## 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.

### Pay-Per-Event 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: `page-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. Schema Org Validation Auditor: charged when actor start is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `page-audited`: base $0.00490, GOLD $0.00392. Schema Org Validation Auditor: charged when page audited is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `rule-parsed`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. Schema Org Validation Auditor: charged when rule parsed is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.
- `finding-emitted`: base $0.00372, GOLD $0.00298. Schema Org Validation Auditor: 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. Schema Org Validation Auditor: charged when audit report generated is completed. The price includes Apify platform usage; no separate usage pass-through is intended.

### Public Task Concepts

- Audit Schema.org Validation controls on a capped public sample
- Find high-priority Schema.org Validation issues before release
- Validate Schema.org Validation evidence from supplied pages
- Prioritize Schema.org Validation fixes with severity and proof
- Export Schema.org Validation QA rows for client review

Audit Schema.org JSON-LD from pages, HTML, or supplied JSON for missing fields, duplicate entities, URL problems, and quality warnings.

### Inputs

This actor accepts the locked fields for actor 252: startUrls, htmlInputs, jsonLdInputs, allowedDomains, schemaTypes, ruleProfile, includeRecommendedFields, checkUrlFields, checkDuplicateEntities, includeEvidence, maxPages, timeoutMs. URL and sitemap inputs use production fetch paths; supplied HTML, JSON, header, or XML records are offline inputs for controlled runs.

### Output

Dataset rows use the approved fields: sourceUrl, schemaType, entityName, ruleId, severity, fieldPath, expected, actual, issueCode, recommendation, entityIndex, duplicateGroupId, urlCheckStatus, evidenceSnippet, passed. The actor also writes these local report artifacts: schema-org-validation-audit.md, schema-issues.csv, schema-quality-scorecard.json, duplicate-schema-entities.csv, schema-url-check-results.json.

### Public source provenance

Bounded Schema.org entities from Apple’s public homepage at https://www.apple.com/, observed 2026-07-12. Diagnostic mutations are labeled controlled copies and are not attributed to Apple’s live page.

### Local run

```bash
npm test
APIFY_LOCAL_STORAGE_DIR=storage CRAWLEE_STORAGE_DIR=storage npm run smoke
```

### Billing and cost controls

This actor uses pay-per-event pricing. It charges `actor-start`, then `page-audited` before each dataset row, and `audit-report-generated` before report artifacts. `maxChargeUsd` is enforced locally and in Apify runs; when the limit is reached, uncharged rows and reports are withheld. Platform usage pass-through remains off.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call junipr/schema-org-validation-auditor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,junipr/schema-org-validation-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).
