Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## VisionSync Boutique Suite: Explore.org A professional Apify Actor designed to scrape metadata and YouTube stream URLs from Explore.org live cams with full VisionSync V1 enrichment. ### Features - **VisionSync Core Enrichment**: Every result includes high-quality snapshots, real-time weather data at the camera location, and automated stream health checks. - **YouTube Integration**: Automatically extracts and verifies YouTube live stream embeds. - **Metadata Extraction**: Collects structured data including title, description, and geographic coordinates. - **Playwright Powered**: Handles dynamic content and captures stream URLs reliably. ### Monetization & Cost This Actor uses the Pay-Per-Event model. You only pay for successful results. - **Price**: $0.002 per result ($0.20 per 100 results). ### Usage Provide a list of `startUrls` from Explore.org. #### Input Example ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://explore.org/livecams/african-river-wildlife/missouri-river-cam" } ] } ```` #### Output Example (VisionSync V1) ```json { "visionSyncId": "VS-EXP-missouri-river-cam", "url": "https://explore.org/livecams/african-river-wildlife/missouri-river-cam", "title": "Missouri River Cam", "description": "Live view of the Missouri River...", "stream": { "url": "https://www.youtube.com/embed/...", "isLive": true, "lastVerified": "2026-03-18T16:20:00.000Z" }, "snapshotUrl": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/...", "enrichment": { "location": { "lat": 45.94, "lon": -111.49 }, "weather": { "temp": "12°C", "condition": "Clear", "wind": "5 km/h" } }, "provider": "explore-org", "timestamp": "2026-03-18T16:20:00.000Z" } ``` # Actor input Schema ## `startUrls` (type: `array`): List of Explore.org URLs to scrape. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): The proxy configuration for the Actor. ## Actor input object example ```json { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://explore.org/livecams/african-river-wildlife/missouri-river-cam" } ], "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "startUrls": [ { "url": "https://explore.org/livecams/african-river-wildlife/missouri-river-cam" } ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("conversational_kermis/visionsync-explore-org").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); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
