## 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.

## Wayfair UK Scraper — Furniture & Home Products (No Login)

Scrape products, prices, ratings, and SKUs from wayfair.co.uk — the UK's largest online furniture and home retailer, spanning sofas, beds, dining sets, storage, lighting, and decor.

### What is Wayfair UK?

Wayfair operates one of the largest furniture and home-goods catalogues online, aggregating listings from thousands of third-party manufacturers and its own house brands. The breadth of its catalogue and frequency of promotional pricing make it a primary benchmark for anyone tracking UK furniture and home-goods pricing.

- **Price monitoring for the UK furniture market** — Track pricing and discount activity across categories
- **Brand and manufacturer intelligence** — See which manufacturers dominate specific product categories
- **Competitive intelligence** — Benchmark your own furniture catalogue against Wayfair's live prices and promotions
- **Market research** — Study rating distribution, review volume, and pricing tiers by category

### What data does Wayfair UK Scraper extract?

- Product name
- Brand / manufacturer
- Current price and currency (GBP)
- Original ("was") price and discount percentage, when the product is on sale
- Average rating and review count
- Wayfair SKU
- Primary product image URL
- Full product page URL

### How to scrape wayfair.co.uk data

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `searchQuery` | String | Search term, e.g. `"sofa"`, `"dining table"`, `"bed frame"` |
| `maxResults` | Integer | Maximum products to return (default: 100) |
| `brightDataApiKey` | String (secret) | Bright Data Web Unlocker API key — required, see below |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Object | Not used by this actor — kept for input-schema compatibility |

**A Bright Data Web Unlocker API key is required.** Wayfair runs PerimeterX bot protection: a single plain or residential request succeeds, but the next request in the same session gets rate-limited to a CAPTCHA page. Bright Data's Web Unlocker (UK exit) handles this server-side across pages. Get a key at [brightdata.com](https://brightdata.com).

**Tips:**

- This actor parses the server-rendered product grid directly — no login, cookies, or session state needed
- SKU is read from the add-to-basket form on each card, falling back to the product-URL identifier when the form is missing
- Results are deduplicated by product URL across pagination

### Output

Each product is returned as a structured JSON object:

```json
{
    "productName": "Bosco 3 Seater Sofa Bed Vintage design Multi-functional",
    "brand": "Hykkon",
    "price": 309.99,
    "currency": "GBP",
    "originalPrice": 499.99,
    "discount": "-38%",
    "rating": 4.5,
    "ratingCount": 14243,
    "sku": "U003011792",
    "imageUrl": "https://assets.wfcdn.com/im/48098897/resize-h36-w36%5Ecompr-r85/3268/326871030/default_name.jpg",
    "url": "https://www.wayfair.co.uk/furniture/pdp/hykkon-bosco-3-seater-sofa-bed-vintage-design-multi-functional-u003011792.html",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-07-13T09:12:00.000Z"
}
```

### Output fields

| Field | Type | Example |
|-------|------|---------|
| `productName` | String | `"Bosco 3 Seater Sofa Bed"` |
| `brand` | String | `"Hykkon"` |
| `price` | Number | `309.99` |
| `currency` | String | `"GBP"` |
| `originalPrice` | Number | `499.99` (only when discounted) |
| `discount` | String | `"-38%"` (only when discounted) |
| `rating` | Number | `4.5` |
| `ratingCount` | Number | `14243` |
| `sku` | String | `"U003011792"` |
| `imageUrl` | String | Primary product image URL |
| `url` | String | Full product URL |
| `scrapedAt` | String | ISO 8601 timestamp |

### Cost estimate

Each search-results page returns up to 48 products from one Bright Data request, so this actor uses well under **1 compute unit per 100 products**. At standard Apify pricing that is a fraction of a cent per product.

### Limitations

- Full specs, dimensions, and assembly details live on the product detail page only — this actor scrapes the SSR search grid, not detail pages
- A small share of listings omit brand or rating data when the underlying product card doesn't render it
- Data is scraped from the public website and may change without notice
- Respect Wayfair's terms of service and use responsibly

### Frequently asked questions

**Do I need my own Bright Data account?**
Yes. Wayfair rate-limits sustained crawling with PerimeterX, so a Bright Data Web Unlocker API key is required to run this actor reliably across multiple pages.

**Why do only some products have `originalPrice`?**
`originalPrice` and `discount` only appear when a product is actively on promotion. A product at its regular price returns just `price`.

**Can I scrape a specific category page instead of a keyword search?**
This actor is built around keyword search (`keyword.php`). Category browse pages use the same `curpage` pagination pattern and can be added on request.
