## 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

## Sitejabber Reviews Scraper (No API Key)

Scrape Sitejabber business and consumer reviews into clean, structured JSON — no API key, no login. Point this Sitejabber review scraper at any company review page or domain and export every review with its star `rating`, `reviewTitle`, `reviewText`, `author`, `datePublished`, plus the parent `business`, its `businessRating`, and `domain`. Built for developers, market researchers, data analysts, and AI/RAG pipelines that need bulk customer review data and pay per result — no subscription.

Reliability comes from Chrome TLS impersonation (curl\_cffi) over Apify residential US proxies with per-request session rotation, so anti-bot walls get cleared and pages return complete review data.

### ⚡ Quick start

Paste this into the Actor's **Input** (JSON view) and hit **Start**:

```json
{
  "domains": ["nike.com"],
  "maxReviews": 50
}
```

Each result row looks like:

```json
{
  "domain": "nike.com",
  "business": "Nike",
  "businessRating": 3.4,
  "reviewTitle": "Great shoes, slow shipping",
  "reviewText": "Ordered two pairs of running shoes. Quality is exactly what you'd expect, but delivery took almost two weeks.",
  "rating": 4,
  "author": "Michael R.",
  "datePublished": "2025-11-18"
}
```

Or run it from the API:

```
POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/jamhimself~sitejabber-reviews-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN
```

### What you get

Each row is one review with its business context:

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `business` | Name of the reviewed business |
| `businessRating` | Overall aggregate star rating for the business |
| `domain` | Business domain, e.g. `nike.com` |
| `rating` | 1–5 star rating for this review |
| `reviewTitle` | Review headline |
| `reviewText` | Full review body text |
| `author` | Reviewer name |
| `datePublished` | Date the review was posted |

### Use cases

- **Competitor and brand monitoring** — track incoming Sitejabber reviews and ratings for your company and rivals over time.
- **Customer sentiment and market research** — build datasets of consumer complaints, praise, and star ratings for analysis or reporting.
- **Product and reputation analysis** — aggregate review text and ratings across multiple businesses to spot recurring issues and trends.
- **LLM / RAG feeds** — pipe real customer review text into retrieval-augmented generation, fine-tuning, or summarization workflows.
- **Review dataset building** — export bulk, structured review data as JSON, CSV, or Excel for BI dashboards and data science.
- **Due diligence and vendor vetting** — pull a business's full review history and aggregate rating before partnering or buying.

### Input

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,jamhimself/sitejabber-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).
