What you can do with it

Developer lead generation - find maintainers and companies building in your space.
Technology trend research - track adoption by language, topic or star growth.
Competitive intelligence - monitor a competitor's public repos and release cadence.
Dependency and licence auditing - pull licence data across many repos at once.
Feed an AI agent - structured repo metadata with no HTML parsing.

Input

Every field is optional. Run it with no configuration and it returns useful data straight away.

Field	Type	Description
`search`	string	GitHub search syntax, e.g. 'stars:>1000 language:python' or 'topic:machine-learning pushed:>2026-01-01'.
`sort`	string	One of: stars, forks, updated. Default `stars`.
`maxItems`	integer	How many repos to return. GitHub caps any search at 1000 results. Default `200`.
`token`	string	Anonymous access is limited to 60 requests/hour. A personal access token raises this to 5,000/hour. Leave empty for small runs.

Output

Flat JSON records, exportable as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML. Fields the source does not publish come back as null rather than being omitted, so your schema stays stable between runs.

Pricing

Pay per result. You are charged only for records actually delivered - a run that matches nothing costs nothing.

Keeping it fresh

Use Apify Schedules to run this on a timer and your dataset stays current without you touching it. Add a webhook to push new records straight into your database, Google Sheet or Slack channel.

Reliability

This reads the source's own public API - no logins, no bot circumvention. That is a deliberate choice: actors that depend on defeating bot protection break without warning. This one does not.
