About Apify Store Scraper

Need to understand what's trending in the Apify Store or keep tabs on the competition? This scraper is your backstage pass. I built it because I wanted to track new actors and pricing changes without manually checking the store every day. It pulls everything you see on a listing page: the full description, monthly run stats, pricing tiers, categories, and all the tags. You can filter results by a search query to narrow things down, and it runs smoothly through Apify Proxy to avoid blocks. When it's done, you get clean, structured data in JSON or CSV format. I use the output for a few key things: market research to spot gaps for new actors, competitor tracking to see who's launching what, and trend analysis to understand which categories are heating up. It just automates the tedious part of gathering public info so you can focus on the insights.

Key Features

  • Collects comprehensive actor data: Fetches titles, names, owner details, categories, descriptions, images, and pricing models.
  • Exports usage statistics: Captures run history, user counts, recent activity (7/30/90 days), and success/failure rates.
  • Search and filter: Optionally filter results using a free-text query parameter to search actor titles and descriptions.
  • Controlled output: Limit the number of results with the required maxItems parameter.
  • Reliable scraping: Uses the Apify proxy (defaulting to the RESIDENTIAL proxy group) by default for robust operation.

How to Use

  1. Add the actor to your Apify account.
  2. Configure the input (see below). Only maxItems is strictly required.
  3. Run the actor.
  4. Download the results from the Dataset tab in JSON or CSV format.

Input Parameters

Provide input as a JSON object. The proxyConfiguration shown here uses the recommended default.

Parameter Type Default Description
maxItems integer (≥ 1) 10 Required. The maximum number of actor records to return.
query string "" Optional. A search string to filter actors by title, description, etc. Leave empty for no filter.
proxyConfiguration object { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] } Proxy settings. The prefill uses Apify's RESIDENTIAL proxy group.

Example Inputs

Get the first 50 actors (no filter):

{
  "maxItems": 50,
  "query": "",
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}

Search for "tiktok" and get up to 25 results:

  "query": "tiktok",
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}

  • Basic Info: title, name, username, description, categories[], pictureUrl
  • Owner Info: userFullName, userPictureUrl
  • Pricing: currentPricingInfo (model and details)
  • Statistics: stats object containing:
    • totalRuns, totalUsers, totalBuilds
