# Look up PLUS products by EAN barcode

**Use case:** 

PLUS EAN barcode lookup: give a list of barcodes and get each product's current price, unit price, deal, size and category from plus.nl. Works although PLUS's own search does not find barcodes: the 3 example barcodes (a Verdejo wine, Kalverliefde milk, PLUS cashews) took about 3 minutes. $0.0015 per product found.

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/sleepmodesystems/plus.md

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`).
