## 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/docs.md):

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

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

### How much does it cost to scrape Escrapalia?

This Actor uses **pay-per-event** pricing. You are charged for Actor start and for each lot saved to the dataset:

| Event | Free plan | Gold / Platinum / Diamond |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Actor start | $0.00005 | $0.00005 |
| Lot scraped | **$1.49 / 1,000** | **$0.99 / 1,000** |

The crawler uses lightweight HTTP requests (no browser, no proxy by default), so platform usage stays low. Keep `maxItems` at 3–5 for quick tests.

### Tips and advanced options

- To export an **entire event**, use its `/es/evento/{hash}` URL and raise `maxItems`.
- Category and homepage starts paginate **active lots** until `maxItems` is reached.
- Use a **single lot URL** to refresh bids and images for one item.
- Enable a proxy only if you observe blocking.

### FAQ, disclaimers, and support

- **Is scraping Escrapalia legal?** Scrape only publicly available data and comply with Escrapalia's Terms of Service and applicable laws. Do not collect personal or sensitive data without a lawful basis.
- **Bids change constantly.** Current bids, next bids, and auction status reflect the moment of scraping.
- **Feedback & issues** — Report problems or request features via the Issues tab. Custom scraping solutions are available on request.
