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.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## RapidAPI Marketplace API Turn the entire RapidAPI marketplace into structured data. This API searches and extracts public API listings from RapidAPI, returning pricing, categories, popularity and reliability metrics, publisher details, billing plans and ratings. No RapidAPI account, login, or key required. It is built as a low-cost, pay-per-result loss leader, one of the cheapest ways on Apify to pull marketplace data for API discovery, market research, and competitive intelligence. ### What it does - Search the marketplace by one or many keywords and collect every matching API. - Filter by category and sort by relevance, trending, last updated, or alphabetical. - Pull rich detail per API: full billing plans, subscriber counts, ratings, readme docs, and website. - Extract directly from RapidAPI API URLs or whole collection pages. ### What you can extract | Field | Description | |-------|-------------| | name / title | API name and display title | | description / longDescription | Short and full descriptions | | pricing | Pricing model (FREE, FREEMIUM, PAID) | | category | Primary marketplace category | | popularityScore | RapidAPI popularity score (0-10) | | avgLatency | Average response latency in ms | | avgServiceLevel / avgSuccessRate | Reliability metrics (%) | | ratingScore / ratingVotes | User rating and vote count (detailed) | | subscriptionsCount | Number of subscribers (detailed) | | publisher / publisherUsername | Who publishes the API | | billingPlans | Full subscription plans with prices and quotas (detailed) | | websiteUrl | Publisher website (detailed) | | readme | API documentation readme (detailed) | | url | Public RapidAPI page link | ### Use cases - API discovery: find every API matching a keyword or category. - Market research: analyze pricing models and popularity across thousands of APIs. - Competitive intelligence: track which APIs lead your niche and how they price. - Lead generation: build a database of API publishers and their websites. - Trend analysis: monitor trending and recently updated APIs over time. ### Input | Field | Type | Description | |-------|------|-------------| | searchTerms | array | Keywords to search, one per line. Empty plus empty Listing URLs returns all APIs. | | category | string | Optional single category filter (for example Data, Finance, Weather). | | sortBy | select | Relevance, Trending, Last updated, or Alphabetical. | | order | select | Ascending or Descending. | | maxResults | integer | Max results per search term (up to 1000). | | detailedInfo | boolean | Enrich each result with full detail by fetching its API page. | | listingUrls | array | RapidAPI API or collection URLs to extract directly (always detailed). | #### Example input ```json { "searchTerms": ["linkedin", "weather"], "category": "Data", "sortBy": "ByTrending", "order": "DESC", "maxResults": 50, "detailedInfo": false } ```` ### Pricing This Actor uses pay-per-result pricing and is deliberately priced as a loss leader, among the cheapest options on Apify for marketplace data: - Basic listing result: 0.0001 USD each. - Detailed API result: 0.0005 USD each (an extra page fetch per API for billing plans, ratings, readme, and subscriber counts). You only pay for results actually returned. Set a run budget and the Actor stops cleanly when the budget is reached. ### How to get started 1. Add your search terms or listing URLs. 2. Click Start. Results stream to the dataset as they are found. 3. Export as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or pull them through the Apify API.

It does not require or use a RapidAPI account. - The marketplace caps a single search at 1000 results. Use multiple search terms to gather more. - Be a good citizen: scrape responsibly and respect RapidAPI's terms. Last Updated: 2026.06.28 # Actor input Schema ## `searchTerms` (type: `array`): Keywords to search the RapidAPI marketplace for, one per line (for example: linkedin, weather, translation). Each term is searched separately. Leave this and Listing URLs empty to return all marketplace APIs. ## `category` (type: `string`): Optional. Restrict search results to a single marketplace category. Use the exact category name as shown on RapidAPI, for example: Data, Business, Tools, Finance, Social, eCommerce, Advertising, Cybersecurity, Travel, Sports, Weather, Translation, Jobs, News, Media, Education, Entertainment, Health, Email, Visual Recognition. Leave empty for all categories. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): How to sort search results. ## `order` (type: `string`): Sort direction for the chosen sort field. ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of API listings to return for each search term. The marketplace caps a single search at 1000 results; use multiple search terms to gather more. ## `detailedInfo` (type: `boolean`): When enabled, each search result is enriched with full detail (billing plans, rating, readme, subscriber count, website and long description) by fetching its API page. This is slower and billed at the higher per-detail rate. Listing URLs below always return detailed info. ## `listingUrls` (type: `array`): Optional. RapidAPI URLs to extract directly, one per line. Accepts API pages (https://rapidapi.com/{publisher}/api/{api}) and collection pages (https://rapidapi.com/collection/{name}). Listing URLs always return detailed info. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchTerms": [ "weather" ], "sortBy": "ByRelevance", "order": "ASC", "maxResults": 25, "detailedInfo": false } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `allResults` (type: `string`): Every API listing and detail row from this run. ## `overview` (type: `string`): Key columns per API (name, pricing, category, popularity, publisher, link). # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "searchTerms": [ "weather" ], "maxResults": 25 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("johnvc/rapidapi-marketplace-api").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(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
