## FAQ

### Why do I get ~180 products instead of 20?

Deep scan reads the keyword in its best-seller, price and shop-rating orders and in six price bands, then removes duplicates.

### How much does this cost?

$1.20 per 1,000 products on the Free plan, down to $0.90 on Business and higher plans; item details are an optional add-on ($1.80 to $1.20 per 1,000). No start fee, platform usage included.

### Do I need a Taobao account?

No. The Actor reads the catalogue pages Taobao shows to every visitor. You only need an Apify account.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/monkey.d.scraping/taobao-tmall-scraper.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
