## 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.

### Wish Products Scraper

**Scrape Wish products from any search, category, or product URL, up to 100 per run.** Every product comes with its title, price, rating, and full listing details. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Wish has no official public API for product data, and building a scraper yourself means handling anti-bot measures and pagination. This reads the public product feeds directly from search results and category pages, and returns each match in one fixed schema.

| Who uses it | What they scrape Wish for |
|---|---|
| E-commerce analysts | Track which products are trending on Wish this week |
| Dropshippers | Find winning products to add to their own store |
| Price monitoring tools | Watch competitor pricing on Wish listings |
| Market researchers | Understand what budget-conscious shoppers are buying |

### What it does

This Actor collects Wish product listings by search query, category page, or direct URL, and returns each one as a flat row.

- 🔍 **Search and category scraping:** feed it any Wish search URL or category page and it follows the pagination for you.
- 📄 **Flat product rows:** every listing comes back as one row with title, price, rating, and other fields from the page.
- ⚙️ **Max items control:** set a hard limit on how many products to scrape per run, so you never overshoot your budget.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

### What you can do with Wish data

**📈 Track trending products.**

An e-commerce analyst runs the Actor on a Wish search URL for a niche like phone accessories, then exports the results to spot which items are gaining traction.

**🛒 Find dropshipping winners.**

A dropshipper scrapes a Wish category page for home gadgets, filters by rating and price, and picks products to test in their own store.

**💰 Monitor competitor pricing.**

A price monitoring tool runs the Actor daily on a set of Wish product URLs and compares the returned prices against its own catalog.

**📊 Research budget markets.**

A market researcher scrapes Wish search results for a product keyword to understand what features and price points dominate the budget segment.

### Why choose this scraper

| | What you get |
|---|---|
| **No API needed** | Wish does not offer a public product API, so this scrapes the live pages directly. |
| **Fixed schema** | Every product comes back in the same flat structure, ready for your database or spreadsheet. |
| **Simple to run** | Paste a URL, set a limit, and start. No code or proxies to manage. |

### How it compares

No other Store actor targets Wish the same way, so the honest comparison is with the alternatives teams actually weigh.

| | Wish Products Scraper | Build it in-house | By hand |
|---|---|---|---|
| Setup | Run it now, zero config | Days of engineering | None, but hours per pull |
| When Wish changes | Maintained for you | You fix it | You re-learn the page |
| Proxies, retries, anti-bot | Built in | Your problem | Browser only |
| Output | Fixed JSON schema, CSV/Excel export | Whatever you build | Copy-paste |
| Cost | Pay per result | Engineering time | Analyst hours |

### Configure the run

Drive the Actor from search result URLs, category pages, or direct product URLs, and set a maximum number of items to scrape. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

```json
{
 "startUrls": [
 {
 "url": "https://www.wish.com/search/phone"
 }
 ]
}
```

A larger pull:

```json
{
 "startUrls": [
 {
 "url": "https://www.wish.com/search/phone"
 }
 ],
 "maxItems": 200
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-result: **$0.0081 per result** collected. You pay only for the results written to your dataset.

| Results collected | Approximate cost |
|---|---|
| 100 results | $0.81 |
| 1,000 results | $8.10 |
| 10,000 results | $81.00 |

New Apify accounts start with $5 in free credit.

### Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. [Upgrade your Apify plan](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp) to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

### Run it

1. [Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp).
2. Open the [Wish Products Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/wish-scraper?fpr=vmoqkp).
3. Set your inputs and any filters, then click **Start**.
4. Export the results as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML from the **Dataset** tab.

Run it programmatically through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) (`run-sync-get-dataset-items`) or the [ApifyClient](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js) for JavaScript and Python.

### Use with AI agents (MCP)

Give an AI agent live access to Wish through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=parseforge/wish-scraper"
```

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.

### Troubleshooting

**Why am I getting no results?**

Check that the Start URL is a valid Wish search, category, or product page. Also make sure the Max items value is greater than zero. If the URL is correct, Wish may be blocking the request; try again later or use a different IP via Apify proxy.

**Why are some product fields empty?**

Wish sometimes shows different layouts for different products or regions. Empty fields usually mean that particular data was not present on the page for that product. Try scraping a different URL or check the sample output to see which fields are typically populated.

**Why did the run stop before reaching my max items?**

The Actor stops when it has scraped all available products from the provided URLs, even if that number is less than your max items. If you expected more results, try a broader search term or a different category URL.

**Why am I getting a timeout or error?**

Wish may be rate-limiting your requests. Reduce the number of items or add a delay between requests. You can also try running the Actor at a different time of day.

### FAQ

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can I scrape Wish search results? | Yes. Paste any Wish search URL, like https://www.wish.com/search/phone, into the Start URLs field and the Actor will scrape the listings from that search. |
| Can I scrape a Wish category page? | Yes. Any Wish category URL works the same way as a search URL. The Actor will follow the pagination and collect products from all pages up to your max items limit. |
| Can I scrape a single Wish product page? | Yes. If you paste a direct product URL, the Actor will return that product as a single row in the dataset. |
| What data do I get for each product? | Each product row includes the title, price, rating, and other listing details that appear on the Wish page. The exact fields are shown in the sample output below. |
| Is there a limit on how many products I can scrape? | You set the limit yourself with the Max items field. The default is 100, but you can raise or lower it depending on your needs and your Apify plan. |
| Do I need a Wish account or API key? | No. The Actor scrapes the public pages directly, so no login or API key is required. |
| Can I export the data to Excel or CSV? | Yes. After the run finishes, you can export the dataset to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML from the Apify platform. |
| Does this Actor handle pagination? | Yes. When you provide a search or category URL, the Actor automatically follows the pagination links until it reaches your max items limit or the end of the results. |
| Can I schedule this Actor to run regularly? | Yes. You can set up a schedule in Apify to run the Actor daily, weekly, or at any interval you need, and get fresh product data automatically. |
| What if Wish changes their page layout? | The Actor is maintained to keep up with Wish's page structure. If you notice missing fields, you can report it and we will update the scraper. |
