## 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/docs.md):
```bash
npm install apify-client
```
In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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.

# README
## PChome 24h Scraper — Taiwan's #1 online store products & prices
Scrape products from **[PChome 24h](https://24h.pchome.com.tw/)**, Taiwan's largest online store. Search any keyword in Chinese or English and get prices, brands, images and descriptions as clean JSON — no login, no browser, no proxies to configure.
### What you get
```json
{
"productId": "DYAQ9Q-A900GQOE3",
"name": "專業商務藍牙耳機 if-K200PRO",
"productUrl": "https://24h.pchome.com.tw/prod/DYAQ9Q-A900GQOE3",
"price": 990,
"originalPrice": 990,
"currency": "TWD",
"brand": "ifive",
"image": "https://cs-a.ecimg.tw/items/DYAQ9QA900GQOE3/000001_1761710107.jpg",
"isPChomeOfficial": true,
"hasCoupon": true
}
````
Numeric TWD prices, original price, brand, product image, official-store flag, coupon flag, category ID and description — every product as one clean row.
### Who uses this
- **Price monitoring & repricing** — track prices on Taiwan's biggest online store
- **Brand & MAP monitoring** — see how your products are priced and described
- **Market & assortment research** — what sells, at what price, in any category
- **Comparison shopping / affiliate sites** — feed a Taiwan price-comparison product
### How to use
1. Enter a **keyword** — Chinese or English (`iphone`, `咖啡機`, `藍牙耳機`).
2. Set **Max products** (default 100).
3. Choose **Sort** — best selling, price low→high, or price high→low.
4. Run, then download from the **Dataset** tab as JSON / CSV / Excel, or fetch via API.
### Pricing model
You pay per result — a small fee for each product returned. A 500-product export costs less than a coffee.
### FAQ
**Chinese keywords?** Yes — PChome is a Chinese-language store; both `咖啡機` and `coffee maker` work.
**How fresh is the data?** Live. Every run queries PChome in real time.
**Is this legal?** The Actor collects only publicly visible product data, the same any visitor sees. It does not log in or access private data. You are responsible for complying with PChome's terms and applicable laws.
**Something broke?** Open an issue on this Actor's page — typically fixed within 24 hours.
