## 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.

### Pay-Per-Event Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. Event prices include Apify platform usage; users are not expected to pay a separate platform-usage pass-through charge for the configured pricing model.

- Tier: W1 — Web/domain audit
- Primary event: `page-audited` at $0.00490 base
- Default max charge: $10.00
- Store discounts: FREE/BRONZE base, SILVER discounted, GOLD deepest approved discount

Event set:

- `actor-start`: base $0.00500, GOLD $0.00400. Product Faq Extractor: charged when actor start is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `page-audited`: base $0.00490, GOLD $0.00392. Product Faq Extractor: charged when page audited is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `record-extracted`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. Product Faq Extractor: charged when record extracted is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `finding-emitted`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. Product Faq Extractor: charged when finding emitted is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `audit-report-generated`: base $0.05000, GOLD $0.04000. Product Faq Extractor: charged when audit report generated is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.

The actor accepts `actor-start` before work, accepts the primary event before each dataset row, and accepts the configured report event before writing report files. If `maxChargeUsd` or the live PPE limit blocks a charge, the corresponding row or report is not written.

### Public Task Concepts

- Audit Product FAQ controls on a capped public sample
- Find high-priority Product FAQ issues before release
- Validate Product FAQ evidence from supplied pages
- Prioritize Product FAQ fixes with severity and proof
- Export Product FAQ QA rows for client review
  Extract paired product FAQ questions and answers from schema and visible page content.

### Inputs

- `includeJsonLd`
- `includeAccordionSections`
- `deduplicateQuestions`
- `productNameSelectors`
- `skuSelectors`
- `minQuestionLength`
- `includeEvidence`
- `timeoutMs`

The exact default extracts public JSON-LD FAQ content from Apple's iPhone 16 product page, verified at 2026-07-12T06:00:00Z.

# Actor input Schema

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

Public pages to fetch and analyze. Keep first runs small and use allowed domains to constrain crawling.

Optional supplied HTML pages to analyze without fetching live URLs. Use this for saved-page analysis or controlled QA.

## `allowedDomains` (type: `array`):

Optional domain allowlist that keeps fetched URLs constrained to approved hosts.

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum pages to process in one run; keep defaults low for safe first runs.

## `includeJsonLd` (type: `boolean`):

Include JSON ld in output rows or reports when available.

## `includeAccordionSections` (type: `boolean`):

Include accordion sections in output rows or reports when available.

## `deduplicateQuestions` (type: `boolean`):

Deduplicate Questions controls Product FAQ Extractor processing for the supplied inputs; keep values conservative for first runs.

## `productNameSelectors` (type: `array`):

Selectors used to locate product name in supplied or fetched HTML.

## `skuSelectors` (type: `array`):

Selectors used to locate sku in supplied or fetched HTML.

## `minQuestionLength` (type: `integer`):

Min Question Length controls Product FAQ Extractor processing for the supplied inputs; keep values conservative for first runs.

## `includeEvidence` (type: `boolean`):

Include evidence in output rows or reports when available.

## `timeoutMs` (type: `integer`):

Maximum time in milliseconds allowed for the Product FAQ Extractor operation before it is treated as timed out.

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("junipr/product-faq-extractor").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);
});

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call junipr/product-faq-extractor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,junipr/product-faq-extractor"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
