## Pricing

from $0.43 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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

### What does NY Fed SOFR and Reference Rates do?

Official New York Fed reference rates: SOFR, EFFR, OBFR, TGCR, BGCR with percentiles, volumes, and averages. Latest snapshot or last-N history from markets.newyorkfed.org. Unofficial; not affiliated with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

**Unofficial.** See disclaimer in Store publication fields.

**Dashboards:** connect **Power BI**, **Tableau**, **Looker Studio**, or **Qlik** to the dataset API. **AI agents:** paste this Actor’s Store page URL into an Apify-capable agent (MCP / Claude / Cursor with Apify).

#### How to run

1. Open this Actor in [Apify Console](https://console.apify.com/).
2. Click **Start** on the prefilled defaults (`maxItems` 5), or edit inputs.
3. Leave `proxyType` on `none` unless needed.
4. Export the dataset or pull via API.

```json
{
    "mode": "latest",
    "rateTypes": [
        "SOFR",
        "EFFR",
        "OBFR",
        "TGCR",
        "BGCR"
    ],
    "lastN": 5,
    "maxItems": 5,
    "proxyType": "none",
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": false
    }
}
```

#### How much does it cost?

**Pay per event (PPE):** Actor start + each **result** row. See the Pricing tab on this Actor’s Store page.

#### Sample output

```json
{
  "rateType": "SOFR",
  "effectiveDate": "2026-09-10",
  "percentRate": 3.62,
  "volumeInBillions": 2921,
  "unit": "percent",

# Actor input Schema

## `mode` (type: `string`):

latest = combined latest snapshot; history = last N observations per selected type.

## `rateTypes` (type: `array`):

Which official reference rates to include.

## `lastN` (type: `integer`):

Observations per type when mode is history.

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

Cap how many rate rows to push.

## `proxyType` (type: `string`):

Leave on none — these official APIs are public. Enable Apify Proxy only if your IP is blocked.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Used only when Proxy is Apify Proxy.

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "mode": "latest",
    "rateTypes": [
        "SOFR",
        "EFFR",
        "OBFR",

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("bakos_bence/ny-fed-reference-rates").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {

echo '{
  "mode": "latest",
  "rateTypes": [
    "SOFR",
    "EFFR",
    "OBFR",
    "TGCR",
    "BGCR"
  ],

apify call bakos_bence/ny-fed-reference-rates --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,bakos_bence/ny-fed-reference-rates"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
