## 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.

Someone on your team drops a `fathom.video/share/...` link in Slack after a call. **Fathom Transcript Exporter** turns that link into structured data: the full transcript with speaker names and timestamps, meeting metadata, and action items, ready to pipe into your CRM, spreadsheet, or automation tool.

### 🔍 What does Fathom Transcript Exporter do?

This Actor takes one or more public [Fathom.video](https://fathom.video) share links and pulls out the transcript, meeting details, and action items Fathom already generated for that call. It talks to Fathom's own share-link endpoints directly, so it runs fast and does not need a browser, a Fathom account, or an API key.

You get back, per meeting:

- The full transcript, with speaker names and timestamps, in both formatted and plain-text form.
- Meeting metadata: title, topic, host email, duration, start time, and call state.
- Action items, when Fathom generated any for that specific call.
- Reference links to the video and audio recording (this Actor does not download or re-host media).

One honest limitation: Fathom's AI-generated meeting summary is not available through a public share link without a Fathom account. We checked. If Fathom exposes it publicly in the future, this Actor will add it. Until then, it ships transcripts and action items only, never a fake or empty summary field standing in for one.

### 🤔 Why use Fathom Transcript Exporter?

- **I am a sales ops manager** looking to pull transcripts from Fathom links reps and prospects share with me, in order to log call notes into our CRM without copying and pasting.
- **I am a customer success lead** looking to batch-export action items from a week of onboarding calls, in order to follow up with customers before anything slips through.
- **I am an agency VA** looking to process client call recaps in bulk, in order to hand back clean transcripts and next steps without opening each link by hand.
- **I am a RevOps engineer** looking to feed Fathom transcripts into Zapier, Make, or n8n, in order to auto-populate deal notes the moment a call link lands in Slack.

### 📥 Input

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `shareUrls` | array of strings | No | Public Fathom share links to export, for example `https://fathom.video/share/AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOp`. Each link produces one dataset item. |

| `requestDelayMs` | integer | No | Pause between processing each link, in milliseconds. Defaults to 500. |

### 💡 Tips and limitations

- This Actor only works on public Fathom share links (`fathom.video/share/...`). It cannot access private recordings, your own Fathom workspace, or calls behind a login.
- Action items only come back when Fathom actually generated them for that call. If a call has none, `actionItemsAvailable` is `false` and the action item fields are empty, never filled in with a guess.
- There is no AI-generated meeting summary field. Fathom does not expose one through a public share link without an account, and this Actor never fabricates one to fill the gap.
- Set `requestDelayMs` higher if you are processing a very large batch of links back to back, as a courtesy to Fathom's servers.

### ❓ FAQ

##### Does this need my Fathom account or API key?

No. This Actor only reads public share links (`fathom.video/share/...`) that anyone with the link can already open in a browser. It never asks for a Fathom login, email, or API key.

##### Can it get transcripts from calls I don't have a share link for?

No. You need the public share link for each meeting. This Actor cannot browse or search your Fathom workspace, only export links you already have.

##### Why is `actionItemsAvailable` sometimes false?

Fathom only generates action items for some calls. When a call has none, Fathom's own action items endpoint reports nothing back, and this Actor reflects that honestly instead of inventing placeholder items.

##### Does it include an AI meeting summary?

Not currently. Fathom's AI summary is not reachable through a public, unauthenticated share link. This Actor exports the real transcript and action items instead of shipping a fake or empty summary field.

# Actor input Schema

## `shareUrls` (type: `array`):

Public Fathom.video meeting share links, e.g. https://fathom.video/share/AbCdEfGhIjKlMnOp. Paste one or more links someone sent you — no Fathom account or API key required.

## `includeActionItems` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch each call's action items in addition to the transcript. Fathom only generates action items for some calls — when a call has none, actionItemsAvailable is set to false rather than a fabricated empty list.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Caps how many of the provided share links are processed in one run.

## `requestDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Pause between processing each share link, to stay well within polite request rates. No anti-bot protection was observed on Fathom's share endpoints during testing, so this is a courtesy default, not a workaround.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy configuration. Fathom's public share endpoints showed no anti-bot signals during testing (plain requests succeeded with no proxy at all), so Apify's default datacenter proxy is more than sufficient.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "shareUrls": [

  "maxItems": 50,
  "requestDelayMs": 500,
