## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. 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`).

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

What to scrape. 'search' finds products by keyword; 'product' pulls full detail + live prices + bids for specific products; 'selftest' probes every endpoint for uptime monitoring.

## `term` (type: `string`):

Keyword to search — model, style ID, brand or silhouette (e.g. 'Air Jordan 1 Chicago', 'yeezy 350').

## `productUrls` (type: `array`):

GOAT product URLs (https://www.goat.com/sneakers/<slug>) or bare slugs. Used in 'product' mode.

## `countryCode` (type: `string`):

Two-letter country for prices/bids (GOAT prices are region-specific). Default US.

## `includePrices` (type: `boolean`):

In 'product' mode, fetch the buy-bar: lowest ask, instant-ship and last-sold per size & condition.

## `includeOffers` (type: `boolean`):

In 'product' mode, fetch the highest standing bid (offer) per size.

## `pageLimit` (type: `integer`):

Page size for search requests (1-50). The actor paginates until it reaches 'Max items'.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum results to scrape in this run.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Leave default. GOAT's edge blocks datacenter IPs, so this actor runs on residential proxy.

## `debug` (type: `boolean`):

Verbose per-request logging.
