Get Actor
https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/alexey~google-lens?token=<YOUR_API_TOKEN>

Actors can be used to scrape web pages, extract data, or automate browser tasks. Use the Google Lens API programmatically via the Apify API.
You can choose from:
You can start Google Lens with the Apify API by sending an HTTP POST request to the Run Actor endpoint. An Actor’s input and its content type can be passed as a payload of the POST request, and additional options can be specified using URL query parameters. The Google Lens is identified within the API by its ID, which is the creator’s username and the name of the Actor.
When the Google Lens run finishes you can list the data from its default dataset (storage) via the API or you can preview the data directly on Apify Console .
