## 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.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

💡 Looking for reviews and details for a single location? Try **canadesk/tripadvisor-reviews** instead!

### Features

This actor returns raw results.

- **Search Location**
    
    The Location Input is free-text (see next section for types). The process runs the first compatible location (city, district, etc.).

    To make sure the process will evaluate the right location, you can first run "List Search Results" separately.

- **Free Search**

    The Input is free-text. This will return any restaurant matched by Tripadvisor.

    This process does not support filters. They will be ignored.

    🛑 Tripadvisor does not check free search results. For example, you may be looking for an exact address and still end up with restaurants from another country in the results.

- **List Search Results**
    
    Data is automatically cached for 30 days by default. Disable cache or delete the storage "tripadvisor" manually to force a refresh.

### Limitations

⚡ Tripadvisor only accepts locations from a certain type. For example, exact addresses and entire countries are not supported.

Accepted types: "CITY", "COUNTY", "ISLAND", "ISLAND_GROUP", "MUNICIPALITY", "NATIONAL_PARK", "PARISH", "PREFECTURE", "PROVINCE", "REGION", "TERRITORY".

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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "location": "los angeles",

    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("canadesk/tripadvisor-restaurants").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) => {
