Quick start
- Open the Actor page and click Try — it runs with prefilled input.
- Or call it directly:
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/cynix_dev~launch-library-launches/runs" \-H "Content-Type: application/json" \-d '{"mode":"upcoming","limit":10}'
- Records land in the run's default dataset.
Example inputs
Next ten launches:
{ "mode": "upcoming", "limit": 10 }
Past Falcon launches:
{ "mode": "previous", "search": "falcon", "limit": 25 }
A single launch by ID:
{ "mode": "by_id", "search": "4645" }
Use cases
- Launch monitors — schedule a daily run and diff new NET times.
- Space news/aggregators — enrich articles with live launch data.
- Research — historical launch statistics by provider, pad, or orbit.
Pricing
Runs are billed by platform usage only — no per-result charge. A typical 10-launch run costs well under one cent.
