## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

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 examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

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`).

# README

![Clas Ohlson Sweden Scraper - Clas Ohlson Sweden scraper showing price, discount and rating](https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/kE36venAoVchGsE6b/records/clas-ohlson-scraper--hero.png)

### What does Clas Ohlson Sweden Scraper do?

Clas Ohlson Sweden Scraper reads Clas Ohlson's own on-sale, new-arrival or bestseller product feed and returns, for each product, the article code, brand, name, current price in SEK, original price when discounted, a discount flag, stock status, customer rating, review count and image URL. Choose which feed to read and it paginates automatically up to the limit you set.

### Why use Clas Ohlson Sweden Scraper?

- Covers Clas Ohlson, a major Nordic hardware/electronics chain not covered by most product-data tools.
- Three ready-made feeds - on sale, new arrivals, bestsellers - no category hunting needed.
- Returns both current and original price, with a ready-made discount flag.
- Includes customer rating and review count per product.
- No account or API key.

### What makes this different

Most hardware/electronics scrapers need a specific category URL per run. This Actor reads Clas Ohlson's own curated feeds (deals, new arrivals, bestsellers) directly, so you get the most commercially relevant products without picking categories yourself.

### Who can use the Clas Ohlson Scraper and how?

- **Deal and coupon sites:** Source currently discounted Clas Ohlson items for a Swedish audience.
- **Price trackers:** Monitor Clas Ohlson's on-sale feed for price-drop alerts.
- **Trend watchers:** Track new arrivals and bestsellers to spot what's gaining traction.
- **Market researchers:** Study pricing and discount patterns at a major Nordic retailer.

### How it works

1. **Your input** — choose a feed (on sale, new arrivals or bestsellers) and a max results count
2. **The Actor collects it** — the Actor calls Clas Ohlson's own feed API and paginates automatically
3. **Your output** — you get one row per product, with price, discount, stock and rating

### What data can you extract?

The dataset has 12 fields per row:

| Field | Type | Description |

A real dataset item:

```json
{
  "code": "10-3-33",
  "name": "Philips OneBlade Intimate intim trimmer QP1930/22",
  "brand": "PHILIPS",
  "url": "https://www.clasohlson.com/se/Philips-OneBlade-Intimate-intim-trimmer-QP1930-22/p/10-3-33",
  "priceSek": 299,
  "oldPriceSek": 399,
  "onSale": true,
  "inStock": true,
  "category": "Rakhyvlar",
  "ratingValue": 5,
  "reviewCount": 1,
  "imageUrl": "https://www.clasohlson.com/medias/sys_master/he0/he4/68913218027550.jpg"
}
```

### Usage Examples

#### Scrape the on-sale feed

```json
{
  "feed": "onSale",
  "maxItems": 30
}
```

#### Scrape bestsellers

```json
{
  "feed": "bestseller",
  "maxItems": 50
}
```

### Tips for Best Results

- Use the On sale feed on a schedule to catch new markdowns as they appear.
- Compare oldPriceSek and priceSek over successive runs to track discount depth over time.
- Default is 5 results for a fast test. Set the max to 0 to return everything available.

### Known Limitations

- Only the three curated feeds are supported, not arbitrary category or search URLs.
- Full technical specs are on the product page itself and are not included in this listing-level data.

### Integrations

Run it from the Apify API, on a schedule, or from a webhook. Send results straight to Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, Slack or your own database with Apify's built-in integrations.

### Export Formats

Download the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table or RSS from the **Output** tab or the API.

### Frequently Asked Questions

#### Does it need a Clas Ohlson account?

No. The Actor reads Clas Ohlson's public feed API and needs no account or key.

#### Can I target a specific category instead of a feed?

This Actor reads the three curated feeds (on sale, new arrivals, bestsellers); it doesn't target an arbitrary category URL.

#### How many products are in each feed?

It varies by feed and changes daily; the Actor paginates through as many as are available, up to your Max results.

#### Do I need an account or login?

No. The Actor reads public data and needs no account or key.

#### Am I charged for failed runs or empty results?

You are only charged for results that are actually written to the dataset.

#### Can I run it on a schedule?

Yes. Create a Task with your input and add a schedule in Apify Console. With monitor mode on, each scheduled run returns only what changed since the previous one.

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,mrdoe/clas-ohlson-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
