This Apify Actor scrapes search results from ASOS.com based on the search query you provide. You can specify where to start and where to stop in the search results.

The Actor accepts the following input parameters:

• search_query (required): The search query string. This is the term you want to search for on ASOS.
• start (optional): The index of the item to start scraping from. Defaults to 0.
• last_items (optional): The index of the item to stop scraping at. If not provided, scraping will continue until the last item.

{
  "search_query": "shoes",
  "start": 0,
  "last_items": 10
}

In this example, the Actor will start scraping from the first item and stop at the 10th item.

1. Initialization: The Actor initializes with the search query q and the optional start and last_items parameters.
2. Pagination: The Actor navigates through the search results pages to gather items.
3. Data Extraction: For each item in the specified range, the Actor extracts relevant information such as item title, price, URL, and image.
