## 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.

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

## Shopify Store Intelligence — Catalog + Pricing Snapshot

Pull the **full public catalog** of any Shopify-powered storefront — all products,
variants, prices, SKUs, vendor portfolio, and stock signals — in one run. No
login, no HTML scraping, no headless browser. Just the open `/products.json`
endpoint that Shopify exposes for every store by design.

### What you get

**One row per product** (default) — or one row per variant (SKU) if you'd rather
join in a spreadsheet. Every row carries:

- Identifiers: `productId`, `handle`, `url`, `storeDomain`
- Catalog metadata: `title`, `vendor`, `productType`, `tags`, `imageCount`
- Pricing signal: `minPrice`, `maxPrice`, `anyOnSale`, per-variant
  `price` + `compareAtPrice`
- Stock signal: `variantsInStock` / `variantsTotal`, per-variant `available`
- Timestamps: `publishedAt`, `createdAt`, `updatedAt`

Plus a per-store summary in OUTPUT with vendor distribution (top 10), product
types breakdown, products on sale / in stock, and an optional `/collections.json`
snapshot.

### Why this matters

Shopify powers >4 million live stores. Each one of them silently publishes its
full product catalog at `/products.json`, paginated 250 at a time. Most growth
teams don't know this — and the ones that do are stitching together one-off
scripts. This actor turns that into a single, reliable, paginated, billable
data source.

**Built for:**

- **Competitive intelligence** — track a competitor's catalog every week:
  what's new, what dropped, what went on sale.
- **DTC / dropshipping research** — discover niches by surveying which vendors
  are inside which collections across a list of stores.
- **Pricing surveillance** — compare your prices vs. a curated panel of peers.
- **M&A / investor due diligence** — snapshot a target's full SKU count,
  vendor mix, and pricing distribution from a single run.

### Input

| Field | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `stores` | yes | — | List of domains or URLs. `"gymshark.com"`, `"https://allbirds.com"`, `"shop.example.com"` — all valid. |
| `maxProductsPerStore` | no | `5000` | Hard cap per store. Shopify itself enforces a page index ceiling of ~150 (true max ≈ 37 500 products / store). |
| `includeCollections` | no | `true` | Also pull `/collections.json` into the per-store summary. |
| `rowMode` | no | `per_product` | `per_product` (one row, all variants nested) or `per_variant` (one row per SKU). |
| `includeBodyHtml` | no | `false` | Include the long-form HTML product description. Skip unless you need it — adds 2–10 KB / row. |
| `detectStack` | no | `false` | Fetch the store's homepage and detect installed apps + tech stack. Adds `installedApps` and `techStack` to the per-store summary. One extra HTTP request per store, **no billing impact**. |

### Output

**Dataset** — one row per product (or per variant).
**Key-value store** — `OUTPUT` with per-store summaries and the billing ledger
summary; `BILLING_LOG` with the full audit trail of every charge call.

### Pricing

PAY_PER_EVENT, $0.001 per product extracted (`product_extracted`). A 5 000-SKU
store costs ~$5. The `per_variant` mode is free of extra charge — billing is
per product, not per variant.

### v0.2 — what's new

**Stack detection.** Set `detectStack: true` to fetch the store's homepage
once and surface the installed apps + tech stack in the per-store summary:

````

"installedApps": \["klaviyo", "recharge", "loox", "gorgias", "meta\_pixel"],
"techStack": {
"checkout":      \["shopify"],
"subscriptions": \["recharge"],
"reviews":       \["loox"],
"email":         \["klaviyo"],
"chat":          \["gorgias"],
"pixels":        \["meta\_pixel", "tiktok\_pixel"],
"analytics":     \["ga4"]
}

````

Tells covered: Recharge / Ordergroove / Appstle / Loop (subscriptions);
Loox / Judge.me / Yotpo / Stamped / Okendo / Reviews.io (reviews); Klaviyo
/ Privy / Justuno / Omnisend / Mailchimp (email); Gorgias / Intercom /
Tidio / Crisp / Zendesk / Drift (chat); Smile.io / Refersion (loyalty);
GA4 / Northbeam / TripleWhale (analytics); Meta / TikTok / Pinterest
(pixels); Shogun / PageFly / GemPages (page builders); Rebuy (upsell).

Adds one extra GET request per store. **No billing impact** — billing
still charges per `product_extracted`.

### Notes & limits

- **Non-Shopify URLs are skipped, not failed.** If a domain doesn't serve
  `/products.json`, the store appears in OUTPUT with a `skipped` reason
  (404, non-JSON, network) and no rows or charges are emitted.
- **Shopify hard limit.** The public storefront API caps the `page` parameter
  around 150 — a true ceiling of ~37 500 products. The actor stops cleanly
  when it hits that.
- **No personal data.** This endpoint is public catalog data designed to be
  served to anyone who lands on the store. No customer info, no order info,
  no inventory counts beyond `available: true/false`.
- **Polite by default.** Uses a normal browser User-Agent and follows
  redirects; no Apify Proxy needed because the endpoint is openly served.

### Source

Each Shopify storefront exposes:
- `GET /products.json?limit=250&page=N` — paginated product feed.
- `GET /collections.json?limit=250` — collection metadata.

These are public endpoints, served the same way to scrapers, plugins, and
your browser's view-source.

# Actor input Schema

## `stores` (type: `array`):

Storefront URLs or bare domains. Examples: "gymshark.com", "https://allbirds.com", "shop.example.com". The actor probes /products.json; non-Shopify URLs are skipped with a note in the output.
## `maxProductsPerStore` (type: `integer`):

Hard cap per store. Each page returns up to 250 products; the actor paginates until empty or this cap is reached. Shopify's public storefront API enforces an upper page index ~150, so true cap is ~37500.
## `includeCollections` (type: `boolean`):

Also pull /collections.json. Adds collection metadata (title, handle, products_count) to the store summary in OUTPUT.
## `rowMode` (type: `string`):

"per_product" (default) emits one row per product with all variants nested. "per_variant" emits one row per SKU — more rows, easier for spreadsheet joins.
## `includeBodyHtml` (type: `boolean`):

Adds the long-form product description HTML to each row. Roughly 2-10 KB per product. Off by default to keep dataset compact.
## `detectStack` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch the store homepage and detect installed apps (Recharge, Loox, Klaviyo, Yotpo, Judge.me, …) plus tech-stack categories (subscriptions, reviews, email, chat, loyalty, pixels). Adds `installedApps` and `techStack` fields to the per-store summary. One extra HTTP request per store, no billing impact.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "stores": [
    "gymshark.com",
    "allbirds.com",
    "kith.com"
  ],
  "maxProductsPerStore": 5000,
  "includeCollections": true,
  "rowMode": "per_product",
  "includeBodyHtml": false,
  "detectStack": false
}
