## 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

## reCaptcha Bypass Browser Scraper

### Browser Scraper for Protected Websites

This Actor renders public pages in a Camoufox browser, supports optional JavaScript and Apify Proxy configuration, and reports challenge pages and request failures per URL. Protection systems vary by target, so no generic bypass success is guaranteed.

### What it does

- **Challenge detection**: Flags common reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha, Cloudflare, and access-denied pages
- **Structured outcomes**: Every requested URL produces a row with status, attempts, and error classification
- **JavaScript-Heavy Sites**: Full support for dynamic, JavaScript-rendered content
- **Enterprise-Grade**: Professional solution for the most heavily protected websites

### How to use it

1. Enter the URLs you want to scrape
2. Configure retry settings and proxies if needed
3. Add custom JavaScript if you need to extract specific data
4. Run the scraper and get your results

### Key features

- **reCaptcha Bypass**: Advanced algorithms to bypass Google's latest reCaptcha protection systems
- **Intelligent Retry Logic**: Smart retry mechanisms with exponential backoff for failed requests
- **Premium Proxy Rotation**: Built-in proxy support for maximum success rates
- **Custom JavaScript Execution**: Run your own JavaScript code on each protected page
- **Complete HTML Capture**: Get the full rendered HTML after all dynamic content loads
- **Bounded scalability**: Process multiple URLs with a configurable concurrency limit
- **Browser Automation**: Advanced headless browser capabilities for complex sites

### Example use cases

- **E-commerce Scraping**: Monitor competitor prices on reCaptcha-protected e-commerce sites
- **Market Research**: Collect data from heavily protected financial and market research platforms
- **Lead Generation**: Extract contact details from business directories behind reCaptcha
- **Price Intelligence**: Track product availability and pricing on protected retail sites
- **Competitive Intelligence**: Gather strategic data from competitor websites with advanced protection
- **Real Estate Data**: Scrape property listings from protected real estate platforms
- **Travel & Booking**: Extract pricing and availability from protected booking systems

### Getting your data

The Actor returns structured data with:

- **Scraped URL**: The original URL that was successfully processed
- **JavaScript Results**: Output from your custom JavaScript execution on protected pages
- **Complete HTML**: Full rendered HTML content after bypassing all reCaptcha protections
- **Success Metadata**: Detailed information about the scraping process and any challenges overcome
- **Status Metadata**: `succeeded`/`failed`, attempts, challenge detection, and sanitized error details

### Testing reCaptcha Bypass Browser Scraper

**reCaptcha Bypass Browser Scraper** comes with a pre-configured example to demonstrate its reCaptcha bypass capabilities:

```json
{
  "urls": ["https://www.apify.com/"],
  "max_retries_per_url": 2,
  "proxy": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  },
  "js_script": "return document.title;",
  "js_timeout": 10,
  "retrieve_result_from_js_script": true,
  "page_is_loaded_before_running_script": true,
  "execute_js_async": false,
  "retrieve_html_from_url_after_loaded": true
}
```

**To test the reCaptcha bypass capabilities:**

```bash
apify run
```

This will demonstrate how **reCaptcha Bypass Browser Scraper** automatically handles reCaptcha protection systems and successfully extracts data from protected websites.
