and included. - The actor uses `__NEXT_DATA__` JSON extraction for reliable, structured data. - HTML DOM fallback ensures resilience against site redesigns. - Keep `maxItems` reasonable (50–500) for stable runs; large batches may take time due to residential proxy usage. # Actor input Schema ## `sp_intended_usage` (type: `string`): Please describe how you plan to use the data extracted by this crawler. ## `sp_improvement_suggestions` (type: `string`): Provide any feedback or suggestions for improvements. ## `sp_contact` (type: `string`): Provide your email address so we can get in touch with you. ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Angi companylist or pro profile URLs to scrape.
