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 ## Alcampo Spain Scraper Scrape the Alcampo Spain online grocery shop (compraonline.alcampo.es) by keyword or category and get clean, structured product data: names, brands, prices, unit prices and promotions. Alcampo is the Spanish arm of Auchan, one of Europe's largest hypermarket chains. Its online shop runs on the Ocado Smart Platform and server-renders every product listing, so this actor reads the page directly — no login, no cookies, no browser required. ### Why use this actor? If you track grocery prices, build a price-comparison tool, monitor promotions, or feed a market-research dataset, you need structured product data you can rely on. This actor turns any Alcampo search or category page into a table of products with prices in EUR, unit prices, and promotion details. Typical users: - Price-intelligence and price-comparison platforms tracking Spanish retail. - Brands and suppliers monitoring how their products are listed and promoted at Alcampo. - Market researchers and analysts building grocery datasets across Spain. - Developers who need a clean product feed instead of scraping HTML themselves. ### How to scrape Alcampo Spain data 1. Open the actor in the Apify Console. 2. Enter a **search query** in Spanish — for example `leche`, `pan` or `aceite`. This returns Alcampo's top 50 matching products. 3. Alternatively, set a **category URL** (e.g. a leaf category like `https://www.compraonline.alcampo.es/categories/leche-entera/OCEntera`) to scrape that category's entire product set instead of a keyword search. 4. Set **maxResults** to how many products you want. 5. Leave the proxy on the default Apify setting and click **Start**. 6. When the run finishes, download the results as JSON, CSV, Excel or feed them to an API. The actor fetches the server-rendered listing page, parses every product card, then visits each product's page to pick up brand and category details before writing one clean record per product. ### Input | Field | Type | Required | Description | |-------|------|----------|--------------| | `searchQuery` | String | No | Keyword to search in Spanish (default: `leche`). Returns up to 50 results. | | `categoryUrl` | String | No | Full category leaf URL to scrape its entire product set. Takes priority over `searchQuery`. | | `maxResults` | Integer | No | Maximum products to return (default: 100) | | `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Apify proxy settings (default Apify proxy works) | #### Example input ```json { "searchQuery": "leche", "maxResults": 20, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ```` ### Output Each result contains: | Field | Type | Example | |-------|------|---------| | `productName` | String | `"L.R. Leche entera 6 x 1 l."` | | `brand` | String | `"L.R."` | | `price` | Number | `5.70` | | `currency` | String | `"EUR"` | | `pricePerUnit` | String | `"0,95 € por litro"` | | `originalPrice` | Number | `6.50` | | `discount` | String | `"-12%"` | | `sku` | String | `"99193"` | | `imageUrl` | String | Primary product image URL | | `url` | String | Full product page URL | | `scrapedAt` | String | ISO 8601 timestamp | `originalPrice` and `discount` are present only on promoted products. ### Example output ```json { "productName": "L.R. Leche entera 6 x 1 l.", "brand": "L.R.", "price": 5.70, "currency": "EUR", "pricePerUnit": "0,95 € por litro", "sku": "99193", "imageUrl": "https://www.compraonline.alcampo.es/images-v3/37ea0506-72ec-4543-93c8-a77bb916ec12/eb6553ac-fc96-4ae4-b258-d0edea51cc71/500x500.jpg", "url": "https://www.compraonline.alcampo.es/products/l-r-leche-entera-6-x-1-l/99193", "scrapedAt": "2026-07-13T09:00:00.000Z" } ``` ### Notes and limitations - Prices are the current online-shop prices in EUR. - **Search caps at 50 results.** Alcampo's search page ignores the `?page=` parameter (verified: page 2 returns the same 50 products as page 1). To scrape more than 50 items for a topic, use `categoryUrl` to target a specific leaf category page, which renders its full product set in one page. - **EAN / barcode is not exposed** anywhere on the Alcampo storefront (listing or product page), so it is not included in the output. - `originalPrice` and `discount` appear only when a product is on promotion. ### Cost Pricing is pay-per-result. A typical search or category run of 20–100 products completes in under a minute, so most runs cost only a few cents in Apify platform usage plus the per-result fee. ### Related Scrapers Build a complete view of European grocery retail with these sibling scrapers from Studio AMBA: - **[Monoprix France Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/monoprix-fr-scraper)** — French supermarket products on the same platform (monoprix.fr). - **[BILLA Austria Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/billa-at-scraper)** — Austrian supermarket products and prices (billa.at). - **[Mercadona Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/mercadona-scraper)** — Spain's largest supermarket (mercadona.es). - **[Dia ES Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/dia-es-scraper)** — Spanish supermarket products and prices (dia.es). - **[Continente PT Scraper](https://apify.com/studio-amba/continente-pt-scraper)** — Portuguese groceries with EAN barcodes (continente.pt). # Actor input Schema ## `searchQuery` (type: `string`): Keyword to search the Alcampo catalogue in Spanish (e.g. 'leche', 'pan', 'aceite'). Returns up to 50 results — Alcampo's search does not paginate past the first 50. ## `categoryUrl` (type: `string`): Full Alcampo category leaf URL (e.g. https://www.compraonline.alcampo.es/categories/leche-entera/OCEntera) to scrape its ENTIRE product set instead of a keyword search. Takes priority over searchQuery if both are set. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of products to return. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Apify proxy settings. Default Apify (datacenter) proxy works — Alcampo is served via CloudFront with no anti-bot detected. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQuery": "leche", "maxResults": 20, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
