Learn more: https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/running/actors-in-store#pay-per-event ## 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. 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 ## Tata 1mg Scraper Extract product and pricing data from **[Tata 1mg](https://www.1mg.com)** β€” India's largest online pharmacy. Search medicines, get full drug information, browse categories, and pull the lab test catalog. Download everything as **Excel, CSV, or JSON**. No coding needed. Type what you want, click Start, get a clean table. ### What you can collect - πŸ’Š **Medicines & OTC products** β€” name, price, MRP, discount, pack size, availability, rating, image - πŸ“‹ **Full drug details** β€” uses, benefits, side effects, how to use, salt composition, manufacturer, prescription status, and safety warnings (alcohol, pregnancy, breastfeeding) - πŸ—‚οΈ **Category listings** β€” browse whole categories like "vitamins & supplements" - πŸ§ͺ **Lab tests & health packages** β€” test name, number of tests included, price, lab, and category Prices are **city-aware** β€” 1mg prices change by location, so you pick the city. ### Popular uses - Track competitor and market medicine prices - Build a product catalog or price comparison - Monitor discounts and stock availability - Feed health/pharma data into research, apps, or AI assistants ### How to use 1. Open the actor and click **Try for free** / **Start**. 2. Enter one or more **search terms** (e.g. `paracetamol`, `vitamin d3`). 3. (Optional) Turn on **Full product details** for the deeper drug info. 4. Click **Start** and download your results as Excel, CSV, or JSON. That's it. Everything below is optional fine-tuning. ### Settings | Setting | What it does | |---|---| | **Search queries** | Medicine or product names to search for. | | **Expand keywords** | Also searches related suggestions for wider coverage. | | **Full product details** | Visits each product for the complete drug info (uses, side effects, salt, warnings). Slower but much richer. | | **Categories** | Category pages to pull (e.g. a "vitamins & supplements" page). | | **Start URLs** | Paste specific 1mg product or category links to scrape directly. | | **Scrape lab tests** | Collect the lab tests & health-checkup catalog. | | **Lab test filter** | Keep only lab tests whose name contains your words (e.g. "thyroid"). | | **City** | City used for pricing and availability. Default: Gurgaon. | | **Maximum items** | Limit total results (cost control). 0 = no limit. | | **Use proxy** | Off by default. Turn on only if you run very large jobs and hit limits. | ### What you get Every result includes a `price` and `mrp` (as numbers), `discount`, product `url`, the `city` used, and a timestamp. Empty fields are simply left out. **Medicine / product** | Field | Example | |---|---| | name | Dolo 650 Tablet | | type | drug / otc | | price | 29.2 | | mrp | 32.13 | | discount | 9% off | | label (pack) | 15 tablets | | available | true | | rating | 4.4 | | url | link to the product | | image | product image link | **Extra fields with "Full product details" on** | Field | Example | |---|---| | manufacturer | Micro Labs Limited | | salt_composition | Paracetamol | | dosage_form | Tablet | | prescription_status | over-the-counter | | administration_route | Oral Route | | uses | Pain relief, Treatment of Fever | | benefits | … | | side_effects | … | | how_to_use | … | | how_works | … | | alcohol_warning | It is unsafe to consume alcohol with… | | pregnancy_warning | … | | breastfeeding_warning | … | **Lab test** | Field | Example | |---|---| | name | Comprehensive Gold Full Body Checkup | | test_count | Contains 86 tests | | price / mrp | 2199 / 4998 | | discount | 56% off | | lab | Tata 1mg Labs | | category | Pathology | | url | link to the test | ### Real example output Actual records produced by the actor (real data from 1mg). **Medicine β€” search result** ```json { "id": "74467", "name": "Dolo 650 Tablet", "type": "drug", "url": "https://www.1mg.com/drugs/dolo-650-tablet-74467", "label": "15 tablets", "available": true, "price": 29.2, "mrp": 32.13, "discount": "9% off", "rating": null, "image": "https://onemg.gumlet.io/l_watermark_346,w_380,h_380/.../mu5bahqxfrp28cut6que.jpg", "source": "search", "city": "Gurgaon", "scraped_at": "2026-07-03T16:50:41.754957+00:00" } ```` **Medicine β€” with "Full product details" on** ```json { "id": "74467", "name": "Dolo 650 Tablet", "type": "drug", "url": "https://www.1mg.com/drugs/dolo-650-tablet-74467", "label": "15 tablets", "available": true, "price": 29.2, "mrp": 32.13, "discount": "9% off", "rating": null, "image": "https://onemg.gumlet.io/l_watermark_346,w_380,h_380/.../mu5bahqxfrp28cut6que.jpg", "source": "product_page", "cp_price": 28.03, "discount_percent": 9, "manufacturer": "A)MICRO LABS LIMITED", "salt_composition": "Paracetamol", "dosage_form": "Tablet", "prescription_status": "over-the-counter", "administration_route": "Oral Route", "available_generically": true, "alcohol_warning": "It is unsafe to consume alcohol with Dolo 650 Tablet", "pregnancy_warning": "Dolo 650 Tablet is safe to use during pregnancy.

Add Apify to your assistant once and it can run this scraper for you on request: ```json { "mcpServers": { "apify": { "url": "https://mcp.apify.com", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" } } } } ``` ### Good to know - You must enter at least one **search query**, **category**, **start URL**, or turn on **Scrape lab tests** β€” otherwise there's nothing to collect and the run ends right away. - Wrong or dead links are skipped automatically (no blank rows). - Lab tests cover the main catalog (popular checkups and packages). Searching lab tests by any keyword and pulling individual test breakdowns aren't available yet. ### Disclaimer This actor collects publicly available information from 1mg.com for legitimate uses such as price comparison and research. You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with 1mg's terms and applicable laws. # Actor input Schema ## `searchQueries` (type: `array`): Medicine / product names or keywords to search on 1mg, e.g. "paracetamol", "vitamin d3", "dolo 650". Each query is paginated to exhaustion. ## `expandKeywords` (type: `boolean`): For each query, also pull 1mg autocomplete suggestions and search those too. Casts a wider net for maximum coverage. ## `enrichProduct` (type: `boolean`): Visit each product page for full detail (uses, benefits, side effects, how it works, safety advice, manufacturer, prescription flag). One extra request per product β€” slower. ## `categories` (type: `array`): Category pages to scrape, e.g. "vitamins-supplements-27" or a full https://www.1mg.com/categories/... URL. ~20 server-rendered products per category (use searchQueries for deeper coverage). ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Direct 1mg product or category URLs to scrape (e.g. https://www.1mg.com/drugs/dolo-650-tablet-74467). ## `scrapeLabs` (type: `boolean`): Scrape the 1mg lab tests / diagnostics catalog (popular checkups, packages, lifestyle bundles) with pricing, lab name and ETA β€” from the labs\_home API. City-aware. ## `labTests` (type: `array`): Optional: only keep lab tests whose name contains one of these substrings (e.g. "thyroid", "full body"). Applied to the labs catalog. Leave empty to get the whole catalog when 'Scrape lab tests' is on. (Arbitrary keyword lab search has no public API yet.) ## `city` (type: `string`): City for pricing/availability (sent as the X-City header). Prices vary by city. E.g. "Gurgaon", "Mumbai", "New Delhi". ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Hard cap on total items scraped (cost control). 0 = no cap. ## `useProxy` (type: `boolean`): Route requests through Apify residential proxy with rotating IP + JA3 fingerprint. Off by default (1mg does not block direct requests); enable only if you hit rate limits at scale. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Apify proxy settings (used only when 'Use residential proxy' is on). ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQueries": [ "paracetamol" ], "expandKeywords": false, "enrichProduct": false, "scrapeLabs": false, "city": "Gurgaon", "maxItems": 20, "useProxy": false, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
