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

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 ## Amazon Vendor Chargeback Dispute Generator API ### What it does If you're tired of manually checking competitors' prices, reviews, or content every morning, this API handles the entire workflow for you. `Amazon Vendor Chargeback Dispute Generator API` pulls data directly from the live source, normalizes it, and delivers it to you in a single, clean response. Teams can directly connect this output to alarms, dashboards, or automation workflows. ### Why This API? Most teams waste hours every day either conducting manual checks or patching fragile web scraping scripts. This API transforms that process into a repeatable, seconds-long task. Your development team won't have to deal with "did the site layout change?" issues, and your product/growth teams can make decisions based on fresh, live data. In practice, you turn 2-3 hours of daily tracking into a single API call. ### Quick Start #### Step 1: Get an API Key Create an `APIFY_TOKEN` from your Apify account. #### Step 2: Make Your First Request ```bash curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/ACTOR_ID/runs?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"query":"your_search_term"}' ```` #### Step 3: Parse the Response The `request_id` in the response is used for tracing. The `items` array contains the normalized data extracted from the live source. ### Endpoint Reference | Endpoint | Method | Input | Output | When to Use | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `/v1/health` | GET | None | Service health status | Uptime monitoring | | `/v1/metrics` | GET | None | Call/metric summary | Operations tracking | | `/v1/query` | POST | `query` | Cleaned data list | Live data extraction | ### Example Request and Response ```json // Request {"query":"example search","limit":10} // Response { "request_id": "req-2026-001", "items": [ {"title": "Example Data", "url": "https://example.com/", "source": "live_api"} ], "source_timestamp": "2026-05-04T12:00:00+00:00", "errors": [] } ``` ### Error Codes | Code | Meaning | Action | | --- | --- | --- | | `INVALID_INPUT` | URL or query is invalid | Check input format | | `RATE_LIMITED` | Too many requests | Wait 1 second and retry | | `UPSTREAM_FAILURE` | Upstream site error | Retry in a few seconds | | `INTERNAL_ERROR` | Unexpected error | Open a support ticket | ### Pricing The free plan includes 100 requests per month. For regular use, the $9.99/mo tier is sufficient for most mid-sized projects. ### Support and Limits Rate limit: 60/min, burst 20. Cache TTL: 900 seconds. Retry: max\_attempts=3, backoff\_ms=\[200, 500, 1200]. ### How to Run ```bash python3 src/main.py ``` ### Tests ```bash python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p "test_*.py" -v ``` # Actor input Schema ## `query` (type: `string`): Chargeback details, reason code context, and evidence hints. ## `region` (type: `string`): Vendor region scope (e.g., NA, EU, FE, global). ## `limit` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of generated dispute records. ## Actor input object example ```json { "region": "global", "limit": 25 } ``` # 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 = {}; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("uplifted_virtue/amazon-vendor-chargeback-dispute-generator-api").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 📖?
