## Pricing

from $4.90 / 1,000 domain auditeds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.

## 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.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).

### Fixed-Inclusive PPE Pricing

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. Event prices include Apify platform usage; users are not expected to pay a separate platform-usage pass-through charge for the configured pricing model.

- Tier: W1 — Web/domain audit
- Primary event: `domain-audited` at $0.00490 base
- Default max charge: $10.00
- Store discounts: FREE/BRONZE base, SILVER discounted, GOLD deepest approved discount

Event set:

- `actor-start`: base $0.00500, GOLD $0.00400. DKIM Record Checker: charged when actor start is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `domain-audited`: base $0.00490, GOLD $0.00392. DKIM Record Checker: charged when domain audited is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `record-extracted`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. DKIM Record Checker: charged when record extracted is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `finding-emitted`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. DKIM Record Checker: charged when finding emitted is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `audit-report-generated`: base $0.05000, GOLD $0.04000. DKIM Record Checker: charged when audit report generated is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.

### Public Task Concepts

- Audit public URLs for DKIM Record Checker issues
- Find DKIM Record Checker problems across a website
- Generate a technical DKIM Record Checker report
- Audit dkim issues across supplied public inputs
- Extract evidence-backed dkim rows for client QA

### What It Does

Check DKIM selectors and TXT records for presence, syntax, key hints, and deployment issues.

Check DKIM selectors and TXT records for presence, syntax, key hints, and deployment issues. Use it to find crawlability, indexability, security, metadata, and page-quality issues with evidence-backed rows and audit reports.

### What It Does Not Do

- It does not bypass authentication, access private systems, or perform invasive security testing.
- It does not make unbounded crawls or unbounded external requests.
- It does not replace a full compliance, legal, or security assessment.
- It does not publish itself or change live Apify Store settings; release actions stay behind the repository scheduler and cloud replay gates.

### Input Fields

- `inputItems`
- `domains`
- `urls`
- `maxItems`
- `maxDomains`
- `timeoutMs`
- `includeReport`
- `includeSummary`
- `strictMode`
- `fixtureMode`
- `maxChargeUsd`
- `URLs`

### Example Input

```json
{
  "maxItems": 5,
  "maxDomains": 5,
  "timeoutMs": 2500,
  "includeReport": true,
  "includeSummary": true,
  "strictMode": true,
  "maxChargeUsd": 1,
  "domains": [
    {
      "domain": "example.com",
      "selector": "default",
      "recordRaw": "v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=MIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8A"
    }
  ]
}
````

### Output Fields

- `domain`
- `selector`
- `recordFound`
- `recordRaw`
- `versionValid`
- `keyType`
- `publicKeyPresent`
- `keyLengthHint`
- `issues`

### Cost Controls

- Start with the tiny example input.
- Keep caps conservative: maxItems, maxDomains, timeoutMs, includeReport, includeSummary, maxChargeUsd.
- Keep pass-through usage set to OFF unless a future live cost review requires a change.
- Generate reports only when the report event is configured and budget allows it.

### Public Task Examples

#### Audit public URLs for DKIM Record Checker issues

- Search intent: audit public urls for dkim record checker issues
- Expected output: Dataset rows and summary artifacts for DKIM Record Checker.

#### Find DKIM Record Checker problems across a website

- Search intent: find dkim record checker problems across a website
- Expected output: Dataset rows and summary artifacts for DKIM Record Checker.

#### Generate a technical DKIM Record Checker report

- Search intent: generate a technical dkim record checker report
- Expected output: Dataset rows and summary artifacts for DKIM Record Checker.

### Limitations

- Results depend on the supplied records, fixture data, or public DNS/HTTP signals available to the actor.
- Network and DNS results can differ by resolver, region, CDN, or runtime environment.
- Recommendations are operational guidance and should be reviewed before production changes.

### FAQ

#### What should I run first?

Use the bundled tiny input or a single low-risk domain/record before expanding caps.

#### Does this actor require credentials?

No credentials are required for the default bounded workflow.

#### How is billing protected?

Paid dataset rows are emitted only after the configured PPE guard accepts the relevant event charge.
