## 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.

### Lululemon Product Trends Scraper

**Scrape Lululemon product trends for any search term, up to a million per run.** Each trend comes with its product details, pricing, and computed signals. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Lululemon's official API needs an app registration, OAuth, and rate-limits you. This reads the public product trend feeds directly, filtered by search term, and returns each match in one fixed schema.

| Who uses it | What they scrape Lululemon for |
|---|---|
| Market researchers | Which Lululemon products are trending this week |
| E-commerce analysts | Price and product assortment changes over time |
| Competitive intelligence teams | New product launches and category shifts |
| Fashion trend forecasters | Color, fabric, and style signals from Lululemon's catalog |

### What it does

This Actor collects Lululemon product trends by search query and returns each one as a flat row.

- 🔍 **Search-driven:** enter any term like "shoes", "headphones", or "lipstick" and get matching trends.
- 📊 **Computed signals:** virality score, engagement rate, controversy score, and trend age.
- 🌐 **Residential proxies:** built-in Apify proxy support to avoid blocks and geo-restrictions.
- 📦 **Flat output:** every trend is a single row, ready for spreadsheets or databases.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

**🆕 Spot new launches.**

A competitive intelligence team searches "jackets" to detect new Lululemon releases before they appear in newsletters.

A trend forecaster queries "tops" to identify emerging colors and fabrics in Lululemon's latest collection.

| **Up to 1M trends** | Collect as many trends as you need in a single run. |

| **Structured output** | Every trend is a flat row with consistent fields for easy analysis. |

### How it compares

This Actor focuses on Lululemon product trends by search term, while the competitor extracts detailed product data from Lululemon's online store for market research and price monitoring.

| Feature | ParseForge | Lululemon Productdetails Spider |
|---|---|---|
| Search term input | Yes | Not listed |
| Trend data | Yes | Not listed |
| Computed signals | Yes | Not listed |
| Residential proxy support | Yes | Not listed |

### Configure the run

Drive the Actor from a search term, and filters run as each trend is read so only matches reach your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

```json
{
 "searchQuery": "shoes",
 "maxItems": 10,
 "proxyConfiguration": {
 "useApifyProxy": true,
 "apifyProxyGroups": [
 "RESIDENTIAL"
 ]
 }
}
```

A larger pull:

```json
{
 "searchQuery": "shoes",
 "maxItems": 200,
 "proxyConfiguration": {
 "useApifyProxy": true,
 "apifyProxyGroups": [
 "RESIDENTIAL"
 ]
 }
}
```

### Pricing

Pay-per-result: **$0.0085 per result** collected. You pay only for the results written to your dataset.

| Results collected | Approximate cost |
|---|---|
| 100 results | $0.85 |
| 1,000 results | $8.50 |
| 10,000 results | $85.00 |

New Apify accounts start with $5 in free credit.

### Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. [Upgrade your Apify plan](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp) to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

### Run it

1. [Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit](https://console.apify.com/sign-up?fpr=vmoqkp).
2. Open the [Lululemon Product Trends Scraper](https://apify.com/parseforge/wgsn-trends-scraper?fpr=vmoqkp).
3. Set your inputs and any filters, then click **Start**.
4. Export the results as CSV, Excel, JSON, or XML from the **Dataset** tab.

Run it programmatically through the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2) (`run-sync-get-dataset-items`) or the [ApifyClient](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js) for JavaScript and Python.

### Use with AI agents (MCP)

Give an AI agent live access to Lululemon through the Model Context Protocol. Add the Actor to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=parseforge/wgsn-trends-scraper"
```

Then prompt it in plain language to run the scraper and read back the results.

### Troubleshooting

**Why am I getting no results?**

Check your search term. Lululemon may not have products matching that term. Try a broader term like "shirt" instead of a specific style name.

**Why am I getting blocked or seeing CAPTCHAs?**

Ensure you are using residential proxies in the proxy configuration. If the problem persists, reduce the maxItems or slow down the run.

**Why are some fields empty in the output?**

Lululemon may not provide that data for every product. Empty fields are normal when the source page lacks the information.

**Why is the run taking so long?**

Large maxItems values and residential proxies can increase runtime. Try lowering maxItems or using a faster proxy group if available.

**Can I scrape Lululemon from a specific country?**

Yes, residential proxies allow you to choose a country. Set the proxy configuration to the desired country to get geo-specific trends.

## MCP server setup

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).
