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 Product Scraper Convert any Alibaba.com product URL into a complete, structured record — full ladder pricing, MOQ, SKU matrix, per-SKU inventory, supplier profile, ratings, and media gallery. ### What you can do with it - **Sourcing & supplier qualification** — score suppliers on join years, on-time delivery rate, response time, and Trade Assurance amount at scale. - **Pricing intelligence** — capture full ladder pricing per quantity tier for true cost modeling. - **Catalog enrichment** — pull rich SKU variants (color/size with per-option images) and high-resolution photos into your own product pages. - **Compliance / due diligence** — verify supplier business type, registered country, paid-member status, and authentication flags. - **Inventory awareness** — know which SKUs are in stock, where they ship from, and the boxed MOQ. ### Features - **Ladder pricing** — every quantity tier with per-unit price and formatted price. - **MOQ matrix** — minOrderQuantity, customsMoq, boxMoq, quantityUnit. - **SKU variants** — full color/size/configuration tree with per-option images and availability flags. - **Per-SKU inventory** — stock count, place of dispatch, region. - **Product properties** — basic specifications, industry properties, and all other attributes the supplier listed. - **Media** — full image gallery (8+ images per product) plus product video URL when present. - **Rich supplier profile** — companyId, business type, country, gold-supplier years, on-time delivery rate, response time, Trade Assurance amount, supplier rating reviews, all profile URLs. - **Review summary** — store-level averageStar, totalReviewCount. - **Resilient against Aliyun WAF** — auto-retry with proxy rotation. - **Default Dataset output** — JSON / CSV / Excel / RSS / HTML export. ### Input ```json { "productUrls": [ { "url": "https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/TWS-Wireless-Earbuds-Bluetooth_1601234567890.html" } ], "maxConcurrency": 3, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } } ```` | Field | Type | Description | | --- | --- | --- | | `productUrls` | URL\[] | Alibaba product detail URLs. | | `maxConcurrency` | int | Parallel workers (default 3). | | `maxRequestRetries` | int | Per-request retry budget (default 8). | | `proxyConfiguration` | proxy | Apify Proxy or custom list.
