FAQ

Do I need a HelloFresh account? No. The Actor uses the public guest access the HelloFresh website gives every visitor.

Why do some keywords return nothing? HelloFresh's search matches the keyword as one phrase. Use one dish or ingredient per keyword (salmon, pasta, tacos).

Can I call it from code? Yes: Apify API, Python and JavaScript clients, Make, Zapier, n8n, or as an MCP tool.
