## 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

## Advance Auto Parts Scraper

Apify Actor that scrapes **shop.advanceautoparts.com** product pages and
extracts the full schema.org `Product` JSON-LD:

- product name, SKU, MPN, brand, description
- price, currency, availability, item condition
- aggregate rating and review count
- product images

### Input

```json
{
    "startUrls": [
        { "url": "https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/brexhaust-direct-fit-exhaust-system-kit-106-0062/50158752" }
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}
```

### Output (dataset item)

```json
{
    "site": "advance_auto_parts",
    "url": "https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/...",
    "product_name": "Direct-Fit Exhaust System Kit",
    "sku": "50158752",
    "brand": "BRExhaust",
    "price": "189.99",
    "currency": "USD",
    "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock",
    "rating": "4.5",
    "review_count": "12",
    "images": ["https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/..."]
}
```

# Actor input Schema

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

Product page URLs from shop.advanceautoparts.com (paths like /p/<slug>/<sku>).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Residential proxies are recommended if datacenter IPs get 403-blocked.

## `maxRetries` (type: `integer`):

Retries on transient failures (429/5xx) before giving up on a URL.

## `minDelaySecs` (type: `integer`):

Lower bound of the randomized politeness delay between page fetches, in seconds.

## `maxDelaySecs` (type: `integer`):

Upper bound of the randomized politeness delay between page fetches, in seconds.

## `includeRawJsonLd` (type: `boolean`):

Include the full schema.org JSON-LD blocks under raw\_json\_ld.

## `saveDebugSnapshots` (type: `boolean`):

When a page returns HTTP 200 but no product data can be extracted, save the raw HTML to the run's key-value store (DEBUG\_HTML\_\*) so you can inspect what the site actually served.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [

# 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 = {
    "startUrls": [
        {
            "url": "https://shop.advanceautoparts.com/p/brexhaust-direct-fit-exhaust-system-kit-106-0062/50158752"
        }
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("moving_beacon-owner1/advance-auto-parts-scraper").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);
});
