Tips for best results

• 🔍 Start small — use the prefilled input (search "PEPE", 30 results) for your first run to see what data looks like
• 📦 Batch token lookups — the API supports up to 30 addresses per request, so batch your addresses for efficiency
• ⏰ Schedule recurring runs — set up hourly or daily runs to track token price movements over time
• 🔗 Use the right chain — make sure the "Blockchain" field matches where your token trades (solana, ethereum, base, etc.)
• 💡 Trending mode for alpha — use Trending mode to discover currently promoted tokens across all chains
• 📊 Multiple searches — add multiple search queries to find tokens across different names/symbols in one run
• 💰 Keep costs low — set maxResults to what you actually need; each result is charged individually

Use with AI agents via MCP

DexScreener Scraper is available as a tool for AI assistants that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Add the Apify MCP server to your AI client — this gives you access to all Apify actors, including this one:

Setup for Claude Code

$claude mcp add --transport http apify "https://mcp.apify.com"

Setup for Claude Desktop, Cursor, or VS Code

Add this to your MCP config file:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com"
        }
    }
}

Your AI assistant will use OAuth to authenticate with your Apify account on first use.

Example prompts

Once connected, try asking your AI assistant:

• "Use automation-lab/dexscreener-scraper to find the top 30 PEPE tokens across all chains with their prices and volume"
• "Search DexScreener for trending tokens and show me which ones have the highest 24h volume"
• "Look up the Wrapped SOL token on Solana and tell me its current price, liquidity, and 24h price change"

Is it legal to scrape DexScreener?

DexScreener provides a free public API with no authentication required. This actor uses only the official public API endpoints — it does not scrape the website HTML or bypass any access controls.

Web scraping of publicly available data is generally legal. Always ensure your use case complies with applicable laws and DexScreener's terms of service. Use the data responsibly — for personal analysis, research, or building products that add value.

For more information, see Apify's guide on the legality of web scraping.

FAQ

How fast is DexScreener Scraper? Very fast. Since it uses DexScreener's REST API (pure HTTP, no browser), a typical search returns 30 results in 2-3 seconds. Token lookups with batch addresses are even faster.

How much does it cost to monitor 100 tokens daily? A single run looking up 100 tokens costs approximately $0.105 on the free tier ($0.005 start + 100 × $0.001). Running that daily for a month = ~$3.15. Well within the free $5 credit.

How does this compare to DexScreener's own API? DexScreener's API is free and public — this actor wraps it with Apify platform features: scheduled runs, dataset storage, export to CSV/JSON/Excel, webhooks, and 5,000+ app integrations. You get the same data with automation built in.

Why are some fields null? Not all tokens have complete data on DexScreener. Newer or less popular tokens may lack social links, website URLs, or certain price change timeframes. The actor returns null for missing fields rather than empty strings.

Why did my search return fewer results than expected? DexScreener's search API returns a maximum of 30 results per query. If you need more results for a specific token, try different search terms or use token lookup mode with specific contract addresses.
