## 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.

# README

## Events Scraper – Eventbrite, Meetup & Luma

Upcoming events in a city, from Eventbrite, Meetup and Luma, in one table. Each row has the start time in UTC
(plus the event's own time zone), venue and address, whether it's in person, online or hybrid, the organizer, and
price and attendance where the site shows them. Events posted on more than one site appear once.

### What data can I get?

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| `title`, `url` | `AI Builders Night`, link to the event page |
| `startAt`, `endAt`, `timezone` | `2026-09-15T22:00:00.000Z`, `America/New_York` |
| `attendance` | `in-person`, `online` or `hybrid` |
| `venueName`, `address`, `city`, `region`, `country` | `Elsewhere - The Rooftop`, …, `Brooklyn`, `NY`, `US` |
| `latitude`, `longitude` | venue coordinates when the site has them |
| `organizer`, `organizerUrl` | the group, company or calendar running it |
| `isFree`, `price`, `currency` | `false`, `30`, `SGD` (Luma) |
| `attendees`, `spotsRemaining` | `399`, `21` (Luma) |
| `category`, `tags` | `Business & Professional` (Eventbrite) |
| `source`, `sourceName`, `description`, `imageUrl` | |

Price and attendance come from Luma. Eventbrite's search results don't include ticket prices, so those stay empty
for Eventbrite rows.

### How much does it cost?

**$2 per 1,000 events.** You pay only for events delivered. A weekly digest of 200 events in one city costs $0.40.

### How do I use it?

1. Type a city: `London`, `New York`, `Singapore`, `Berlin, Germany`, or `online`.
2. Add keywords if you want a topic (`ai`, `startup`, `design`), and a window like "starts within 14 days".
3. Run, then download JSON, CSV or Excel, or call the API. Events come soonest first.

```json
{ "location": "London", "keywords": ["ai", "founders"], "startsWithinDays": 14, "maxItems": 300 }
```

### How do I get a weekly events digest?

Turn on **Only new events** and schedule the Actor weekly. Each run returns only events you haven't received
before, so you pay once per event.

### How does the city lookup work?

The city is looked up once per run on OpenStreetMap to get its country, US state and coordinates. Meetup needs
the country (and the state for US cities) to search the right place, and Luma lists events for its own city pages,
so the Actor picks the nearest one within 80 km. If Luma has no page near your city, the run uses Eventbrite and
Meetup only.

### FAQ

**Is personal data included?** No. Luma shows individual hosts on each event; only the organizing calendar is kept.
Meetup organizers are groups, Eventbrite organizers are businesses.

**Why does Meetup return fewer events?** Its search page lists about 20–30 events per keyword. Add more keywords to
cover more topics.

**Do I need a proxy?** No. It runs at 256 MB without one.

A city like 'London', 'New York', 'Singapore' or 'Berlin, Germany'. Use 'online' for virtual events.

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Topics to search for, e.g. 'ai', 'startup', 'design'. Eventbrite and Meetup search each keyword; Luma events are matched on title, organizer and description. Empty returns all upcoming events.

## `sources` (type: `array`):

## `startsWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Add the event description as plain text.

## `onlyNewEvents` (type: `boolean`):

Return only events you have not received in earlier runs of this Actor. Turn on for a scheduled weekly digest so you never pay twice for the same event.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many events across all sites, soonest first. You are only charged per event delivered.

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).
