An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## Midjourney Automation If you're looking to automate videos instead of images, check out the [Midjourney Video Automation](https://apify.com/igolaizola/midjourney-video-automation?fpr=ig) actor. ### 🎨 What does Midjourney Automation do? Midjourney Automation enables you to automate image generation and upscaling on [Midjourney](https://www.midjourney.com) without manual intervention. With this actor, you can: - 🤖 Process multiple prompts in bulk - 🔄 Automatically upscale generated images - 📊 Handle multiple jobs concurrently - 🕒 Manage random wait times between operations - 📁 Generate an album HTML for easy image browsing and downloading ### 🔑 Prerequisites Before using this actor, you need: 1. An active Midjourney subscription 2. Your Midjourney cookies for authentication 3. The [Cookie-Editor Chrome extension](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/cookie-editor/hlkenndednhfkekhgcdicdfddnkalmdm) ### 🚀 Setup Guide #### Getting Your Midjourney Cookie 1. Install the Cookie-Editor Chrome extension 2. Log in to [www.midjourney.com](https://www.midjourney.com) 3. Click the **Cookie-Editor** extension in your browser. 4. Grant any required permissions 5. Click **Export** to download your cookies as a JSON file. 6. Copy the JSON content and provide it in the `cookies` field when running the scraper. #### Running the Actor 1. Paste your cookies JSON into the actor's `cookies` input field 2. Enter your desired prompts 3. Configure generation options 4. Select a proxy from your country (recommended) 5. Run the actor ### ⚙️ Input Parameters | Parameter | Type | Description | Default | | ------------- | ------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------- | | `cookies` | JSON | Your Midjourney authentication cookies obtained from the Cookie-Editor extension (required) | - | | `prompts` | Array | List of prompts to generate images | - | | `mode` | Select | Generation mode: "relaxed" (queued, no GPU time cost, only available for "Standard Plan" or higher), "fast" (standard speed), or "turbo" (4x faster, 2x GPU cost) | "relaxed" | | `upscale` | Select | Upscaling mode: none, "subtle", or "creative" | none | | `privacy` | Boolean | Enable privacy mode (only available for "Pro Plan" or higher) | false | | `concurrency` | Integer | Number of concurrent jobs | 1 | | `minWait` | Integer | Minimum wait time between operations (seconds) | 5 | | `maxWait` | Integer | Maximum wait time between operations (seconds) | 10 | | `jobTimeout` | Integer | Maximum time to wait for job completion (seconds) | 300 | ### 📋 Output Format The actor provides results in a structured format: ```json [ { "album_url": "https://api.apify.com/v2/key-value-stores/1Ht4z6r0m1OfBqZs1/records/album.html#619775b2-1f53-409e-ad1d-5a8336b138b8_0", "prompt": "Modern residential houses in nature, minimalist and elegant architecture, large glass facades, surrounded by trees, mountains, or lakes, with sunlight streaming through --v 6.1", "url": "https://cdn.midjourney.com/619775b2-1f53-409e-ad1d-5a8336b138b8/0_0.png", "index": 3, "upscaled": true, "job_id": "619775b2-1f53-409e-ad1d-5a8336b138b8", "parent_job_id": "04bbf91d-1afa-480c-853f-b6f8c95b24b9" } ] ``` ### 📸 Accessing Generated Images The actor saves an "album.html" file to the KeyValue store for easy browsing and downloading of generated images. You can access it by: - Clicking any "Album URL" field in the results table - Going to Run > Storage > KeyValueStore and finding the "album.html" file The album interface provides several features: - Filter images by prompt text or other metadata - Select multiple images for batch operations - Open images in new tabs for detailed viewing - Download selected images as a ZIP file Here's an example album showcasing some generated images so you can see how your results will be displayed: [Browse Example Gallery](https://igolaizola.github.io/midjourney-automation/) ### ⚠️ Usage Guidelines and Best Practices #### Account Safety - Automation of Midjourney accounts can result in termination - Only use for batch jobs you would normally do manually - Avoid running the automation 24/7 - Follow Midjourney's terms of service #### Performance Optimization - Start with 1-2 concurrent jobs and adjust based on results - Use proxies from your region for better reliability - Set job timeouts appropriate for your chosen generation mode - Regular cookies updates may be required for long sessions #### General Tips - Test your setup with a small batch of prompts first - Use descriptive prompts for better organization - Monitor success rates and adjust settings as needed - Failed jobs are logged but won't stop the entire process - Privacy mode affects image visibility in your Midjourney profile ### 💳 How much will it cost to use Midjourney Automation? Apify provides you with $5 free usage credits every month on the [Apify Free plan](https://apify.com/pricing). You can try and test Midjourney Automation for free with the Free plan for a limited time. However, if you plan to use it regularly, you should get an Apify subscription. We recommend our [$49/month Personal plan](https://apify.com/pricing) - this plan covers the costs of Midjourney Automation and numerous executions. # Actor input Schema ## `cookies` (type: `array`): Cookies from Export JSON in Cookie-Editor extension ## `prompts` (type: `array`): List of prompts to generate images ## `mode` (type: `string`): Mode to generate images.

Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations). ## OpenAPI specification Download the OpenAPI definition: https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/f4yS7kCREzhhPpp0K/builds/wgU2fYjt6EIRGjHQA/openapi.json
