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 ## Heritage Auctions Scraper Scrape auction lots from **[Heritage Auctions (ha.com)](https://www.ha.com)** — the world's largest collectibles auctioneer. Pull live current-bid data and past-sale metadata across coins, sports cards, comics, currency, fine art, luxury handbags, historical items, and memorabilia. Great for building **price comps**, collectible-market datasets, arbitrage/valuation tools, and grading-value research. ### What it does - Searches Heritage Auctions by one or more keywords - Scrapes **live** lots (current bid amounts) and/or the **sold/archive** price history - Extracts title, price, sale date, grade, cert (PCGS / NGC / PSA / CGC / etc.), category, marketplace, lot & auction numbers, image, and lot URL - Paginates automatically up to your requested limit ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `searchQueries` | array | Keywords to search, each queried separately. e.g. `["morgan dollar", "mickey mantle", "amazing spider-man 1"]` | | `status` | select | `live` (current bids), `sold` (past-sale archive), or `both` | | `maxResults` | integer | Max lots per query (default 100; 48 lots per page) | | `proxyConfiguration` | proxy | Proxy settings — **RESIDENTIAL** is used by default and strongly recommended | #### Example input ```json { "searchQueries": ["morgan dollar", "1998 rolex daytona"], "status": "live", "maxResults": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` ### Output Each dataset item looks like: ```json { "query": "morgan dollar", "title": "2021-S $1 Morgan Dollar 100th Anniversary, MS69 NGC. (PCGS# 877712)", "url": "https://coins.ha.com/itm/modern-commemoratives/2021-s-1-morgan-dollar-100th-anniversary-ms69-ngc-pcgs-877712-/a/60551-54051.s", "image": "https://dyn1.heritagestatic.com/ha?p=3-4-6-3-2-34632541", "auctionNo": "60551", "lotNo": "54051", "saleDate": null, "currentBid": "$60", "soldPrice": null, "priceLabel": "Current Bid", "grade": "MS69", "certService": "PCGS", "certNo": "877712", "category": "modern commemoratives", "marketplace": "coins", "status": "live", "totalMatches": "2,419", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-02T23:59:00.000Z" } ``` For `status: "sold"`, records include `saleDate` and (where available) `soldPrice`. **Note:** Heritage requires a free account to reveal exact realized dollar amounts for archived lots; when gated, `soldPrice` is `null` and `priceLabel` is `"Sold For (login required)"`, but the title, sale date, grade, and cert are still captured. ### Notes on anti-bot Heritage Auctions is protected by **DataDome**. This Actor uses a real Chromium browser with a homepage session warmup and residential proxies to pass. Datacenter proxies will typically be blocked — keep the default RESIDENTIAL proxy setting. ### Categories covered Coins, currency, sports cards, comics & comic art, fine & illustration art, luxury accessories (handbags/watches), historical & political memorabilia, entertainment memorabilia, books & manuscripts, and more — anything searchable on ha.com. # Actor input Schema ## `searchQueries` (type: `array`): Keywords to search across Heritage Auctions (ha.com). Each is searched separately across all categories — coins, sports cards, comics, currency, art, luxury handbags, memorabilia, and more. Examples: 'morgan dollar', 'mickey mantle', 'amazing spider-man 1', 'rolex daytona'. ## `status` (type: `string`): Which lots to return. 'Live / Current Bids' scrapes open auction lots with current bid amounts (no login needed). 'Sold / Past Sales' scrapes the price-archive (title, sale date, grade, cert) — note Heritage requires a free account to reveal exact realized dollar amounts, so those show as 'login required'. 'Both' scrapes live first, then archive. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of lots to scrape per search query. Default 100. Higher values paginate through more result pages (48 lots per page). ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy settings. Heritage Auctions uses DataDome anti-bot protection, so RESIDENTIAL proxies are strongly recommended and used by default. Datacenter proxies will usually be blocked. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQueries": [ "morgan dollar" ], "status": "live", "maxResults": 100, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `dataset` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
