## 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.

# README

## Madison Avenue Couture Scraper — Hermès & Chanel Ultra-Luxury Handbags

Scrape [Madison Avenue Couture](https://madisonavenuecouture.com), one of the world's leading resellers of ultra-luxury Hermès and Chanel handbags (Birkin, Kelly, Constance, Classic Flap, Boy Bag, and more). Get structured listing data with parsed luxury attributes: brand, model, color, material, hardware finish, and condition.

### What you get

Each listing record includes:

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `title` | Full listing title, e.g. "Hermes Birkin 25 Black Togo Brushed Palladium Hardware" |
| `brand` | Brand (Hermès, Chanel, Goyard, ...) |
| `model` | Parsed model name (Birkin, Kelly, Constance, Classic Flap, Boy Bag, ...) |
| `color` | Color, e.g. "Black", "Bleu Royal", "Khaki Green" |
| `material` | Leather/material, e.g. "Togo", "Caviar", "Epsom", "Suede" |
| `hardware` | Hardware finish, e.g. "Gold", "Brushed Palladium", "Ruthenium" |
| `condition` | Condition grade, e.g. "New", "Pristine", "Excellent" |
| `conditionDetail` | Full condition note from the listing description |
| `price` / `compareAtPrice` / `currency` | Asking price in USD |
| `available` / `availability` | In stock vs. sold |
| `sku` | Internal SKU |
| `collectionStamp` | Season/collection stamp, e.g. "26B (RFID)", "Z stamp" |
| `origin`, `accompaniedBy`, `measurements` | Provenance and completeness details |
| `image`, `url`, `handle`, `listingId` | Media and links |
| `publishedAt`, `updatedAt`, `scrapedAt` | Timestamps |

### Input

```json
{
    "searchQueries": ["hermes", "chanel bags", "birkin 25"],
    "maxListings": 100,
    "minPrice": 5000,
    "maxPrice": 50000,
    "onlyAvailable": true
}
```

- **searchQueries** — brand or collection names (`hermes`, `chanel bags`, `goyard bags`) crawl the full paginated collection; model keywords (`birkin 25`, `kelly pochette`) use on-site search; `all` scrapes the entire store catalog.
- **maxListings** — cap per query (0 = up to 1000).
- **minPrice / maxPrice** — USD price filter.
- **onlyAvailable** — skip sold listings.

### Example output

```json
{
    "title": "Chanel Maxi \"Souplissimo\" Small Flap Bag Khaki Suede Gold Hardware",
    "brand": "Chanel",
    "model": "Souplissimo",
    "color": "Khaki Green",
    "material": "Suede",
    "hardware": "Gold",
    "condition": "New",
    "conditionDetail": "New and never worn (plastic on CC turnlock)",
    "price": 15500,
    "currency": "USD",
    "availability": "In Stock",
    "sku": "C-FN-260729-10",
    "collectionStamp": "26B (RFID)",
    "origin": "Italy",
    "url": "https://madisonavenuecouture.com/products/chanel-maxi-souplissimo-small-flap-bag-khaki-suede-gold-hardware"
}
```

### Use cases

- **Resale price research** — track Birkin/Kelly asking prices by size, leather, and hardware.
- **Luxury market analytics** — monitor inventory turnover and sold-vs-available rates.
- **Arbitrage & sourcing** — compare against auction results and other resellers.
- **Collection tracking** — alert on new arrivals of specific models/colors.

### Notes

- Data comes from the site's public Shopify JSON API — fast, reliable, no browser needed.
- Prices are asking prices in USD set by Madison Avenue Couture.
- This actor is for market research. Respect the site's terms of service.

## `searchQueries` (type: `array`):

Brands, collections, or keywords to scrape from Madison Avenue Couture (e.g. 'hermes', 'chanel bags', 'goyard bags', 'birkin 25'). Brand/collection names use the full collection catalog (paginated). Other keywords fall back to on-site search. Use 'all' to scrape the entire store catalog.

## `maxListings` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of listings to scrape per query. Set to 0 for as many as available (up to 1000).

## `minPrice` (type: `integer`):

## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`):

Only include listings priced at or below this amount (USD).

## `onlyAvailable` (type: `boolean`):

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).
