# Check variants and availability in a Shopify store

**Use case:** 

Get every variant of a store's products with its title (for example the size or colour), SKU where the store publishes one, price and whether it is available. Use it to see which sizes or colours a competitor can deliver right now. Availability is the yes or no flag in the public feed; stock counts are not published there and are not returned.

## Input

```json
{
  "storeUrls": [
    "https://www.allbirds.com"
  ],
  "maxItemsPerStore": 10,
  "includeVariants": true,
  "maxItems": 10,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  },
  "maxRequestRetries": 3,
  "debugLog": false

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [Shopify Products API & Scraper](https://apify.com/sourcing-data-studio/shopify-products-api.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/sourcing-data-studio/shopify-products-api.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## 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/sourcing-data-studio/shopify-products-api.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`).
