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.

Uses Roblox's free public APIs — no authentication or proxy required. ### What you can scrape - **Game metadata**: name, description, creator, genre, visit count, concurrent players, favorites, thumbnails, and game URLs - **Catalog items**: UGC assets with pricing, creator info, and item URLs - **User profiles**: username, display name, bio, and all published games - **Trending games**: top games by current popularity (visits/players) ### Supported modes | Mode | Description | |---|---| | `searchGames` | Search games by keyword (e.g. "Adopt Me", "Bloxburg") | | `byGameId` | Fetch 1–50 specific games by comma-separated universe IDs | | `searchItems` | Search UGC catalog items (hats, accessories, clothing) | | `byUserId` | Fetch a user's profile + all their published games | | `trending` | Browse trending/popular games with no keyword filter | ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `mode` | select | Scrape mode (default: `searchGames`) | | `query` | string | Keyword (modes: searchGames, searchItems) | | `universeIds` | string | Comma-separated universe IDs (mode: byGameId) | | `userId` | integer | Roblox numeric user ID (mode: byUserId) | | `genre` | select | Filter games by genre (All, RPG, Funny, Scary, War, Pirate, Building, Sports, etc.) | | `minVisits` | integer | Only include games with at least N total visits | | `minPlaying` | integer | Only include games with at least N concurrent players | | `maxItems` | integer | Maximum records to emit (default: 50) | #### Example input ```json { "mode": "searchGames", "query": "Adopt Me", "maxItems": 20 } ```` ### Output Each record includes `recordType`, `siteName` = `"Roblox"`, and `scrapedAt` timestamp. #### Game record ```json { "universeId": 189707, "rootPlaceId": 6872265039, "name": "Adopt Me!", "description": "Adopt and raise cute pets...", "creator": { "id": 537413528, "name": "Uplift Games", "type": "Group" }, "playing": 120000, "visits": 35000000000, "maxPlayers": 40, "favoritedCount": 20000000, "genre": "RPG", "isPrivate": false, "isFeatured": true, "created": "2017-07-14T17:11:52.483Z", "updated": "2024-01-15T08:00:00Z", "thumbnailUrl": "https://tr.rbxcdn.com/...", "gameUrl": "https://www.roblox.com/games/6872265039", "recordType": "game", "siteName": "Roblox", "scrapedAt": "2026-05-10T12:00:00+00:00" } ``` #### Catalog item record ```json { "itemId": 9988282, "itemType": "Asset", "assetType": "Hat", "name": "Bloxburg Helmet", "price": 150, "creatorName": "ROBLOX", "creatorType": "User", "itemUrl": "https://www.roblox.com/catalog/9988282", "recordType": "catalogItem", "siteName": "Roblox", "scrapedAt": "2026-05-10T12:00:00+00:00" } ``` ### FAQs **Does this require a Roblox account or API key?** No. All data is fetched from Roblox's public APIs which require no authentication. **What is a universe ID?** The universe ID is Roblox's internal game identifier. You can find it in the URL of the Roblox game page or via the search API results. **Can I filter games by genre?** Yes — use the `genre` select input. Available genres include: All, Tutorial, Funny, Scary, War, Pirate, RPG, Sci-Fi, Building, Sports, Town and City, Fantasy, Adventure, Horror. **How many items can I scrape per run?** Up to 1000 records per run (set via `maxItems`). Roblox's search API returns up to 100 games per page. **What does `minVisits` do?** It filters out games with fewer total visits than the specified threshold. Useful for finding only popular, established games. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): What to scrape. ## `query` (type: `string`): Keyword to search (modes: searchGames, searchItems). ## `universeIds` (type: `string`): Comma-separated Roblox universe IDs (e.g. `189707, 920587236`).
