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 ## Ulule Project Search Scraper: Extract Crowdfunding Campaign Data --- ### What Is Ulule.com? Ulule is Europe's leading crowdfunding platform, hosting thousands of creative and entrepreneurial projects spanning technology, design, publishing, and social impact. From indie games to sustainable products, Ulule connects innovative ideas with passionate backers. However, manually browsing and cataloging projects is impractical at scale — the **Ulule Project Search Scraper** automates this entirely, transforming Ulule's discover pages into structured, analyzable data. --- ### Overview The **Ulule Project Search Scraper** extracts comprehensive project details from Ulule's discovery and search pages, capturing everything from funding progress to backer counts and campaign metadata. It serves: - **Investors & business analysts** tracking crowdfunding trends and emerging categories - **Researchers** studying innovation ecosystems and creator markets - **Content curators** building databases of trending or niche projects - **Developers** integrating crowdfunding data into dashboards or aggregator platforms Key strengths include high-volume scraping (up to 200 items per URL), graceful failure handling via `ignore_url_failures`, and comprehensive output spanning funding metrics, dates, imagery, and more. --- ### Input Format The scraper accepts a simple JSON configuration: ```json { "urls": [ "https://www.ulule.com/discover/?offset=120" ], "max_items_per_url": 200, "ignore_url_failures": true } ```` | Field | Description | |---|---| | `urls` | List of Ulule project list pages (discover, search results, or category pages) | | `max_items_per_url` | Maximum projects scraped per URL (default: 20, max: 200) | | `ignore_url_failures` | If `true`, the scraper continues even if a URL fails; set to `false` to stop on error | > **Tip:** Use `?offset=0`, `?offset=120`, etc., to scrape paginated results sequentially. Combine multiple offset URLs to build comprehensive datasets. *** ### Output Format **Sample output** ```json { "absolute_url": "https://www.ulule.com/yourhappystudio/", "amount_raised": 90, "country": "FR", "currency": "EUR", "date_end": null, "date_online": "2026-02-25T11:51:04.436375Z", "date_start": "2026-02-25T00:00:00Z", "description_yourself": { "en": "

Copy the URL with query parameters. - Example: `https://www.ulule.com/discover/?offset=0` 2. **Configure pagination** — To scrape multiple pages, add URLs with different `offset` values (e.g., `offset=0`, `offset=120`, `offset=240`). 3. **Set item limits** — Adjust `max_items_per_url` based on your needs (max 200 per page). 4. **Handle failures** — Enable `ignore_url_failures: true` for large batch runs to skip problematic URLs gracefully. 5. **Run and export** — Start the scraper and download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel. **Best practices:** - Use `offset` pagination to systematically cover all projects - Filter by category URL to focus on specific industries - Run during off-peak hours to minimize Ulule server load - Respect Ulule's Terms of Service and robots.txt guidelines *** ### Use Cases & Business Value - **Market intelligence:** Monitor emerging product categories and funding trends across Europe - **Investor scouting:** Identify promising projects or creators for follow-on investment - **Content strategy:** Discover trending ideas and underrepresented niches worth covering - **Academic research:** Analyze crowdfunding success rates, creator demographics, or reward structures - **BI & dashboards:** Feed live project data into Tableau, Power BI, or Looker for real-time monitoring The Ulule Project Search Scraper transforms scattered campaign listings into clean datasets, eliminating manual collection and enabling data-driven insights across the crowdfunding landscape. *** ### Conclusion The **Ulule Project Search Scraper** unlocks the full potential of Europe's largest crowdfunding ecosystem. Whether tracking market trends, scouting investment opportunities, or conducting research, this scraper delivers detailed, structured project data at scale. Combine it with analysis tools to uncover patterns, identify winners, and stay ahead in the crowdfunding space. # Actor input Schema ## `urls` (type: `array`): Add the URLs of the project list urls you want to scrape. You can paste URLs one by one, or use the Bulk edit section to add a prepared list. ## `ignore_url_failures` (type: `boolean`): If true, the scraper will continue running even if some URLs fail to be scraped. ## `max_items_per_url` (type: `integer`): The maximum number of items to scrape per URL. ## Actor input object example ```json { "urls": [ "https://www.ulule.com/discover/?offset=120" ], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_items_per_url": 20 } ``` # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "urls": [ "https://www.ulule.com/discover/?offset=120" ], "ignore_url_failures": true, "max_items_per_url": 20 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("stealth_mode/ulule-project-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); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
