## Pricing

Pay per usage

This Actor is paid per platform usage. The Actor is free to use, and you only pay for the Apify platform usage, which gets cheaper the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## Trade Show Exhibitor Intelligence

Extract lead-ready exhibitor fields from public event, sponsor, and trade show exhibitor pages. V1 is direct-source only: it uses URLs or domains you provide plus same-domain exhibitor links found on those pages. It does not use search engines, private portals, authentication, or paid event databases.

### What It Returns

- Company name, event name, profile URL, and website
- Categories, country or region, social URLs, booth hall, booth number, and booth label
- Description, confidence, status, chargedEvent, sourceUrls, and errors on every dataset row

### PPE Events

- `exhibitor_profile_enriched`: useful enriched exhibitor profile
- `exhibitor_partial`: useful partial exhibitor evidence
- `invalid`, `blocked`, `not_found`, `not_exhibitor_page`, and `error`: no-charge diagnostic rows

### Inputs

Use `urls` for exact exhibitor directory/profile pages, or `domains` when you want the actor to inspect an event domain for same-domain exhibitor links. Keep `maxLinkedPages` low for cheap proof runs.

### Positioning

Use this as an experimental lead-generation lane after the B2B procurement/supplier actors are live. It is intentionally lighter than browser-based event scraping, so maintenance stays bounded while we test paid demand.

# Actor input Schema

## `urls` (type: `array`):

Public event exhibitor directory, exhibitor profile, sponsor, or booth listing URLs to fetch directly. No search engine discovery is used.
## `domains` (type: `array`):

Optional bare event domains. Domains are normalized to https://domain/ and inspected for same-domain exhibitor or directory links only.
## `eventName` (type: `string`):

Optional event or trade show name used as a parsing hint and fallback eventName field.
## `countryRegionHint` (type: `string`):

Optional country, state, or region used only as a local classification hint when that text appears on the page.
## `maxLinkedPages` (type: `integer`):

When a supplied page links to same-domain exhibitor, sponsor, booth, directory, or company profile pages, fetch up to this many extra direct-source pages as evidence.
## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum normalized direct sources and extracted exhibitor rows to emit.
## `dryRun` (type: `boolean`):

Validate input and write local output without sending dataset rows or charging custom PPE events.

# 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.ces.tech/exhibitors/",
        "https://www.bio.org/events/bio-international-convention/exhibitor-directory"
    ],
    "domains": [
        "ces.tech",
        "bio.org"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("taroyamada/trade-show-exhibitor-intelligence").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);
});
