Xerox Business Solutions Metadata Scraper

Xerox Business Solutions Metadata Scraper

Scrape Xerox Business Solutions metadata from any page on the site, up to a million items per run. Extract page titles, descriptions, Open Graph tags, and the full navigation tree with IDs, URLs, and modification dates. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

Xerox Business Solutions publishes its product and service catalog through a website with rich, server-rendered metadata. Manually copying page details and navigation structures is slow and error-prone. This actor reads the public HTML directly, pulling out every meta tag and the complete nested navigation hierarchy in one pass.

What a Xerox Business Solutions record looks like

Every record returns as one flat JSON row. Here is a real one from a run:

{
 "imageUrl": "https://www.xeroxbusinesssolutions.com/content/dam/xerox/xbs/images/photography/woman-holding-tablet-in-office-800x400.jpg",
 "pageTitle": "Xerox Business Solutions: Office Supplies & Smart Technologies",
 "metaDescription": "Boost productivity with Xerox workplace solutions, document management & digital printing. Simplify workflows & enhance collaboration-get started today!",
 "metaTemplate": "homepage",
 "canonicalUrl": "https://www.xeroxbusinesssolutions.com/en-us",
 "ogTitle": "Xerox Business Solutions: Office Supplies & Smart Technologies",
 "ogDescription": "Boost productivity with Xerox workplace solutions, document management & digital printing. Simplify workflows & enhance collaboration-get started today!",
 "ogImage": "https://www.xeroxbusinesssolutions.com/content/dam/xerox/xbs/images/photography/woman-holding-tablet-in-office-800x400.jpg",
 "ogUrl": "https://www.xeroxbusinesssolutions.com/en-us",
 "contentPageRef": "ZjPILwPFjIXOM1xW3DF2zrK3pcOwhb4WoM0vxZM5PjuFrS0DYNG499L_mzh1AG-d",
 "scrapedAt": "2026-09-04T03:36:15.283Z"
}

Every value above comes from a real run. A field a record does not have comes back as null.

Configure the run

Drive the Actor from one or more start URLs, and set a maximum item count to control the size of your dataset. The Input tab lists every parameter.

A first run with the defaults:

{
 "startUrls": [
 {
 "url": "https://www.competitive.com"
 }
 ],
 "maxItems": 10
}

A larger pull:

{
 "startUrls": [
 {
 "url": "https://www.competitive.com"
 }
 ],
 "maxItems": 200
}

Free users

Free-plan runs return up to 10 results as a preview. Upgrade your Apify plan to collect up to 1,000,000 results per run.

Run it

1. Create a free Apify account with $5 in credit.
2. Open the Xerox Business Solutions Metadata Scraper.
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 (run-sync-get-dataset-items) or the ApifyClient for JavaScript and Python.

Use with AI agents (MCP)

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

claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=parseforge/xerox-business-solutions-scraper"

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

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that your start URL is a valid page on the Xerox Business Solutions site (the domain should resolve to xeroxbusinesssolutions.com). Also verify that your max items setting is greater than zero. If the page returns a 421 or other error, try the homepage URL directly.

The navigation tree looks incomplete or missing some levels.

The actor extracts exactly what is present in the HTML at the time of the request. If certain navigation items are loaded dynamically after the initial page load, they may not appear. Try running the actor on the specific page that contains the full navigation, usually the homepage.

I hit the max items limit but I need more data.

Paid Apify plans allow up to 1,000,000 items per run. If you are on a paid plan, increase the max items value in the input. If you are on the free plan, upgrade to raise the limit.

The actor is running slowly.

The actor makes standard HTTP requests. Slowdowns are usually due to the target server's response time. Try reducing the number of start URLs or running during off-peak hours.

FAQ

Question	Answer
What data does this actor extract from Xerox Business Solutions?	It extracts page-level metadata (title, meta description, meta template, canonical URL), Open Graph tags (title, description, image, URL), and the full navigation tree including every item's ID, type, title, URL, level, active status, repo modify date, and its parent, child, and grandchild relationships.
Can I scrape multiple pages at once?	Yes. You can provide a list of start URLs in the input, and the actor will process each one, returning a combined dataset up to the max items limit you set.
Does this actor require a login or API key?	No. It reads the public HTML of the Xerox Business Solutions website. No registration, API key, or authentication is needed.
What format is the navigation tree returned in?	Each navigation item is returned as a flat row with fields for its own properties and the properties of its parent, children, and grandchildren. The hierarchy is preserved through these relationship fields, not nested JSON.
How many items can I scrape?	Free Apify users are limited to 10 items for preview. Paid users can set a max items value up to 1,000,000 per run.
