## 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

## Beter Bed Scraper

Scrape mattresses, beds, boxsprings, and bedroom furniture from beterbed.nl, the Netherlands' largest sleep specialist with 100+ stores.

### Input

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `startUrls` | Array | No | Category or product URLs, e.g. `https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen` |
| `maxResults` | Integer | No | Product limit (default: 100) |
| `proxyConfiguration` | Object | No | Proxy settings |

Without input, the scraper browses the matrassen (mattresses) category.

### Output

| Field | Type | Example |
|-------|------|---------|
| `name` | String | `"Gold Foam Comfort Matras"` |
| `brand` | String | `"Beter Bed"` |
| `price` | Number | `599.00` |
| `originalPrice` | Number | `749.00` |
| `currency` | String | `"EUR"` |
| `sku` | String | Product SKU |
| `ean` | String | EAN barcode |
| `productId` | String | Beter Bed product ID |
| `inStock` | Boolean | `true` |
| `rating` | Number | `4.3` |
| `reviewCount` | Number | `87` |
| `imageUrl` | String | Product image |
| `imageUrls` | Array | Multiple product images |
| `description` | String | Product description (HTML tags stripped) |
| `category` | String | `"Matrassen"` |
| `categories` | Array | Full breadcrumb path |
| `specs` | Object | `{"Hoogte": "25 cm", "Hardheid": "Medium"}` |

```json
{
    "name": "Gold Foam Comfort Matras",
    "brand": "Beter Bed",
    "price": 599.00,
    "originalPrice": 749.00,
    "currency": "EUR",
    "inStock": true,
    "rating": 4.3,
    "specs": {
        "Hoogte": "25 cm",
        "Hardheid": "Medium"
    },
    "category": "Matrassen",
    "url": "https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen/gold-foam-comfort-matras",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-03-15T09:00:00.000Z"
}
```

### How it works

1. Listing pages: scans all links, filters for product pages by path depth and name patterns
2. Also checks for JSON-LD `ItemList` data as fallback for product discovery
3. Product pages: JSON-LD `Product` data is the primary source, HTML fallback for missing fields
4. Listing data (name, price, image) from the card is passed as `userData` to the detail page as fallback
5. Pagination: `rel="next"` links, "Volgende" aria-labels, or `?page=N` incrementing

### Cost

CheerioCrawler with Dutch browser headers. **~$0.25 per 1,000 products.**

### Notes

- Auto-detects product vs. listing pages (JSON-LD `Product` presence is the tiebreaker)
- Breadcrumbs skip "Home" and "Beter Bed"
- Specs from both `<table>` rows and `<dl>` definition lists
- HTML descriptions are auto-cleaned of tags

# Actor input Schema

## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of products to return.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

    {
      "url": "https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen"
    }
  ],

# 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 = {
    "startUrls": [
        {
            "url": "https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen"
        }
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("studio-amba/beterbed-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 = { "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen" }] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("studio-amba/beterbed-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 '{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://www.beterbed.nl/matrassen"
    }
  ]
}' |
apify call studio-amba/beterbed-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

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