## 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.

### How to use AutoZone Scraper

AutoZone Scraper is designed for easy and fast start even if you've never extracted data from websites before. Here's how you can extract data from AutoZone:

1. Create a free Apify account using your email
2. Open AutoZone Scraper on the Apify platform
3. Click on the **Try for free** button
4. Enter your search parameters or start URLs
5. Click on the **Start** button and wait for the data to be extracted
6. Download your data in JSON, XML, CSV, Excel, or HTML

### Input

The actor accepts the following input parameters:

- `startUrls` (array) - One or more URLs of the pages where the crawler will start. The actor will only crawl sub-pages of these URLs. For example, for the start URL `https://www.autozone.com/batteries-starting-and-charging/battery?searchText=battery&redirectUrl=true`, it will crawl related product pages but will skip unrelated sections.
- `query` (string) - The query to use for the search.
- `maxItems` (integer) - Maximum number of products to scrape (default: 5)
- `proxyConfiguration` (object) - Proxy configuration settings

The scraper will use `startUrls` if provided, otherwise it will use the `query` to generate the start URL.

Example:

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.autozone.com/batteries-starting-and-charging/battery?searchText=battery&redirectUrl=true"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 10,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "countryCode": "US"
  }
}
```

### Output

The scraped data will be saved as a dataset. Each item will represent a product listing. You can download your data in various formats: JSON, JSONL, HTML table, CSV, Excel spreadsheet, or NDJSON.

Example of the output format:

```json
{
  "url": "https://www.autozone.com/batteries-starting-and-charging/battery/duralast-gold-battery-group-size-24f-24f-dlg/123456",
  "sku": "123456",
  "productName": "Duralast Gold Battery Group Size 24F",
  "rating": "4.5 out of 5 stars",
  "price": "129.99",
  "description": "Duralast Gold batteries are designed to provide reliable starting power and long service life...",
  "attributes": {
    "Group Size": "24F",
    "Cold Cranking Amps": "650",
    "Reserve Capacity": "100",
    "Terminal Type": "Top Post",
    "Warranty": "3 Year Free Replacement"
  },
  "store": "Available at AutoZone Store #1234",
  "primaryImage": "https://www.autozone.com/images/products/duralast-gold-battery-24f.jpg"
}
```

### Notes and Limitations

- The actor relies on the structure of the AutoZone website. If the website structure changes, the actor may need to be updated
- Ensure you comply with the terms of service of autozone.com when using this actor
- For large-scale scraping, use Apify's proxy services to avoid IP blocking
- The scraper uses Camoufox for enhanced browser fingerprinting to avoid detection

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,lexis-solutions/auto-zone-com"
        }
    }
}

```

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).
