## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## B\&H Photo Video Product Scraper: Extract Camera & Electronics Data

***

### What Is B\&H Photo Video?

B\&H Photo Video is a leading U.S. electronics retailer specializing in cameras, lenses, audio equipment, computers, and professional video gear. With thousands of SKUs across multiple categories and frequent price changes, manually tracking inventory and pricing is inefficient. The **B\&H Photo Video Product Scraper** automates data collection from search results pages, delivering structured product information in seconds.

***

### Overview

The **B\&H Photo Video Product Scraper** extracts detailed product listings from category and search pages on bhphotovideo.com. It transforms unstructured HTML into clean, structured records containing pricing, availability, reviews, and promotional details. Ideal for:

- **Price monitoring services** tracking camera and electronics costs
- **E-commerce aggregators** feeding product data into comparison platforms
- **Market researchers** analyzing pricing trends in retail electronics
- **Competitors** benchmarking product selection and availability
- **Affiliate marketers** building dynamic product feeds

The scraper handles pagination efficiently, respects rate limits, and includes optional failure tolerance for large-scale collection runs.

***

### Input Format

The scraper accepts JSON configuration specifying which product pages to scrape:

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Digital-Cameras/ci/9811/N/4288586282/pn/2"
  ],
  "max_items_per_url": 200,
  "ignore_url_failures": true
}
```

| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `urls` | array | Product list or category page URLs from bhphotovideo.com. Paste search results pages, category pages, or filtered lists. |
| `max_items_per_url` | integer | Maximum products to collect per URL (recommended: 50–200). Higher values capture more results but increase runtime. |
| `ignore_url_failures` | boolean | If `true`, skips failed URLs and continues the run; if `false`, stops on first error. Recommended: `true` for bulk operations. |

**Example URLs:**

- Category page: `https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Digital-Cameras/ci/9811`
- Search results: `https://www.bhphotovideo.com/search?search=canon+mirrorless`
- Filtered list: `https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/.../pn/2` (any page number)

### How to Use

1. **Prepare URLs** — Navigate to bhphotovideo.com, apply filters if needed (category, price, brand), and copy the URL from your browser.
2. **Paste URLs** — Add one or more product list URLs to the `urls` array.
3. **Set limits** — Define `max_items_per_url` (default: 100). Higher values capture more products but require more time.
4. **Enable failure tolerance** — Set `ignore_url_failures: true` for bulk runs to prevent interruptions if a URL fails.
5. **Run scraper** — Start the actor and monitor progress via the live log.
6. **Export data** — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis.

**Best practices:**

- Start with `max_items_per_url: 50` for testing; increase once confirmed working.
- Use specific category URLs rather than the homepage to reduce noise.
- Run during off-peak hours to minimize server load.
- Re-scrape weekly for price and stock changes.

***

### Use Cases & Business Value

- **Price intelligence:** Monitor competitor pricing on popular camera models weekly or daily.
- **Inventory tracking:** Identify stock-outs, backorders, and new SKU arrivals automatically.
- **Market research:** Analyze category trends (e.g., demand for mirrorless vs. DSLR cameras).
- **Affiliate feeds:** Power dynamic product comparison sites with current B\&H data.
- **Deal aggregation:** Identify promotions and rebates across thousands of products at scale.

With the B\&H Photo Video Scraper, you eliminate manual browsing and unlock real-time market intelligence that informs pricing strategy, inventory decisions, and customer-facing content.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Digital-Cameras/ci/9811/N/4288586282/pn/2"

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "urls": [
        "https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/Digital-Cameras/ci/9811/N/4288586282/pn/2"
    ],
    "ignore_url_failures": true,
    "max_items_per_url": 100
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("soft_alexist/bhphotovideo-product-search-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
