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.

Built for traders, analysts, and developers who need clean per-coin data without writing their own API integration or handling pagination and rate limits by hand. ### Why this scraper - Reads the official CoinPaprika REST API directly, combining `/coins/{id}` metadata and `/tickers` market data into a single flat row per coin, so you don't need two separate calls or a join step. - Covers more distinct fields than typical single-purpose scrapers in one record — GitHub stars, Twitter followers, ATH date, and per-period % change (1h/24h/7d/30d/1y) alongside standard price and supply data. - Priced at $0.00005 per run, among the lowest on the store, regardless of how many coins or tickers are fetched in that run. ### Output fields | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | coin\_id | string | CoinPaprika coin id, e.g. btc-bitcoin | | name | string | Coin name | | symbol | string | Ticker symbol | | rank | integer | Market cap rank | | type | string | coin or token | | is\_active | boolean | Whether the coin is actively tracked | | price\_usd | number | Current price in USD | | market\_cap\_usd | number | Market capitalization in USD | | volume\_24h\_usd | number | 24h trading volume in USD | | percent\_change\_1h | number | Price change percent over 1 hour | | percent\_change\_24h | number | Price change percent over 24 hours | | percent\_change\_7d | number | Price change percent over 7 days | | percent\_change\_30d | number | Price change percent over 30 days | | percent\_change\_1y | number | Price change percent over 1 year | | ath\_price\_usd | number | All-time high price in USD | | ath\_date | string | Date of all-time high price | | circulating\_supply | number | Circulating supply of the coin | | total\_supply | number | Total supply of the coin | | max\_supply | number | Maximum possible supply of the coin | | description | string | Short project description, if available | | website | string | Primary project website URL | | twitter\_followers | integer | Twitter follower count, if available | | github\_stars | integer | GitHub star count, if available | | last\_updated | string | Timestamp of the underlying data | ### Input ```json { "startUrls": [{ "url": "https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/coins/btc-bitcoin" }], "maxItems": 50 } ``` ### Output ```json { "coin_id": "btc-bitcoin", "name": "Bitcoin", "symbol": "BTC", "rank": 1, "type": "coin", "is_active": true, "price_usd": null, "market_cap_usd": null, "volume_24h_usd": null, "percent_change_1h": null, "percent_change_24h": null, "percent_change_7d": null, "percent_change_30d": null, "percent_change_1y": null, "ath_price_usd": null, "ath_date": "", "circulating_supply": null, "total_supply": null, "max_supply": null, "description": "Bitcoin (BTC) is a decentralized digital currency that enables peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries, using blockchain technology to ensure security and transparency.

A typical run covering a handful of coins or up to 50 tickers costs $0.00005 total. ### Use cases - Feeding a crypto dashboard or spreadsheet with live price, market cap, and % change data for a fixed watchlist of coins. - Backtesting or research scripts that need historical-style snapshots of ATH price/date alongside current supply figures. - Screening projects by developer and community activity (GitHub stars, Twitter followers) combined with market data in one pass. # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): Pages to export. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Stop after this many records. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/coins/btc-bitcoin" }, { "url": "https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/coins/eth-ethereum" }, { "url": "https://api.coinpaprika.com/v1/tickers?limit=50" } ], "maxItems": 50 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): One structured record per input URL. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
