Actor picture

Example Call

apify/example-call

A simple example showing how to call another actor from an actor. Note that this actor doesn't accept any input and doesn't generate any output.

You need to have an Apify account with an API token.

  1. To run the actor from your program externally, copy-paste the code below into your program (based on programming language)

  2. Replace <YOUR_API_TOKEN> with your own token (you can find it here)

const Apify = require('Apify');

Apify.client.setOptions({ token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' });

const run = await Apify.call('apify/example-call', { });

console.log('Actor finished, here is the output:');
console.dir(run.output);
