## 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).

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

### Public Task Concepts

- Audit Orphan Page Sitemap Link controls on a capped public sample
- Find high-priority Orphan Page Sitemap Link issues before release
- Validate Orphan Page Sitemap Link evidence from supplied pages
- Prioritize Orphan Page Sitemap Link fixes with severity and proof
- Export Orphan Page Sitemap Link QA rows for client review

Orphan Page Sitemap Link Auditor reconciles XML sitemap membership, bounded internal-link discovery, and supplied URL inventories to identify sitemap-only, crawl-only, zero-inlink, noindex, and canonical-conflict candidates.

### What it does

- Fetches real sitemap files, including sitemap indexes, and preserves per-URL `lastmod` values.
- Recursively crawls internal links from public seeds within page/depth/domain limits and calculates inlink counts and crawl depth.
- Accepts raw sitemap XML and link-inventory rows for repeatable reconciliation workflows.
- Detects orphan candidates, sitemap-only URLs, crawl-discovered URLs missing from the sitemap, noindex sitemap entries, and canonical targets absent from the sitemap.

### Reports

The key-value store contains the Markdown audit, full reconciliation CSV, orphan candidates, missing-from-sitemap rows, sitemap-only rows, and crawl-only rows.

### Example input

```json
{
  "sitemapUrls": [
    "https://www.wikipedia.org/"
  ],
  "crawlStartUrls": [
    "https://www.wikipedia.org/"
  ],
  "urlList": [
    "https://www.wikipedia.org/"
  ],
  "rawSitemapXmlInputs": [],
  "linkInventoryRows": [],
  "allowedDomains": "",
  "maxSitemapUrls": 3,
  "maxCrawlPages": 3,
  "maxDepth": 3,
  "checkCanonical": true,
  "checkRobotsIndexable": true,
  "requestDelayMs": 3,
  "timeoutMs": 3
}
```

### Output fields

url, normalizedUrl, inSitemap, discoveredByCrawl, inSuppliedUrlList, internalInlinkCount, crawlDepth, canonicalUrl, robotsIndexable, httpStatus, sitemapLastModified, orphanCandidate, missingFromSitemap, sitemapOnly, issueCode, severity, recommendation

### Cost controls

Use `maxSitemapUrls`, `maxCrawlPages`, `maxDepth`, and `allowedDomains` to bound the audit.

### Limitations

The findings reconcile supplied and observed evidence; they do not guarantee search-engine indexing or update sitemaps and internal links.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call junipr/orphan-page-sitemap-link-auditor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,junipr/orphan-page-sitemap-link-auditor"

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
