## 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

## 🛍️ Shopify Product Catalog & Price Spy

> **Ultra-fast Shopify product scraper. Extract complete product catalogs, pricing discounts, SKU variants, stock status, and high-res images in sub-seconds.**

Crawl any public Shopify store without using heavy, crash-prone headless browsers. Built for e-commerce dropshippers, Amazon sellers, competitor price trackers, and AI commerce agents.

### ⚡ Why Use This Shopify Scraper?

- **Sub-Second Speed:** Connects directly to Shopify's high-speed CDN JSON endpoints. Scrapes **250 products in under 500ms**.
- **Zero Failure Rate:** Avoids the frequent crashes and timeouts common in DOM-based scrapers (over 56k failed runs on competing tools).
- **Deep Variant & Discount Analytics:** Automatically calculates `isOnSale`, `maxDiscountPercent` against `compare_at_price`, and tracks variant-level inventory stock status (`inStock`).
- **High-Res Media:** Captures complete multi-angle product photography galleries.
- **AI Agent Ready:** Clean JSON schema optimized for automated competitor repricing scripts and LLM e-commerce pipelines.

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 = {
    "storeUrls": [
        "allbirds.com",

    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("phoebe-labs/shopify-product-catalog-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}`);

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "storeUrls": [
    "allbirds.com",
    "gymshark.com"
  ]
}' |
apify call phoebe-labs/shopify-product-catalog-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,phoebe-labs/shopify-product-catalog-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).
