Introducing OpenAPI schema definition and Apify community forum

Actors now have OpenAPI schema definition

We’re excited to announce that all Apify actors can now be accessed using OpenAPI. The OpenAPI definition makes it easy for users to communicate or integrate the Actors programmatically.

What is OpenAPI schema?

The Apify API lets you interact with Actors programmatically using Python, JavaScript, or HTTP through a standardized OpenAPI interface. Trigger Actors, monitor runs, and retrieve data programmatically. The API makes it simple to integrate Actors into automated workflows.

Why OpenAPI?

As Apify expands its AI agents and Actors, OpenAPI is the backbone for easily integrating Actors into your systems. It simplifies interactions and automation, allowing you to build faster and more reliably.
