Scrape Snapchat public profiles from explore/listing pages or direct profile URLs. Runs on Apify with optional proxy fallback (no proxy → datacenter → residential).
Input
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| keywords | array | No | Search keywords (e.g. fashion). For each keyword, the actor scrapes both explore and spotlight sections, merges profile URLs, and tracks sourceSections per profile. |
| startUrls | array | No | Explore or profile URLs. Use with or without keywords. Bulk supported. |
| proxyConfiguration | object | Yes | Proxy settings. Default: no proxy. If Snapchat blocks, actor falls back to datacenter then residential. |
| maxProfilesPerUrl | integer | No | Max profile URLs to scrape per explore page (default: 50, max: 200). |
| maxConcurrentProfiles | integer | No | Concurrent profile requests (default: 10, max: 20). |
Provide at least keywords or startUrls (or both).

How to use
- Open Apify Console → Actors.
- Select this actor and configure startUrls (and optional proxy).
- Run the actor and watch the log. Results appear in the Dataset tab.
- Export as JSON or CSV as needed.
Proxy behavior
- Default: No proxy. Requests go directly to Snapchat.
- If blocked: Fallback to Apify datacenter proxy.
- If still blocked: Fallback to Apify residential proxy; failed requests are retried up to 3 times with residential. After switching to residential, all remaining requests use residential.
- All proxy changes are logged (e.g.
[PROXY] Falling back to datacenter).
Cautions
- Only public Snapchat data is collected. You are responsible for compliance with applicable laws and Snapchat’s terms of use.
