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 ## Alibaba Supplier / Company Scraper Pull a complete supplier profile from any Alibaba.com subdomain — business type, registered country, gold-supplier years, on-time delivery rate, response-time SLA, Trade Assurance amount, and full supplier rating breakdown. ### What you can do with it - **Supplier due diligence** — verify business type, registered country, paid-member status, dispatch guarantee, and Trade Assurance amount before issuing an RFQ. - **Bulk supplier scoring** — rank thousands of suppliers on response-time SLA, on-time delivery rate, and gold-supplier years. - **Compliance** — capture aliMemberId, encryptCompanyId, and company identifiers for downstream reconciliation. - **Sales prospecting** — get supplier contact name, job title, video-chat availability, and trade history URL. ### Features - **Subdomain metadata** — companyId, encryptCompanyId, aliMemberId, aliId, leader-supplier flag, elite status. - **Rich supplier profile** (auto-enriched from one of the supplier's products): - Company: name, business type, join years, registered country, logo. - Trust flags: isGoldPlusSupplier, isLeaderSupplier, isPaidMember, isCgsMember, isDispatchGuaranteed, isCompanyBusinessTypeAuth. - SLA: responseTimeText, onTimeDeliveryRate. - Trade Assurance: tradeAssuranceAmount, tradeAssuranceIsService. - Reviews: supplierAverageStar + per-criterion scatter (services, shipping, quality). - Contact: contactName, jobTitle, hasVideoChat. - URLs: homeUrl, profileUrl, tradeHistoryUrl, feedbackUrl. - **Auto-enrichment** — resolves subdomain meta first, then finds a sample product to pull the rich seller block. - **Resilient against Aliyun WAF** — auto-retry with proxy rotation. - **Default Dataset output** — JSON / CSV / Excel / RSS / HTML export. ### Input ```json { "companyUrls": [ { "url": "https://aonicsz.en.alibaba.com/" }, { "url": "https://szouwo.en.alibaba.com/" } ], "maxConcurrency": 3, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` | Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | `companyUrls` | URL\[] | Alibaba supplier subdomain URLs (`https://.en.alibaba.com/`). | | `maxConcurrency` | int | Parallel workers (default 3). | | `maxRequestRetries` | int | Per-request retry budget (default 8). | | `proxyConfiguration` | proxy | Apify Proxy or custom list. RESIDENTIAL recommended. | ### Sample Output ```json { "url": "https://aonicsz.en.alibaba.com/", "scrapedAt": "2026-05-09T12:03:47Z", "companyId": 203847291, "aliMemberId": "aonicsz", "subDomain": "aonicsz", "sampleProductUrl": "https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/TWS-Wireless-Earbuds_1601234567890.html", "seller": { "companyName": "Shenzhen Aonic Electronics Co., Ltd.", "companyBusinessType": "Manufacturer", "companyRegisterCountry": "CN", "companyJoinYears": 7, "isGoldPlusSupplier": true, "isPaidMember": true, "isDispatchGuaranteed": true, "responseTimeText": "≤3h", "onTimeDeliveryRate": "96.5%", "tradeAssuranceAmount": "180,000", "supplierAverageStar": 4.8, "supplierRatingByCriterion": { "supplierServices": { "averageScore": 4.9 }, "shippingTime": { "averageScore": 4.7 }, "productQuality": { "averageScore": 4.8 } }, "contactName": "Alice Chen", "hasVideoChat": true, "feedbackUrl": "https://www.alibaba.com/supplier/feedback/203847291.html" } } ``` ### Notes Public supplier data only — no Alibaba account required. # Actor input Schema ## `companyUrls` (type: `array`): List of Alibaba supplier subdomain URLs (https://.en.alibaba.com/). ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of parallel requests. ## `maxRequestRetries` (type: `integer`): How many times a request will be retried before giving up. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Apify Proxy or your own proxy list. RESIDENTIAL group is recommended. ## Actor input object example ```json { "companyUrls": [ { "url": "https://headphones.en.alibaba.com/" }, { "url": "https://jun-ye.en.alibaba.com/" } ], "maxConcurrency": 3, "maxRequestRetries": 6, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
