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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## GoYellow.de Business Directory Scraper Scrape business listings from [GoYellow.de](https://www.goyellow.de), Germany's comprehensive business directory combining listings, reviews, and maps. ### Features - **Keyword + location search** — Find businesses by type and city - **Detail page enrichment** — Optional deep scraping for full profiles - **Pagination** — Automatically crawls multiple result pages - **Pay-per-result pricing** — Only pay for what you scrape ### Output Fields Every result includes these fields: | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | `company_logo_url` | string | Real business logo (not a gallery image or generic placeholder) | | `name` | string | Business name | | `description` | string | Full "Über uns" description text | | `address` | string | Full formatted address | | `street` | string | Street line incl. house number | | `postal_code` | string | 5-digit German postal code | | `city` | string | City | | `country` | string | Always `DE` | | `phone` | string | Phone number | | `fax` | string | Fax number when listed | | `email` | string | Email address | | `website` | string | External official website | | `category` | string | Business category (e.g., "Steakhäuser und Grillhäuser") | | `rating` | number | Aggregate star rating (0–5) | | `review_count` | number | Total number of reviews | | `opening_hours` | string | Day-by-day business hours | | `latitude` | number | Geo coordinate (WGS-84) | | `longitude` | number | Geo coordinate (WGS-84) | | `social_urls` | object | Social profile map — `facebook`, `twitter`, `instagram`, `linkedin`, `youtube`, `xing`, `tiktok` (keys included only when present) | | `external_review_urls` | object | External review source map — `yelp`, `google_maps`, `tripadvisor`, `golocal`, `11880`, `jameda` (keys included only when present) | | `recent_reviews` | object[] | Individual review entries with `rating`, `text`, `author`, `date`, `source`, `url`, and `is_truncated` flag | | `source_url` | string | Original detail page URL | | `source_platform` | string | Always `goyellow.de` | | `scraped_at` | string | ISO-8601 UTC timestamp | #### About `is_truncated` on reviews GoYellow shows a server-side preview for some partner reviews (golocal, Yelp, …).
