Map Your Show Conference Exhibitor Scraper

Scrape exhibitor lists from any Map Your Show conference — NAB Show, InfoComm, IBEX, IPPE, NACS, SPIE, and 100+ other major tradeshows. Returns booth assignment, website, full address, phone, social profiles, product categories, and contact persons in one record per exhibitor.

Map Your Show Scraper Features

• Works with any conference hosted at *.mapyourshow.com — point it at a URL and run
• Extracts 20+ fields per exhibitor including booth, address, phone, and four social profiles
• Pulls contact persons (name, title, phone, email) from the detail page when present
• Returns product/service categories so you can segment exhibitors by what they actually sell
• Handles list pagination via the MYS JSON API and detail extraction via the Vue contactinfo block
• Pre-configured with US residential proxy — required because MYS rate-limits datacenter IPs aggressively

How the Map Your Show Scraper Works

1. Provide a conference URL — The root URL (https://nab26.mapyourshow.com) or the exhibitor gallery page works equally well. The scraper detects the base host.
2. List pagination — Hits the MYS remote-proxy.cfm AJAX endpoint with the XMLHttpRequest header MYS expects. Returns 100 exhibitors per page until the conference is exhausted.
3. Detail extraction — For each exhibitor, fetches the detail page and parses contact info, social URLs, and address from the Vue component data block. Most scrapers stop at the list; this one doesn't.
4. Export — Records land in your Apify dataset as JSON, one per exhibitor.

FAQ

How do I scrape exhibitors from a Map Your Show conference?

Map Your Show Scraper handles it. Paste the conference URL into conferenceUrls, set maxItems, and run. The scraper pages through the MYS AJAX endpoint and follows each detail page for contact info, social profiles, and address.

Which conferences does this support?

Map Your Show Scraper supports any event hosted at *.mapyourshow.com. That covers NAB Show, InfoComm, IBEX, IPPE, NACS, SPIE, and roughly 100 more — the platform itself is the common factor, not the show.

How much does this actor cost to run?

Map Your Show Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing on the default_2603_basic profile at a 10x coefficient — the high coefficient covers residential proxy bandwidth, which MYS requires. Per-record cost is in the low single cents; a 1,000-exhibitor pull from a major show comes in around a few dollars.

Can I get exhibitor contact persons?

Map Your Show Scraper extracts contact persons from the Vue contactinfo block on each exhibitor's detail page when present. Output appears in exhibitor_contacts as a JSON-encoded array of {name, title, phone, email}. Not every exhibitor lists contacts — coverage depends on what the company published.

Does this actor need proxies?

Map Your Show Scraper requires residential proxy. MYS rate-limits datacenter IPs aggressively, especially on the AJAX list endpoint. US residential is configured by default; leave it alone unless you have a strong reason to override.

Why Use Map Your Show Scraper?

• Platform-wide coverage — One actor for 100+ tradeshows. You don't need a separate scraper per conference.
• Detail data, not just listings — Most MYS scrapers stop at the gallery. This one follows through to the detail page and pulls phone, address, socials, and contact persons.
• JSON API + HTML hybrid — Uses the MYS AJAX endpoint for fast pagination and falls back to detail-page HTML only where the API doesn't expose the field. Faster than a pure browser approach, more complete than a pure API one.
