What is MCP?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standardized way for AI applications and agents to connect with external tools and data sources. It allows LLMs like Claude, GPT, GEMINI and others to dynamically discover and use tools to complete tasks.

Using This Actor with AI Agents

1. Install the Apify MCP Server
2. Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop config file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@apify/actors-mcp-server",
        "--actors",
        "YOUR_USERNAME/google-maps-lead-extractor-pro"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop
