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 ## Shopify Review Scraper This Actor detects and scrapes Shopify review platforms without Playwright or Selenium. It accepts one or more store domains or URLs and currently supports: - Okendo - Yotpo v1 and v3 - Judge.me - Stamped.io - TestFreaks - Junip ### Input Use `storeDomains` for one or more domains or full URLs: ```json { "storeDomains": ["snif.co", "drsquatch.com"], "mode": "fast", "maxReviews": 25, "outputFormat": "dataset" } ```` ### Output Review rows are pushed to the default Dataset when `outputFormat` is `dataset` or `both`. The `OUTPUT` key in the default Key-Value Store contains a run summary for every requested store. When `outputFormat` is `files` or `both`, per-store JSON/CSV files are also stored in the Key-Value Store. ### Local Run From this `apify` folder: ```powershell apify run --purge ``` The sample local input is in `storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json`. # Actor input Schema ## `storeDomains` (type: `array`): Enter one or more Shopify store domains or URLs. Examples: snif.co, drsquatch.com, https://truebotanicals.com ## `mode` (type: `string`): Fast mode prioritizes speed with higher concurrency. Balanced mode is more conservative. ## `maxReviews` (type: `integer`): Optional cap per store. Leave empty to scrape until platform pagination ends or maxPages is reached. ## `outputFormat` (type: `string`): Dataset pushes review rows. Files stores JSON/CSV in key-value store. Both does both. ## `includeEmptyStatusItems` (type: `boolean`): When enabled, stores with no collected reviews still add a status row to the dataset. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): Hard pagination cap for provider APIs. ## `timeoutSeconds` (type: `integer`): Per-request timeout in seconds. ## `retries` (type: `integer`): Retry attempts per request. ## `delay` (type: `integer`): Base delay between slower pagination requests in milliseconds. ## `globalInflight` (type: `integer`): Maximum concurrent HTTP requests. Fast mode may tune this upward. ## `perHostInflight` (type: `integer`): Maximum concurrent HTTP requests per host. Fast mode may tune this upward. ## `maxJsFiles` (type: `integer`): Upper bound for review-relevant JavaScript files fetched during detection. ## `detectionProductPages` (type: `integer`): Number of product pages sampled during platform detection. ## `detectionMaxProductFetch` (type: `integer`): Hard cap for product pages fetched during detection. ## `httpBackend` (type: `string`): HTTP client backend. ## `parserBackend` (type: `string`): HTML parser backend. ## `jsonBackend` (type: `string`): JSON parser/serializer backend. ## `diskCacheEnabled` (type: `boolean`): Cache HTTP responses within the current Actor run filesystem. ## `diskCacheTtlSeconds` (type: `integer`): Time-to-live for cached responses. ## `memoryCacheEnabled` (type: `boolean`): Cache duplicate HTTP requests in memory during each store run. ## Actor input object example ```json { "storeDomains": [ "snif.co", "drsquatch.com" ], "mode": "balanced", "outputFormat": "dataset", "includeEmptyStatusItems": false, "maxPages": 500, "timeoutSeconds": 12, "retries": 3, "delay": 200, "globalInflight": 12, "perHostInflight": 4, "maxJsFiles": 40, "detectionProductPages": 8, "detectionMaxProductFetch": 30, "httpBackend": "auto", "parserBackend": "auto", "jsonBackend": "auto", "diskCacheEnabled": false, "diskCacheTtlSeconds": 1800, "memoryCacheEnabled": true } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `reviews` (type: `string`): No description ## `summary` (type: `string`): No description ## `files` (type: `string`): No description # 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 = { "storeDomains": [ "snif.co", "drsquatch.com" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("yogeshpandar/universal-shopify-review-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 📖?
