## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper

Scrape the public [Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi)](https://sciencebasedtargets.org/target-dashboard) target dashboard. Returns 14,000+ companies with net-zero commitments — temperature alignment (1.5°C, well-below 2°C, 2°C), near-term and long-term target classifications, scope coverage, sector, region, ISIN/LEI, and full target language. No login required.

---

### SBTi Scraper Features

- Extracts 24 fields per company including ISIN, LEI, and SBTi internal ID
- Returns near-term, long-term, and net-zero target statuses as separate columns
- Captures temperature alignment (1.5°C, well-below 2°C, 2°C) per target horizon
- Returns target scope coverage as a structured string (`1+2`, `1+2+3`)
- Filter by SBTi status (Committed, Targets set, Removed) or region (Europe, Asia, Americas, Africa, Oceania)
- Source data is SBTi's public XLSX export — no login, no scraping ToS gray area, no proxy

---

### Who Uses SBTi ESG Data?

- **ESG analysts and rating agencies** — Cross-check corporate climate commitments against SBTi's validated dataset
- **Sustainable investment funds** — Screen portfolios for companies with validated near-term and net-zero targets
- **Climate disclosure consultants** — Benchmark client commitments against sector peers
- **Procurement and supply-chain teams** — Identify suppliers already aligned with science-based targets, which simplifies your Scope 3 reporting
- **Academic and policy researchers** — Track temperature-alignment adoption rates by sector and region over time

---

### How the SBTi Scraper Works

1. **Configure filters** — Pick a status (Committed, Targets set, Removed, or All) and a region. Leave both at `All` to get everything.
2. **Fetch the dataset** — The actor downloads SBTi's public XLSX target export, the same one the dashboard front-end consumes.
3. **Parse and filter** — Each row is normalized into a flat record with separate columns per target horizon. Filters apply during parsing.
4. **Export** — Records land in your Apify dataset as JSON, one company per record.

### FAQ

#### How do I scrape SBTi target dashboard data?

SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper handles it. Pick a status filter (or `All`) and a region (or `All`), set `maxItems`, and run. The actor pulls SBTi's public XLSX export and emits one record per company with each target horizon broken out.

#### How much does this actor cost to run?

SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper uses pay-per-event pricing on the `default_2603_basic` profile at a 1.5x coefficient. No proxy fees. The full 14,000-company dataset costs a few dollars in platform fees.

#### Can I filter by sector or country?

SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper exposes status and region filters at input. For sector or country, every record carries those fields explicitly — a single downstream filter on `sector = 'Consumer Staples'` or `country = 'Germany'` gets you the slice.

#### Does this include net-zero target years?

SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper returns near-term, long-term, and net-zero target years as separate integer columns, alongside the temperature classification for each horizon. Useful if you want to chart commitment timelines by sector.

#### Does this actor need proxies?

SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper runs proxy-free. SBTi publishes the XLSX export at a stable public URL with no rate limiting in normal use.

Need CDP, GRI, or TCFD disclosure data alongside SBTi, or scheduled re-runs when the dashboard updates? [Open an issue](https://console.apify.com/actors/issues) or get in touch.

### Why Use SBTi Target Dashboard Scraper?

- **Three horizons, separate columns** — Near-term, long-term, and net-zero targets each get their own status / classification / year fields. No string parsing required.
- **Joinable on ISIN and LEI** — When SBTi publishes them, you get them. That covers the path from climate commitment to security master data.
- **No scraping fragility** — Uses SBTi's official XLSX export, not the dashboard HTML. The schema is stable across SBTi front-end changes.
