## 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

## Booking.com Reviews Scraper

Collect bounded, publicly visible guest reviews from Booking.com hotel pages. The Actor uses ordinary Chrome and the public review modal; it does not log in, call undocumented endpoints, alter browser fingerprints, rotate sessions, retry blocked requests, or save raw pages.

### Input

- `hotelUrls`: one to 10 credential-free HTTPS Booking.com hotel URLs.
- `maxReviews`: one to 100 complete reviews per hotel.
- `maxPages`: one to five public review-modal pages per hotel.
- `sortBy` and optional `language`: public UI review order and language controls.
- `proxyConfiguration`: optional explicit Apify Proxy settings. Direct access is the default; no group or country is selected automatically.

### Output

The pay-per-event dataset contains only complete, source-backed reviews. Each row has a deterministic `reviewId`, canonical hotel identity, at least one review-evidence field, request provenance, extraction method, and connection metadata. Empty values are omitted rather than represented as null, blank, or `unknown`.

Blocked, empty, invalid, and failed work is stored only in the `OUTPUT` key-value record. A zero-review run exits nonzero. The direct browser path may use a bounded same-source public JSON-LD fallback only after zero browser results and never after an explicit access boundary or when a proxy was requested.

### Limits and responsible use

Booking.com can independently change markup or present CAPTCHA, login, WAF, rate-limit, geofence, access-denied, timeout, or incomplete surfaces. These fail closed. Public reviews can contain personal data; use them only for a legitimate, lawful purpose and follow Booking.com terms and applicable privacy law.

# 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 = {
    "hotelUrls": [
        "https://www.booking.com/hotel/fr/mirific.en-gb.html"
    ],
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": false
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("codingfrontend/booking-com-reviews-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);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {
    "hotelUrls": ["https://www.booking.com/hotel/fr/mirific.en-gb.html"],
    "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": False },
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("codingfrontend/booking-com-reviews-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "hotelUrls": [
    "https://www.booking.com/hotel/fr/mirific.en-gb.html"
  ],
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }

apify call codingfrontend/booking-com-reviews-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,codingfrontend/booking-com-reviews-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
