## 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).

### Call Confidence & Provenance

Every number now carries the evidence behind it, so a list can be triaged before
anyone starts dialling.

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `confidence` | 0-100: how likely this is a genuine, correctly read business number |
| `confidenceBand` | `high` (80+), `good` (60-79), `medium` (40-59), `low` (<40) |
| `contextReason` | Why it was accepted - `link:tel_uri`, `positive_label:whatsapp`, `international_format`, `no_label`, ... |
| `contextWindow` | The wording printed either side of the number on the page |
| `foundBy` | `tel_uri`, `wa.me`, `api.whatsapp`, `telegram`, `signal`, `viber` or `matcher` |
| `foundIn` | Which text the number appeared in |
| `businessName` | The business the listing is about, read from its headline |
| `websiteDomain` | The site the number was published on |
| `category` | Broad industry tag - `industrial`, `health`, `food`, `professional`, ... |
| `scrapedAt` | UTC timestamp, so you know how fresh the row is |

A number that also appears inside a click-to-call or click-to-chat link on the
same page is the most reliable case there is, and scores highest.

**Inputs**

- **Minimum confidence** - drop rows below a score. `0` keeps everything.
- **Surrounding text to keep** - how much context to record per number (20-200 chars).

`category` is left blank rather than guessed when the wording is too generic to
place the business, and `businessName` falls back to the leading part of the
headline when no company name is recognisable.

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Enter keywords to search for (e.g., 'Target Keyword').

## `location` (type: `string`):

Filter by location (e.g., 'London', 'California'). Leave empty for global search.

## `country` (type: `string`):

Select the country to target for phone numbers.

## `maxPhoneNumbers` (type: `integer`):

Stop scraping after this many phone numbers are found. Setting a higher limit extends the scraping duration.

## `minLeadScore` (type: `integer`):

Drop any contact whose Lead Score (0-100) falls below this. Leave at 0 for no filter.

## `minConfidence` (type: `integer`):

Drop any number scoring below this (0-100). The score reflects how clearly the number was labelled as a phone number, whether the digits form a valid number, and whether it came from a click-to-call or chat link. Leave at 0 for no filter.

## `contextChars` (type: `integer`):

How many characters of the wording either side of the number to keep in the Surrounding text column, so you can judge a number without opening the page.
