## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

## 🛒 Encuentra24 Marketplace Scraper

Want [Encuentra24](https://www.encuentra24.com/panama-es/marketplace) classified ads in a spreadsheet? This scraper makes it easy.

Use **structured filters** (country, category, keyword, price) — structured filters work better for AI agents — **or** paste an **`input_url`** from Encuentra24 once you've already filtered in the browser. When `input_url` is set it overrides the filters below.

Encuentra24 marketplace covers furniture, appliances, pets, fashion, sports, and more. This actor returns up to 2000 rows per run.

### 💡 Perfect for...

- **Dashboards:** Track a category without paging the site.
- **Market research:** Slice furniture, pets, fashion, or construction ads.
- **Data analysts:** Export structured listing rows with public Encuentra24 URLs.
- **🤖 AI Agents:** Power Claude, Cursor, Codex, the Hermes Agent, and OpenClaw workflows with live Encuentra24 results.
- **📚 RAG Systems:** Feed titles and prices into retrieval pipelines.
- **🔗 AI Workflows:** Plug into LangChain, AutoGPT, CrewAI, and similar stacks.

### ✨ Why you'll love this scraper

- 🌐 **Listing cards:** Title, price, category, location, contact name, and photos.

- **Core:** `id`, `url`, `title`, `description`, `category`
- **Offer:** `price`, `currency`, `condition`, `size`, `color`

## MCP server setup

```json

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).
