## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

### 🛍️ Joom Listings Scraper

Easily extract product listings from Joom. The **Joom Listings Scraper** lets you collect structured product data from joom.com category pages and product detail pages — names, prices, images, variants, ratings, sellers, and category breadcrumbs — for price tracking, competitive analysis, and product research.

### ✨ Features

- 🏷️ **Comprehensive Product Data**: Retrieve product id, name (localized + English), price, discount, gallery images, ratings, review counts, variants, seller info, and category path.
- 🌍 **25 Languages Supported**: Scrape localized product names and descriptions in English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Italian, Czech, Russian-Ukraine, and 17 more.
- ⚡ **Two-Mode Operation**: Fast listing mode for bulk card data, or detail mode that calls Joom's internal API directly (~80× bandwidth reduction vs. re-rendering SSR pages).
- 🛡️ **Built-in Anti-Bot Handling**: SHA3-256 PoW challenge solver, SSR `window.__data` parsing, and automatic session rotation when Joom serves the SPA shell.
- 🔌 **Flexible Input**: Use category slugs (`shoes`, `womens-fashion`), category IDs, or direct Joom URLs.

### 🛠️ How It Works

1. **Pick categories or URLs** – Enter Joom category slugs (e.g. `shoes`), category IDs, or paste full Joom URLs.
2. **Choose your mode** – Leave `includeProductDetail` off for fast card-level data, or turn it on for full product detail via Joom's internal API.
3. **Run the scraper** – Start the run; results stream into the dataset as products are processed.

### 📥 Input

Provide a JSON input with the fields below. Most fields have sensible defaults — only `categorySlugs`, `categoryIds`, or `startUrls` is required to point the scraper at something.

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `startUrls` | array | `[]` | Joom URLs to scrape — category listings (`https://www.joom.com/{lang}/category/{slug}`) or product detail pages (`https://www.joom.com/{lang}/products/{id}`). |
| `categorySlugs` | string[] | `[]` | Joom category slugs to scrape, e.g. `"shoes"`, `"womens-fashion"`, `"beauty-health"`. |
| `categoryIds` | string[] | `[]` | Joom category IDs from the categoryGraph, e.g. `"1597236200138726397-237-2-2-990526431"`. |
| `language` | string | `"en"` | Language code controlling URL path and localized product names. One of 25 codes (`en`, `de`, `fr`, `es`, `pl`, `it`, `cs`, `ru-ua`, …). |
| `includeProductDetail` | boolean | `false` | If `true`, fetch full product detail (description, variants, attributes, breadcrumbs, seller info) for every card via Joom's internal API. Changes the billing event (see Pricing). |
| `maxImagesPerProduct` | integer | `10` | Maximum gallery image URLs per product item (1–50). |
| `maxItems` | integer | `1000` | Hard cap on the number of product items pushed to the dataset (`0` = unlimited). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify residential | Proxy settings. **Residential proxy is strongly recommended** — datacenter IPs trigger the SHA3 PoW challenge almost immediately. |

#### Example input

```json
{
    "categorySlugs": ["shoes"],
    "language": "en",
    "includeProductDetail": false,
    "maxItems": 100,
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true,
        "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]
    }
}
````

### 📊 Sample Output Data

The scraper provides structured JSON output. Example item from a category listing:

```json
[
    {
        "id": "69d8db5b7a86840109a3355b",
        "storeId": "69b9e4617b6051cfd1671fca",
        "name": "Men's Lightweight Running Shoes",
        "nameEn": "Men's Lightweight Running Shoes",
        "permalink": "https://www.joom.com/en/products/69d8db5b7a86840109a3355b",
        "price": { "amount": 23.99, "currency": "EUR" },
        "originalPrice": { "amount": 39.99, "currency": "EUR" },
        "discountPercent": 40,
        "inStock": true,
        "rating": 4.5,
        "reviewsCount": 312,
        "isSponsored": false,
        "mainImage": "https://img.joomcdn.net/a_800_800.jpeg",
        "images": [
            "https://img.joomcdn.net/a_800_800.jpeg",
            "https://img.joomcdn.net/b_800_800.jpeg"
        ],
        "store": { "id": "69b9e4617b6051cfd1671fca", "name": "Acme Footwear" },
        "categoryPath": [{ "id": "shoes", "slug": "shoes", "name": "Shoes" }]
    }
]
```

When `includeProductDetail` is `true`, items also include `description`, `descriptionEn`, `variants[]`, `attributes`, `shippingDays`, and richer `store` info (rating, verified, location).

You can download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML, or XML directly from the Apify Console.

### 💰 Pricing

This Actor uses **Pay-Per-Event** billing. You're charged only for items that are successfully pushed to the dataset — failed requests, retries, and skipped items are free.

| Event | Triggered when | Price (USD) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `product-listing` | One product card is pushed with `includeProductDetail: false` (listing-only mode). | **$0.001 / item** |
| `item-detail` | One enriched product is pushed with `includeProductDetail: true` (description, variants, attributes, seller info). | **$0.005 / item** |

#### Cost examples

| Items | Listing mode | Detail mode |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 100 | $0.10 | $0.50 |
| 1,000 | $1.00 | $5.00 |
| 10,000 | $10.00 | $50.00 |

Apify platform charges (compute units, proxy traffic) are **not** added on top — PPE pricing covers the full cost.

### 💡 Tips

- **Start with listing mode** to validate categories and language before switching on detail mode.
- **Use residential proxy** — Joom aggressively rate-limits datacenter IPs and forces a SHA3-256 proof-of-work challenge that costs compute and time.
- **Cap with `maxItems`** during testing to avoid surprise charges from a large category.

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Joom URLs to scrape — category listings (https://www.joom.com/{lang}/category/{slug}) or product detail pages (https://www.joom.com/{lang}/products/{id}). Leave empty to use categorySlugs / categoryIds instead.

## `categorySlugs` (type: `array`):

List of Joom category slugs to scrape, e.g. "shoes", "womens-fashion", "beauty-health". Each slug becomes https://www.joom.com/{language}/category/{slug}.

## `categoryIds` (type: `array`):

List of Joom category IDs (from categoryGraph), e.g. "1597236200138726397-237-2-2-990526431". Each ID becomes https://www.joom.com/{language}/category/{id}.

## `language` (type: `string`):

Language code in the URL path. Controls localised product names and descriptions.

## `includeProductDetail` (type: `boolean`):

For each product card found in a category listing, fetch the product detail (description, variants, attributes, breadcrumbs, seller info) via Joom's internal API. Changes the billing event to item-detail.

## `maxImagesPerProduct` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of gallery image URLs included per product item.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Hard cap on the number of product items pushed to the dataset (0 = unlimited).

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy settings. Residential proxy is strongly recommended — datacenter IPs are rate-limited and quickly forced into the SHA3 PoW challenge.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.joom.com/en/category/shoes"
    }
