## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## 🌲 Linktree Creator, Email & Outbound Link Scraper

> Ultra-fast, automated Linktree scraper. Extract **verified direct booking emails, cross-platform social networks, affiliate storefronts, and complete outbound link catalogs** from Linktree in seconds.

***

### 💡 Why Scrape Linktree?

Over **70% of professional creators, artists, athletes, influencers, and brands** never write their business booking email in their Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube bio text.

Instead, they centralize their manager contacts, brand deal inquiry forms, media kits, and affiliate storefronts behind a **Linktree** (`linktr.ee/username`).

When building influencer outreach lists or creator discovery pipelines, raw bio URLs only give you a Linktree link. This actor solves that bottleneck by visiting every Linktree profile and extracting:

- 📬 **Direct Booking & Inquiry Emails** (from contact buttons, mailto links, and profile bio descriptions).
- 🌐 **Cross-Platform Social Footprint** (YouTube channel, TikTok handle, Instagram profile, Twitter/X, Spotify artist page, Twitch, Discord, Threads).
- 🛍️ **Monetization & Storefront Radar** (Amazon Storefront, LTK, Stan store, Shopify store, Patreon, Gumroad).
- 📋 **Complete Outbound Link Inventory** (Title, destination URL, and link category for every button on the creator's page).

### 🚀 API & Automated Integrations

Trigger runs programmatically via the Apify REST API, Zapier, Make, or webhooks:

```bash
curl --request POST \
  --url "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/automation_studio~linktree-bio-link-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
  --data '{
    "startUrls": [
      "https://linktr.ee/selenagomez",
      "https://linktr.ee/garyvee"
    ],
    "extractAllLinks": true,
    "requireEmail": false
  }'
```

# Actor input Schema

## `startUrls` (type: `array`):

Enter one or more Linktree URLs (e.g. 'https://linktr.ee/selenagomez', 'linktr.ee/garyvee') or handles ('@selenagomez').

## `extractAllLinks` (type: `boolean`):

When enabled, captures every outbound button, product, and affiliate link on the page in addition to emails and social handles.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://linktr.ee/selenagomez",
    "https://linktr.ee/garyvee"
  ]
}' |
apify call automation_studio/linktree-bio-link-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,automation_studio/linktree-bio-link-scraper"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
