## Pricing

from $0.00005 / actor start

This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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

## France Sports Clubs Hub · Emails from 16 Federations

**One click, one spreadsheet-ready dataset** — export **French sports club emails** from **eighteen public federation directories** without running eighteen separate jobs yourself.

**No login. No API key.** Pick **All federations** and **Start**, or choose a single sport. Departments default to **Paris (75)**. Prefer **Île-de-France** and **Only rows with email or phone** for a CRM Try.

#### En français

Un export unique : emails des clubs des 16 fédérations. Pas de login. Paris par défaut, ou **Île-de-France**. Cochez **Uniquement les lignes avec email ou téléphone**. Handball, natation et escalade ont aussi leurs Actors dédiés : [FFHandball](https://apify.com/corent1robert/ffhandball-clubs-scraper), [FFN](https://apify.com/corent1robert/ffn-clubs-scraper), [FFME](https://apify.com/corent1robert/ffme-clubs-scraper).

***

### Who is this for?

| You are… | Typical goal | Suggested setup |
|----------|--------------|-----------------|
| Agency / data team | The France sports club pack in one file | **All federations** + one department first |
| Sales / outbound | Only athletics or only swimming this week | Pick one federation, keep Paris, raise **Max clubs** later |
| Sportswear or equipment brand | Multi-sport prospect list by département | One department, all federations, `maxItems: 0` on a paid plan |
| Data / ops | Scheduled master table | Same inputs on a schedule |

**What you get:** the same rows as the standalone federation Actors, appended into **one hub dataset**, with `federation`, `hub_child_actor` and `hub_child_run_id` so you can trace which export produced each row.

***

### How it works (simple)

1. You choose **All federations** or one sport, plus **departments** (or a region) and **max clubs**.
2. This hub starts the matching **child Actor(s)** on your Apify account (`corent1robert`).
3. The same `departments`, `maxItems` and `onlyWithContact` are passed to every child (regions expand to department codes first).
4. When each child run succeeds, its dataset rows are **copied into this hub’s dataset**.
5. You download **one CSV / Excel / JSON** from the hub run.

***

### Quick start

1. Open this Actor on Apify and click **Try for free** or **Start**.
2. Leave **Federation** on **Athletics only (FFA)** for a first run (or pick another sport / all).
3. Keep **Departments** on **Paris (75)** and **Max clubs** at 20. Leave **Only rows with email or phone** on. Do not pick **All departments** on a smoke run.
4. Click **Start**. Open **Storage → Dataset** when the hub finishes.

### Standalone federation Actors

You can still run each federation alone (same data, no hub merge):

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Notes |
|-------|------|---------|--------|
| `federation` | string | `all` (Try prefill: `ffa`) | `all` or one child key (`ffr`, `ffa`, `ffgolf`, `ffechecs`, `ffgym`, `ffbad`, …) |
| `departments` | array | `["75"]` | Passed through (regions **IDF** / **PACA** / **AURA** expand to codes). `ALL` is nationwide on **every** selected federation — avoid on a first run |
| `onlyWithContact` | boolean | `false` (Try on) | Passed through. Extra keys are ignored by federations that do not filter on contact |
| `maxItems` | integer | `20` | Passed through to each child. **0** = no row ceiling. **Free plan: 20 / child run** |

Paris athletics sample:

```json
{ "federation": "ffa", "departments": ["75"], "onlyWithContact": true, "maxItems": 20 }
```

Eight federations, Paris only, capped:

```json
{ "federation": "all", "departments": ["75"], "maxItems": 20 }
```

***

### Output

Child schemas differ by federation. The hub copies each row as-is and adds:

| Field | Meaning |
|-------|---------|
| `federation` | Hub key (`ffa`, `ffn`, …) |
| `hub_child_actor` | Store id of the child Actor |
| `hub_child_run_id` | Child run id |

Download JSON, CSV or Excel from the hub dataset. Use the **Outreach CRM** view when you mainly need email and phone.

***

### Pricing and cost

This hub is **pay-per-event**:

| Event | What you pay |
|-------|----------------|
| `apify-actor-start` | About **$0.00005** per GB of hub memory (default 1 GB → one start event) |
| Copied dataset rows | **$0** on the hub — we do not bill again for merging |

**On top of the hub start**, Apify also bills **each child Actor run** (compute and that child’s PPE, if any). An **All federations** job is **1 hub run + 16 child runs**. Standalone PPE on FFA, FFN, etc. still applies when those Actors charge per club. Football (FFF) also uses Apify Unblocker on the child run.

**Free plan:** 20 clubs per child run.

***

### Good to know

- **Timeouts:** allow several hours when running all eighteen federations with `maxItems: 0` or nationwide departments.
- **Failures:** if one federation run fails, the hub logs it and continues with the remaining sports; check **RUN\_LOG** for details.
- Use public data in line with each federation’s terms and **GDPR**.

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,corent1robert/france-sports-clubs-hub"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
