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 ## Ulta Scraper - Ulta Beauty products, prices, ratings, and availability Ulta Scraper collects Ulta Beauty product data from a search term or category page. Each row is one product with id, sku, brand, title, priceAmount, priceCurrency, list and sale prices, rating, reviewCount, availability, badge, promo text, imageUrl, and url. Use it to track prices, monitor stock and assortment changes, or build product and market research datasets. In monitor mode it compares each run with the previous run for the same input and reports only new, changed, and removed products. ### Who uses it - Beauty brands and ecommerce managers tracking competitor prices, promotions, ratings, and assortment on Ulta. - Retail and pricing analysts building recurring price and stock monitoring feeds for Ulta Beauty categories. - Catalog and research teams collecting product metadata, review counts, and availability for analysis. ### What you get 5 real rows captured from Ulta Beauty on 2026-11-16 (category: foundation): | id | brand | title | priceAmount | rating | reviewCount | availability | url | |---|---|---|---:|---:|---:|---|---| | pimprod2057355 | Estée Lauder | Double Wear Stay-in-Place Longwear Matte Foundation | 52.00 | 4.2 | 10297 | | https://www.ulta.com/p/double-wear-stay-in-place-longwear-matte-foundation-pimprod2057355?sku=2651970 | | pimprod2051406 | MAC | Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation | 39.00 | 3.8 | 3525 | | https://www.ulta.com/p/studio-fix-powder-plus-foundation-pimprod2051406?sku=2635749 | | pimprod2049570 | Lancôme | Teint Idole Ultra Wear 24H Full Coverage Foundation | 53.00 | 4.3 | 7390 | | https://www.ulta.com/p/teint-idole-ultra-wear-24h-full-coverage-foundation-pimprod2049570?sku=2632372 | | xlsimpprod5770257 | IT Cosmetics | CC+ Cream with SPF 50+ | 39.00 | 4.3 | 22056 | | https://www.ulta.com/p/cc-cream-with-spf-50-xlsimpprod5770257?sku=2264064 | | pimprod2058179 | NARS | Light Reflecting Advanced Skincare Foundation | 52.00 | 4.4 | 3011 | | https://www.ulta.com/p/light-reflecting-advanced-skincare-foundation-pimprod2058179?sku=2649511 | Discovery rows also include sku, priceCurrency, listPriceAmount, salePriceAmount, badge, promoText, imageUrl, variantLabel, sourceType, and scrapedAt. Product detail rows can include description, gtin12, color, breadcrumbs, categoryPath, imageUrls, ingredients, attributes, and sampleReviews when available on the product page. ### Modes | Mode | What it does | Output | |---|---|---| | `discovery` | Collects products from a search term or category path/URL. | One row per product found on the page. | | `detail` | Fetches a single product page. | One row with full product details parsed from the page. | | `monitor` | Runs discovery and compares with the previous run for the same input. | Rows with `changeType` set to `new`, `changed`, or `removed`, plus a STATUS summary. | ### Price This Actor charges $1.40 per 1,000 products, with no start fee. In `discovery` and `detail` modes each returned product is charged as a result. In `monitor` mode only new or changed products are charged; unchanged and removed items are free. For example, collecting 500 products in discovery mode costs $0.70. ### How to run it - Search for products: set `query` to `mascara` with `mode` = `discovery`. Ulta shows search results only in the browser, so a product type or brand opens the category or brand page Ulta's own menu links (`mascara` reads `/shop/makeup/eyes/mascara`). - Collect a category: set `query` to `/shop/makeup/face/foundation` with `mode` = `discovery`. - Track changes: set `query` to `/shop/skin-care/moisturizers/face-moisturizer` with `mode` = `monitor` and schedule the run. ### Input | Field | Default | What it does | |---|---|---| | `query` | `mascara` | Product type or brand (opens the matching Ulta category or brand page), category path (for example `/shop/makeup/face/foundation`), brand page (`/brand/tarte`), or full Ulta product or category URL. | | `mode` | `discovery` | `discovery` to list products, `detail` to fetch one product page, `monitor` to report new/changed/removed products since the previous run. | | `maxItems` | `50` | Maximum number of products to return. | | `proxy` | Apify Proxy enabled | Proxy settings. Use a residential proxy if Ulta blocks requests from your run environment. | ### Output fields - `id`: Ulta product identifier (for example `pimprod2057355`). - `sku`: SKU shown on the card or product page. - `brand`: Product brand. - `title`: Product name. - `variantLabel`: Variant label from the listing card when present. - `priceAmount`, `priceCurrency`: Current price as a number and ISO 4217 currency code. - `listPriceAmount`, `salePriceAmount`: List and sale prices when available. - `rating`, `reviewCount`: Average rating and number of reviews. - `availability`: Availability value when known (for example `InStock` or `LimitedAvailability`). - `badge`, `promoText`: Badge and promotion text from the listing. - `imageUrl`, `imageUrls`: Product image URL(s). - `url`: Canonical product URL. - `description`, `gtin12`, `color`: Detail fields from the product page. - `breadcrumbs`, `categoryPath`: Category breadcrumb values. - `ingredients`, `attributes`: Ingredients and other product attributes from detail pages. - `sampleReviews`: Sample reviews included on the product page. - `changeType`: In monitor mode, `new`, `changed`, or `removed`. - `sourceType`, `scrapedAt`: Source and capture timestamp. Run status and summary are stored in the key-value store record `STATUS`. ### FAQ **Can I get data from the Ulta API?**\ This Actor reads public product information from Ulta web pages. It does not use a private or authenticated API. **Does it return contact or personal data?**\ No. It returns product catalog data such as titles, prices, ratings, availability, and public product page content. **Why are some fields empty?**\ Not every page exposes every field. Search and category pages provide listing-level data; product detail pages provide richer fields such as description, ingredients, and sample reviews when present. **Can I monitor price or stock changes?**\ Yes. Use `mode` = `monitor` with the same `query` on a schedule. Each run stores state in a named key-value store and returns only new, changed, or removed products. **Is scraping allowed?**\ Only collect data you have the right to use and follow applicable laws and Ulta's terms. Use reasonable request rates and avoid collecting personal data. ### Datos de productos de Ulta Este Actor extrae datos públicos de productos de Ulta Beauty (precios, valoraciones, disponibilidad e información del producto) desde páginas de búsqueda o categorías.
