## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Resident Advisor Events Scraper — Lineups & Venues, No Key

Scrape **Resident Advisor (ra.co) electronic music events** into clean JSON — no login, no API key. Filter by city/area and date range and get structured rows with title, date, start time, venue, area, country, artist lineup, editor's pick, and a direct link.

Built for reliability: hits RA's public event feed directly and is health-monitored daily. Output is structured for event calendars, listings sites, and LLM/RAG pipelines.

### ⚡ Quick start

Paste this into the Actor's **Input** (JSON view) and hit **Start**:

```json
{
  "areaId": 13,
  "maxEvents": 200
}
````

`areaId` 13 = London. Find your city's ID in the ra.co URL (e.g. New York = 8, Berlin = 34, Amsterdam = 20).

Each result row looks like:

```json
{
  "id": "2457440",
  "title": "MOTION Every Monday",
  "date": "2026-07-20",
  "startTime": "2026-07-20T23:00:00.000",
  "venue": "XOYO",
  "venueUrl": "https://ra.co/clubs/33592",
  "area": "London",
  "country": "United Kingdom",
  "artists": ["Fifi", "Aletha"],
  "attending": 342,
  "editorPick": null,
  "url": "https://ra.co/events/2457440"
}
```

Or run it from the API:

```
POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/jamhimself~resident-advisor-events-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN
```

### Input options

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `areaId` | integer | RA area (city) ID — London 13, New York 8, Berlin 34, Amsterdam 20 |
| `dateFrom` | string | Earliest date `YYYY-MM-DD` (default today) |
| `dateTo` | string | Latest date `YYYY-MM-DD` (optional) |
| `maxEvents` | integer | Max events to return (default 200) |

### Output fields

Every row includes: `id`, `title`, `date`, `startTime`, `endTime`, `venue`, `venueUrl`, `area`, `country`, `artists`, `attending`, `editorPick`, `flyer`, `url`.

### Use cases

- **Event calendars & listings** — sync upcoming club/festival lineups for any city.
- **Artist & venue tracking** — monitor where artists are playing and what venues are programming.
- **AI agents & RAG** — feed structured event rows into agent pipelines (this Actor is agent-payable).

# Actor input Schema

## `areaId` (type: `integer`):

Resident Advisor area (city) ID. Find it in the ra.co URL: open ra.co/events/<country>/<city> and the area number is in the page — e.g. London = 13, New York = 8, Berlin = 34, Amsterdam = 20.

## `dateFrom` (type: `string`):

Earliest event date. Defaults to today.

## `dateTo` (type: `string`):

Latest event date (optional).

## `maxEvents` (type: `integer`):

Maximum events to return.

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

Proxy settings. Apify Proxy (datacenter) is sufficient — the RA API is public.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "areaId": 13,
  "maxEvents": 200,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `events` (type: `string`):

One row per event: title, date, venue, area, artists, editor's pick, URL.

    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "proxyConfiguration": {
        "useApifyProxy": true
    }
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("jamhimself/resident-advisor-events-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
