## 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.
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
## 🔍 Amazon Search Scraper
Scrape **Amazon search results, category listings and keyword autocomplete** — no Amazon login, no CAPTCHAs, no proxies to manage. Powered by [ScrapeBadger](https://scrapebadger.com)'s Amazon API: TLS fingerprinting, residential proxies and AWS WAF bypass are handled for you.
### What it does
| Mode | Input | Returns |
|------|-------|---------|
| **Search** | `query` (+ optional filters) | product results for a keyword search |
| **Category** | `node` (browse-node id) | products listed under a category node |
| **Autocomplete** | `query` (prefix) | Amazon's keyword suggestions |
**Search** and **Category** paginate automatically up to your `max_results`. Filter by `sort_by` (featured, price low→high / high→low, review rank, newest), `category` alias, and `min_price` / `max_price`.
### Data you get (per result)
`position`, `asin`, `title`, `price`, `list_price`, `unit_price`, `rating`, `ratings_total`, `is_prime`, `is_amazons_choice`, `is_sponsored`, `is_best_seller`, `bought_past_month`, `coupon`, `availability`, `image`, `link`. Prices are structured (`value`, `currency`, `symbol`, `raw`). Autocomplete returns `value` (suggestion) + `alias` (department).
### Marketplaces
20 Amazon marketplaces: `com`, `co.uk`, `de`, `fr`, `it`, `es`, `nl`, `se`, `pl`, `ca`, `com.mx`, `com.br`, `co.jp`, `in`, `com.au`, `sg`, `ae`, `sa`, `com.tr`, `eg`.
### Pricing
Pay-per-event — you only pay for what you scrape:
- **Actor start** — $0.001 per run
- **Search result** — $0.00008 each (search, category or autocomplete item)
That's **$0.08 per 1,000 results** — among the cheapest Amazon search scrapers on the Store. No monthly rental, no minimums.
### Example input
```json
{
"mode": "Search",
"query": "wireless headphones",
"domain": "com",
"sort_by": "review_rank",
"min_price": "20",
"max_price": "150",
"max_results": 200
}
````
### Sample output
```json
{
"dataType": "product",
"position": 1,
"asin": "B0CHWRXH8B",
"title": "Soundcore by Anker Q20i Hybrid Active Noise Cancelling Headphones",
"price": { "value": 39.99, "currency": "USD", "symbol": "$", "raw": "$39.99" },
"rating": 4.5,
"ratings_total": 18342,
"is_prime": true,
"is_amazons_choice": true,
"link": "https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CHWRXH8B"
}
```
