MCP Server Ignoring Custom Actors Configuration

Open

round14tech opened this issue

When creating a task with custom actors, the MCP server ignores the input and always loads the default actors instead. This issue can be observed in the run logs, which consistently show that only the default actors are being loaded regardless of the custom configuration provided.

Hi, thank you for trying the MCP server.

Unfortunately, running it with a different set of Actors isn’t very straightforward at the moment.
What you need to do is create a new task, go to the Standby settings, and specify the Actors there.

Then, you can start the server using the following URL:

https://USERNAME--actors-mcp-server-task.apify.actor?token=<APIFY_TOKEN>

I’m sorry—there’s no simpler way to do this for now. It’s briefly described here:

I hope it works for you! If not, please let me know. Jiri
