## 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

Scrape Rumble — the largest alternative video platform — by **keyword search**, **channel feed**, or **single video URL**. No login required. Channel mode returns the richest data in the Store: views, up/down votes, comment counts, **revenue stats**, and channel followers.

### Why this scraper

- **Cheapest full-featured option** — from $1 per 1,000 results (down to $0.40 on paid plans), with **no per-run fee**
- **No authentication** — works on public data only, no cookies or accounts
- **Revenue & engagement stats** — channel mode includes Rumble's own monetization and play metrics that most scrapers miss
- **Three modes in one actor** — replaces separate search/channel/video scrapers

### Modes

| Mode | Input | What it returns |
|---|---|---|
| `search` | `searchQuery` | Search results — title, URL, thumbnail, duration, date, channel (name, URL, verified) |
| `channel` | `channelName` | All channel videos — everything in search **plus** views, likes/dislikes, comment counts, revenue stats, live/short flags, tags, channel followers |
| `video` | `videoUrl` | Single video — title, author, duration, publish date, thumbnails, share/embed URLs |

### Sample output (channel mode)

```json
{
  "video_id": "v7dfffm",

### Technical details

- **Channel mode** reads Rumble's own embedded page data — fast, reliable, and includes platform-native stats (revenue, plays, votes)
- **Search mode** renders Rumble's search page in a real browser; enable the default residential proxy setting for best reliability
- **Video mode** uses Rumble's public embed endpoint — works without any proxy
- **Export:** JSON, CSV, XML, Excel via the Apify dataset
- **Integrations:** REST API, webhooks, Zapier, Make, Airbyte, LangChain

#### FAQ

**Do I need a Rumble account?**
No — everything scraped is public data.

**Why does channel mode show more fields than search?**
Rumble's channel pages embed richer platform data (views, votes, revenue) than its search cards expose. For maximum fields on a known channel, use channel mode; use video mode to enrich specific URLs.

**Search returns nothing — why?**
Rumble protects its search endpoint with Cloudflare. Keep the default residential proxy setting enabled.

# 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({

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();

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "searchQuery": "trump",
  "maxResults": 50,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}' |
apify call brick_joey_yto/rumble-video-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,brick_joey_yto/rumble-video-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).
