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.

The URL will show the format: `ra.co/events/gb/london`. Use `london` as the city and `gb` as the country code. **What artist name format should I use?**\ Use the slug from the RA URL. For `https://ra.co/artists/aphex-twin`, use `aphex-twin`. You can also try the artist's full name. **Can I filter events by date range?**\ Yes. Use `dateFrom` and `dateTo` fields in `YYYY-MM-DD` format. **How many events can I get per run?**\ Up to 200 events per run. For larger volumes, consider multiple runs with different date ranges. **What if a city returns no results?**\ Make sure the city slug matches RA's format (e.g., `new-york` not `newyork`). Some smaller cities may have few or no upcoming events. **Does this work for all RA regions?**\ Yes. RA covers 130+ countries. This scraper supports 35 of the most active markets via the country code selector. ### Data Source Data is sourced directly from [Resident Advisor's](https://ra.co) internal GraphQL API which powers their public website.
