## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Sellfy Creator Scraper

Extract complete creator storefronts from [Sellfy](https://sellfy.com) — profile, bio, and full product catalog (eBooks, videos, subscriptions, print-on-demand) — no login required.

### What it scrapes

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `url` | Canonical subdomain storefront URL (`https://<username>.sellfy.com`) |
| `username` | Normalised Sellfy username |
| `creator_name` | Creator's display name |
| `bio` | Creator bio / store description |
| `product_count` | Total number of products found |
| `products[]` | Array of product objects (see below) |

#### Product fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `title` | Product title |
| `price` | Price string (`"$9.99"`, `"free"`) |
| `type` | Inferred type: `ebook`, `course`, `video`, `audio`, `subscription`, `print_on_demand`, `software`, `template`, `preset`, `bundle`, `digital_download` |
| `description` | Short description (if visible on the storefront listing) |
| `image` | Thumbnail / cover image URL |
| `url` | Direct product URL |

### Input

```json
{
  "creators": [
    "sellfydemo",
    "https://username.sellfy.com",
    "https://sellfy.com/username"
  ],
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}
```

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `creators` | string\[] | — | Sellfy usernames or full storefront URLs (subdomain or path form) |
| `maxConcurrency` | integer | `5` | Parallel fetch limit (1–20) |
| `proxyConfiguration` | proxy | Apify Proxy | Outbound proxy settings |

### URL format support

Both Sellfy URL formats are accepted and normalised automatically:

| Input | Resolved as |
|---|---|
| `username` | `https://username.sellfy.com` |
| `https://username.sellfy.com` | `https://username.sellfy.com` |
| `https://sellfy.com/username` | `https://username.sellfy.com` (redirect followed) |

### Technical notes

- Sellfy serves server-rendered HTML with optional JSON-LD structured data.
- The parser extracts `application/ld+json` Product items first (fast, structured).
- Falls back to CSS card parsing with [selectolax](https://github.com/rushter/selectolax) (lexbor engine) when JSON-LD is absent.
- Creators with private stores or bot-blocked pages are returned with an `error` field instead of crashing the run.

# Actor input Schema

## `creators` (type: `array`):

List of Sellfy usernames or full storefront URLs. Accepts 'username', 'https://username.sellfy.com', or 'https://sellfy.com/username'. Each yields one result.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many creators to fetch in parallel.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy used for outbound requests. Sellfy serves server-rendered HTML; a datacenter proxy is usually sufficient.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "creators": [
    "sellfydemo"
  ],
  "maxConcurrency": 5,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": []
  }
}
```

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

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "creators": [
        "sellfydemo"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("vsekar91/sellfy-creator-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);
