🔬 dbSNP Esummary Scraper
🚀 Export NCBI dbSNP data in seconds. Structured records ready for spreadsheet, database, and BI tooling.
The dbSNP Esummary Scraper turns the public NCBI dbSNP endpoint into a clean, structured dataset. It calls the upstream API, parses the response, and flattens each record into one row, ready for downstream tooling.
| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| 📊 Analysts and researchers | Build clean datasets from public NCBI dbSNP data. |
| 🏢 Operations teams | Monitor key indicators on a schedule. |
| 🤖 ML engineers | Construct training and evaluation sets. |
| 📰 Journalists | Verify figures and pull sources with one click. |
| 👩💻 Developers | Mirror upstream data into your warehouse without writing client code. |
📋 What the dbSNP Esummary Scraper does
- Calls the public NCBI dbSNP endpoint with the filters you supply.
- Parses the response and normalizes each record.
- Casts numeric fields where possible so the data drops cleanly into BI tools.
- Surfaces upstream errors and rate limits as a single record with the
errorfield set. - Exports to any downstream format supported by Apify.
💡 Why it matters. Public data is great, but raw API responses rarely map cleanly to a spreadsheet. This actor handles the plumbing so you can focus on analysis.
📊 Data fields
Each record includes: alleles, chr, function, gene, maf, organism, position, results, scrapedAt, snp_class, snp_id, validated. These field names come straight from the actor's dataset schema, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
⚠️ Good to Know. This actor talks to the public NCBI dbSNP endpoint. Upstream rate limits and availability apply.
🚀 How to use
- Click Try for free.
- Adjust the filters or leave defaults.
- Click Start. Within seconds, your dataset is ready.
