Siemens SIOS PDF downloader — download certificates (CE, UL, CCC, ATEX, FM), manuals, and engineering files from SiePortal / SIOS by part number. Saves PDFs to Apify Key-Value Store with metadata. Filter by document type. Chain with Document PDF Parser. Use from Python, Node.js, or MCP.

When to use this Actor

Use the Siemens Document Downloader when you need Siemens SIOS PDFs saved as files — not just links.

For structured specs from those PDFs, chain Siemens Document PDF Parser. For compact TED catalog datasheets, use Siemens Datasheet Downloader.

Key Features

• SIOS literature — Certificates, manuals, engineering files
• KV Store files — Binary PDFs + dataset metadata
• Type filters — Narrow downloads before billing volume
• Residential proxy — Recommended for stable SIOS access

Integration examples

Node.js

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('crawloop/siemens-sieportal-document-downloader').call({{ searchTerms: ['6ES7193-6BP00-0DA0'], downloadFiles: true, maxDocumentsPerProduct: 3, proxyConfiguration: {{ useApifyProxy: true, apifyProxyGroups: ['RESIDENTIAL'] }} }});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.slice(0, 5));

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(token)
run = client.actor("crawloop/siemens-sieportal-document-downloader").call(
    run_input={{"searchTerms": ["6ES7193-6BP00-0DA0"], "downloadFiles": True, "maxDocumentsPerProduct": 3, "proxyConfiguration": {"useApifyProxy": True, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"]}}}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item.get("partNumber"), item.get("documentType"), item.get("status"))
