## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## 📈 DeFiLlama Yield Pools Scraper

> **Export DeFiLlama yield pools as flat rows, filtered before they reach you.** Each row carries the pool id, project, token symbol, chain, TVL in US dollars, total APY split into base and reward, the stablecoin flag, impermanent loss risk and exposure type. No API key, no wallet, no account.

DeFiLlama tracks thousands of pools across every chain it covers. The web table sorts and paginates but does not export, and reading it by hand means re-applying the same filters every morning. This Actor applies the filters server side, chain, project, symbol, minimum TVL, minimum APY and stablecoin status, then writes what survives into a dataset you can open in a spreadsheet.

| Who uses it | What they use pool data for |
|---|---|
| 💼 Treasury and finance teams | Comparing where idle cash sits against on-chain yield, with TVL as a depth check |
| 🔍 Diligence analysts | Testing whether a crypto-native target's claimed yield matches the public record |
| 📊 Researchers and allocators | Building a filtered universe of pools by chain, size and risk profile |
| 🛠 Protocol and product teams | Tracking competing pools on the same asset without writing an integration |

### 📋 What it does

> 💡 **Why it matters:** a yield number without TVL and without the base-versus-reward split is not a yield number. Pulling all three in one row is what makes the comparison honest.

- 🎛 **Filters before it collects.** Chain, project slug, symbol substring, minimum TVL, minimum APY and stablecoin only, applied in the run rather than in your spreadsheet afterwards.
- 💵 **TVL in US dollars** on every row, so pool size is comparable across chains and assets.
- ➗ **APY split three ways.** Total `apy`, the `apyBase` the pool itself pays, and `apyReward` from incentives, which is the part that can stop.
- ⚖️ **Risk shape, as DeFiLlama labels it.** Impermanent loss risk and whether the pool is single-sided or multi-asset.
- 📑 **Sorted your way.** Order by TVL or by APY and cap the run, so a small pull returns the top of the list rather than an arbitrary slice.
- 💾 **Exports to CSV, Excel, JSON or XML**, from the run page or the API.

### 📊 Output

Every pool is one flat row. `apyReward` is `null` where the pool pays no incentive on top of its base rate.

| 💵 `tvlUsd` | number | Total value locked, in US dollars |
| 📈 `apy` | number | Total annual percentage yield, as a percentage |
| 🧱 `apyBase` | number | The part of the APY the pool itself generates |
| 🎁 `apyReward` | number | The part paid as incentives, or `null` where there is none |
| 💲 `stablecoin` | boolean | `true` where DeFiLlama classifies the pool as a stablecoin pool |
| ⚠️ `ilRisk` | string | Impermanent loss risk as labelled, for example `no` |
| 🎯 `exposure` | string | Asset exposure, for example `single` or `multi` |

### ✨ Why choose this Actor

| | What you get |
|---|---|
| **Filters applied in the run** | Seven inputs narrow the universe before you pay for a single row. |
| **No credentials** | Nothing to register for, no wallet connection, no rate-limit negotiation. |
| **Base and reward kept apart** | The incentive portion is visible, so a 40% headline rate cannot hide behind one number. |
| **The same 13 fields every run** | Append daily pulls into one dataset and chart a pool's rate over time. |
| **You pay per row** | No subscription. A filter that matches nothing costs nothing. |

### 🚀 How to use it

1. [Create a free Apify account](https://console.apify.com/sign-up). New accounts start with $5 of credit.
2. Open the Actor and select **Try for free**.
3. Set the filters you care about: `chain`, `project`, `symbolContains`, `minTvl`, `minApy`, `stablecoinOnly`.
4. Choose `sortBy` and set `maxItems` to cap the run.
5. Select **Start**, then export from the **Dataset** tab as CSV, Excel, JSON or XML.

A first run, the largest pools by TVL:

```json
{
  "maxItems": 10,
  "sortBy": "tvlUsd"
}
```

Stablecoin pools on one chain, above a size floor, ranked by rate:

```json
{
  "chain": "Ethereum",
  "stablecoinOnly": true,
  "minTvl": 10000000,
  "minApy": 4,
  "sortBy": "apy",
  "maxItems": 200
}
```

### ⚙️ Input

| Field | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `maxItems` | No | How many pools to collect per run |
| `chain` | No | Restrict to one chain, for example `Ethereum`, `Arbitrum` or `Solana` |
| `project` | No | Restrict to one DeFiLlama project slug, for example `aave-v3`, `lido` or `curve-dex` |
| `symbolContains` | No | Case-insensitive substring match on the pool symbol |
| `minTvl` | No | Only return pools with TVL at least this many US dollars |
| `minApy` | No | Only return pools with APY at least this many percent |
| `stablecoinOnly` | No | Restrict to stablecoin pools |
| `sortBy` | No | Order results by `tvlUsd` or `apy`. Defaults to `tvlUsd` |

### 💰 Pricing

Pay per result. No subscription, and no Apify platform usage on top.

| Apify plan | Free | Bronze | Silver | Gold | Platinum | Diamond |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Per pool row | $0.0085 | $0.00817 | $0.00783 | $0.0075 | $0.0075 | $0.0075 |

| Rows collected | Cost on the Free plan |
|---|---|
| 100 | $0.85 |
| 1,000 | $8.50 |
| 10,000 | $85.00 |

**Free plan runs** return up to 10 rows as a preview. Any paid Apify plan lifts that cap.

### 🔌 Integrate with any app

The dataset is available through the Apify API as soon as the run finishes. Use `run-sync-get-dataset-items` for a one-shot call, webhooks to trigger what happens next, or the Make, Zapier, Airbyte and LangChain integrations listed on the Actor page.

### 🤖 Use with an AI agent

Give an agent live access to yield data over the Model Context Protocol:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=acquistion-automation/defillama-yields-pools-v2-scraper"
```

Then ask it in plain language for the largest stablecoin pools on a chain and read the result back.

### ❓ Frequently asked questions

**Is the APY historical or a point-in-time figure?**
Point in time. Each row is the rate DeFiLlama published at `scrapedAt`. Run the Actor on a schedule and append the results if you want a series.

**What does `apyReward` being `null` mean?**
The pool pays no incentive on top of its base rate, so the whole `apy` comes from `apyBase`. It does not mean the value is missing.

**Does a row include the pool's prediction, 7-day average or underlying token addresses?**
No. Each row carries the 13 fields listed above and nothing else.

**How do I find a project slug?**
Use the slug DeFiLlama shows in its own URLs, for example `aave-v3`, `lido` or `curve-dex`. The `project` filter matches that value.

**Why did I get fewer rows than `maxItems`?**
The filters ran first. If `minTvl` and `minApy` together match only 40 pools, the run returns 40 and you are charged for 40.

**What can I export?**
CSV, Excel, JSON and XML from the run page, or JSON straight from the API.

### About Acquisition Automation Co.

We build automation for people buying businesses. The repetitive part of an acquisition search, checking listings, pulling public records, tracking owners and assets, is work a machine should do, so the buyer's time goes into judging deals instead of collecting them.

We add new Actors regularly. If there is a source you need and do not see here, tell us.
