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 ## Thomann Product Catalog Price Scraper Extract product names, brands, prices, ratings, and article IDs from Thomann's full instrument catalog. Covers guitars, keys, drums, studio gear, live sound, DJ equipment, and more across dozens of subcategories. ### What you get Each record contains: | Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | `product_name` | Product model name (brand stripped) | | `brand` | Manufacturer name | | `category` | Top-level category slug (e.g. `guitars_and_basses`) | | `subcategory` | Leaf subcategory slug (e.g. `electric_guitars`) | | `price` | Numeric price in the server's locale currency | | `currency` | Currency symbol (€, $, £, etc.) | | `availability` | Availability status (null on listing pages) | | `rating` | Average rating on a 0–5 scale | | `review_count` | Number of customer reviews | | `thomann_article_id` | Thomann's internal article ID | | `product_url` | Full URL to the product detail page | | `image_url` | Product image URL (WebP preferred) | | `scraped_at` | ISO 8601 timestamp | ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `categories` | string[] | Thomann category slugs to crawl. Leave empty to crawl all 9 default categories. | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum total records to return. | #### Category slugs ```` guitars\_and\_basses, keys, drums\_and\_percussion, wind\_instruments, stringed\_instruments, studio\_and\_recording, live\_sound, dj\_equipment, guitar\_accessories ```` You can also use any Thomann subcategory slug visible in the URL (e.g. `electric_guitars`, `digital_pianos`). ### How it works The scraper navigates Thomann's `/intl/` locale (currency follows Apify cloud geo — typically USD or EUR): 1. **Category pages** — parsed for links to leaf subcategories 2. **Subcategory pages** — all products extracted from a single HTML response (Thomann does not paginate product listings) Thomann's Cloudflare protection is cleared automatically via residential proxy — no manual configuration required. ### Example output ```json { "product_name": "LP Standard Guitar", "brand": "Epiphone", "category": "guitars_and_basses", "subcategory": "electric_guitars", "price": 349, "currency": "$", "availability": null, "rating": 4.6, "review_count": 284, "thomann_article_id": "517832", "product_url": "https://www.thomann.de/intl/epiphone_lp_standard_60s.htm", "image_url": "https://thumbs.static-thomann.de/thumb/thumb248x248/pics/prod/517832.webp", "spec_summary": null, "scraped_at": "2026-05-21T09:33:35.584Z" } ```` ### Performance - A single category (e.g. `guitars_and_basses`) with ~60 subcategories returns 3,000–9,000 products - All 9 default categories return 30,000–80,000 products - Memory: 512 MB - Timeout: 4 hours (sufficient for a full catalog run) # 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. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of records to scrape ## `categories` (type: `array`): List of Thomann category slugs to scrape (e.g. guitars\_and\_basses, keys, drums\_and\_percussion). Leave empty to crawl all default categories. ## Actor input object example ```json { "sp_intended_usage": "Describe your intended use...", "sp_improvement_suggestions": "Share your suggestions here...", "sp_contact": "Share your email here...", "maxItems": 10 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "sp_intended_usage": "Describe your intended use...", "sp_improvement_suggestions": "Share your suggestions here...", "sp_contact": "Share your email here...", "maxItems": 10 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("jungle_synthesizer/thomann-product-catalog-price-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
