## 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.

### Pricing

Pay-per-result pricing. Tiered discounts apply automatically based on usage volume.

| Tier | Price per result |
|------|------------------|
| FREE | $0.005 |
| BRONZE | $0.004 |
| SILVER | $0.003 |
| GOLD | $0.002 |

### Limitations

- Full menus are not always available — some restaurant menu endpoints are gated; dish search still works reliably.
- Restaurant search returns up to ~102 results per query; dish search up to ~100 (no further pagination).
- Collections mode returns ~7-12 restaurants per cuisine collection.
- Dish search requires a search query — there is no "all dishes in city" mode.
- Google ratings appear for ~60% of restaurants (depends on Swiggy's own coverage).

### Compared to alternatives

- **vs. dhrumil/swiggy-scraper** (~$8/1K results): This actor charges ~$5/1K with both restaurant and dish modes, plus Google ratings.
- **vs. Swiggy Partner API**: Swiggy does not offer a public data API; this actor is the structured-data alternative.

Pairs well with [Zomato Scraper](https://apify.com/thirdwatch/zomato-scraper?fpr=9m2cd6) and [Google Maps Scraper](https://apify.com/thirdwatch?fpr=9m2cd6) for full India F\&B coverage.

### FAQ

**Can I search by dish with prices?**
Yes. Set `searchType: "dish"` and pass dish names in `queries`. Returns menu items with prices, descriptions, and addons.

**Does this work outside India?**
No, Swiggy operates only in India. 30 major cities are supported.

**Can I target a specific neighborhood?**
Yes. Pass `latitude` and `longitude` to override the city-level default.

**How fresh is the data?**
Pulled live at run time — as fresh as Swiggy itself.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config.
