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 ## Gumroad Creator Profile Scraper (Enhanced) Scrape complete [Gumroad](https://gumroad.com) creator profiles — focused on **creator-level data** rather than product search. Existing Apify Gumroad scrapers crawl the discover page; this actor takes a list of creator usernames and returns their full profile + every product. ### What it scrapes #### Per creator | Field | Description | |---|---| | `username` | Gumroad username | | `profile_url` | Canonical subdomain URL (e.g. `https://nathanbarry.gumroad.com/`) | | `creator_name` | Display name from profile | | `bio` | Creator bio / about text | | `avatar_url` | Profile picture URL | | `followers` | Follower count (if shown) | | `social_links` | Dict of platform → URL (twitter, instagram, youtube, etc.) | | `product_count` | Total number of products found | | `products` | Array of product records (see below) | #### Per product (nested in `products`) | Field | Description | |---|---| | `product_url` | Full product page URL | | `title` | Product title | | `price` | Numeric price (0.0 for free products) | | `price_str` | Raw price string (e.g. "$12", "Pay what you want") | | `is_free` | Boolean | | `product_type` | Inferred type: ebook, course, template, etc. | | `description` | Product description text | | `cover_image` | Cover/preview image URL | | `rating` | Numeric rating (if shown) | | `num_ratings` | Number of ratings | | `num_sales` | Sales / buyer count (if shown) | ### Input ```json { "creators": ["nathanbarry", "sahilbloom"], "maxConcurrency": 5, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ```` - **creators** (required): usernames, `gumroad.com/username` URLs, or `username.gumroad.com` URLs. - **maxConcurrency**: parallel creator fetches (default 5, max 20). - **proxyConfiguration**: standard Apify proxy config. ### How it works 1. Each creator username is resolved to their `username.gumroad.com` subdomain (following Gumroad's 301 redirect automatically). 2. The profile page is parsed for creator metadata and all product page links. 3. Each product page is fetched concurrently (up to 3 per creator) and parsed for full product details. 4. One dataset record per creator is pushed, containing the full profile and nested products list. ### Notes - Both `gumroad.com/username` (old canonical) and `username.gumroad.com` (new subdomain) formats are accepted and normalised automatically. - Gumroad does not expose a public unauthenticated API; all data is scraped from rendered HTML. - Product type is inferred from page text (ebook, course, template, etc.) when not explicitly marked. # Actor input Schema ## `creators` (type: `array`): List of Gumroad creator usernames or profile URLs. Accepts all three formats: bare username ("nathanbarry"), canonical URL ("https://gumroad.com/nathanbarry"), or subdomain URL ("https://nathanbarry.gumroad.com/"). Each creator yields one result record containing their full profile and product list. ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): How many creator profiles to fetch in parallel. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Proxy used for outbound requests. Gumroad does not aggressively block scrapers; the default Apify Proxy datacenter pool is generally sufficient. ## Actor input object example ```json { "creators": [ "nathanbarry", "sahilbloom" ], "maxConcurrency": 5, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [] } } ``` # 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 = { "creators": [ "nathanbarry", "sahilbloom" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("vsekar91/gumroad-enhanced-scraper").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 📖?
