## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. 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.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).

# README

## Crypto Market Data — Live Prices & Market Cap

Live crypto prices, market cap, volume and 24h stats from the **CoinGecko public
API — no API key required.** One clean, structured dataset row per coin, with an
optional 7-day price sparkline.

Built for **trading bots, quant researchers, portfolio trackers, and AI agents**
that need reliable crypto market data without wiring up a data provider.

### Features

- 🏆 **Top coins by market cap** — or volume, CoinGecko rank, or any explicit coin list.
- 📈 **Rich 24h stats** — price, market cap, rank, volume, high/low, supply, ATH/ATL.
- 🕯️ **Price change windows** — 1h / 24h / 7d (and 14d / 30d / 1y on request).
- ✨ **7d sparkline** — optional price history array per coin.
- 💰 **Pay-per-event** — charged once per coin returned.

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `vsCurrency` | string | Quote currency (default `usd`). |
| `ids` | string\[] | Specific CoinGecko coin ids. Empty = top-N. |
| `topN` | integer | Coins in auto mode (1–250, default 20). |
| `order` | string | `market_cap_desc` | `volume_desc` | `gecko_desc` | `id_asc` … |
| `priceChangePercentages` | string | Comma windows, e.g. `1h,24h,7d`. |
| `includeSparkline` | boolean | Attach 7-day price history. |
| `proxy` | object | Optional Apify proxy. |

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "vsCurrency": "usd",
  "ids": []
}' |
apify call alleserojje/crypto-market-data --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {

    }
}
```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
