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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Booking.com Cruises Scraper This Apify actor scrapes cruise details from the [Booking.com Cruises](https://booking.com/cruises) platform based on user-defined parameters, including date range, cruise length, cruise line, departure port, destination, and more.

Options include major ports worldwide. | | `destination` | String | `"ALL"` | Filter by destination. Options include Alaska, Caribbean, Europe, South Pacific, and more. | | `max_number_of_pages` | Integer | `-1` | Maximum number of pages to scrape. Use `-1` to scrape all available pages. | | `max_number_of_parallel_requests` | Integer | `1` | Maximum number of parallel requests to make. | #### Example Input ```json { "start_date": "2024-01-01", "end_date": "2024-12-31", "cruise_length": "6-10 days", "cruise_line": "MSC Cruises", "departure_port": "FL - Miami", "destination": "Caribbean - Eastern", "max_number_of_pages": 5, "max_number_of_parallel_requests": 2 } ``` ### Output The actor outputs the scraped cruise data in a structured JSON format.

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/K8xlkfsCatjOOFfTF/builds/BTRudMyNSPeAkI1ki/openapi.json
