## 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

### What does Google Products Scraper do?

Fetch deep Google Shopping product details via Google's immersive product page (`/async/oapv`) — title, brand, price, rating, review count, images, specs, categories — plus optional merchant offers and size / colour variants.

### Why use Google Products Scraper?

- **Deep product detail.** Full spec table, all images, categories — what Google surfaces when a tile is clicked.
- **Merchant offers.** Optional `include_offers` fetches the full competing-merchants price list.
- **Size + colour variants.** Optional `include_variants` fetches the variant matrix.
- **Batch input.** One or many `gpcid`s per run — no separate task per product.
- **Pair with Shopping.** Pipe `gpcid`s from `google-shopping-scraper` for end-to-end product enrichment.

### What data can Google Products Scraper extract?

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| product_id | string | Source `gpcid` |
| title | string | Product title |
| brand | string | Brand / manufacturer |
| rating | number | Star rating |
| reviews_count | number | Review count |
| price | object | `{value, currency, extracted}` |
| images | array | All product images |
| specs | object | Attribute → value map |
| categories | array | Google category path |
| offers | array | Merchant offer list (optional) |
| variants | array | Size / colour variants (optional) |

### How to scrape Google Shopping (product detail)

1. Click **Try for free**.
2. Paste one or many `gpcid`s into **Product IDs** (comma-separated).
3. Optional: `q` (original query), `gl` / `hl`.
4. Toggle `include_offers` and/or `include_variants` for deeper data.
5. Click **Start** — products stream into the dataset.

### How much will it cost?

**$0.01 per product detail (≈ $10 per 1,000 products).** `include_offers` / `include_variants` each add one sub-request, roughly doubling the per-product cost. Base = $0.01; with all toggles = ≈ $0.03.

#### Competitor benchmark

| Actor | Author | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| emastra/google-shopping-product-details | emastra | $30 /mo subscription + CUs | Subscription required |
| apify/google-shopping-scraper | Apify | ~$4 / 1k tiles (no detail) | Shallow tiles |
| compass/crawler-google-shopping | Compass | ~$5 / 1k | Search-only |
| **scrape-badger/google-products-scraper** | **ScrapeBadger** | **$10 / 1k products** | **Only pay-per-use deep detail** |

### Input

Configure the run in the **Input** tab above, or pass a JSON object matching the fields below when calling the Actor via the Apify API.

| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| product_ids | ✅ | One `gpcid` per line, or comma-separated. |
| q | — | Original search query (improves routing). |
| gl / hl | — | Country + language. |
| include_offers | — | Fetch merchant offers list. |
| include_variants | — | Fetch size / colour variants. |

### Output

Every successful run streams records into the run's dataset. Download as JSON, CSV, XML, Excel, or HTML from the **Dataset** tab; consume programmatically via the Apify API or webhooks.

Example record:

```json
{
  "product_id": "1234567890123456789",
  "title": "Nike Air Max 90 \u2014 Men's",
  "brand": "Nike",
  "rating": 4.6,
  "reviews_count": 2341,
  "price": {
    "value": "$120.00",
    "currency": "USD",
    "extracted": 120.0
  },
  "images": [
    "https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/\u2026"
  ],
  "specs": {
    "Color": "White/Black",
    "Sole material": "Rubber"
  },
  "categories": [
    "Apparel & Accessories",
    "Shoes",
    "Athletic Shoes"
  ],
  "offers": [
    {
      "merchant": "Nike.com",
      "price": 120.0
    },
    {
      "merchant": "Foot Locker",
      "price": 115.0
    }
  ],
  "variants": [
    {
      "size": "10",
      "color": "White/Black"
    }
  ]
}
````

### Tips / Advanced options

- **Batch by 100-500 `gpcid`s per run.** Memory + Apify compute budget sweet spot.
- **`include_offers` is great for price comparison.** See every merchant selling the same SKU, ranked by price.
- **Not-found products are stamped, not hidden.** A `{status: empty, reason: not_found, product_id: …}` record per miss.
- **Dedupe by `product_id`.** `gpcid`s are stable across runs — perfect primary key.

### FAQ, Disclaimers, Support

#### What's a `gpcid`?

Google Shopping's product ID. Surfaced as `gpcid` on each tile returned by `google-shopping-scraper`.

#### Can I pass an ASIN or SKU instead?

No — `gpcid` is Google's own ID. Run Shopping search first, collect the `gpcid`, then feed it here.

#### Why is the price an object?

`extracted` is the numeric (cents-safe) value, `value` is the formatted string, `currency` is the ISO code. Use `extracted` for filtering/analysis.

#### What's the difference between `offers` and `variants`?

`offers` = different merchants selling the same product. `variants` = size / colour / configuration options of the same product.
