# PPE Migration Auditor — Rental Risk & Event Pricing (`ludoe11/ppe-migration-auditor`) Actor

Audits your own Apify Actors for rental-pricing migration risk ahead of the October 1, 2026 rental sunset. Pulls your real run costs from the Apify API and suggests a pay-per-event price per Actor that preserves your margin — no manual spreadsheet math.

## Pricing

from $50.00 / 1,000 actor-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?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## PPE Migration Auditor

Apify is deprecating its flat-rate rental (monthly subscription) model on **October 1, 2026**.
Actors remaining on rental pricing after the deadline will be migrated to platform compute usage, shifting revenue to fractions of a cent per run.

This Actor connects to your Apify account to audit your published Actors, assess your migration exposure, and calculate margin-preserving Pay-Per-Event (PPE) price points using your real run costs.

***

### Features

- **Risk Classification:** Identifies Actors using deprecated rental models (`HIGH` risk) and pay-per-result models (`MEDIUM` risk).
- **Historical Cost Analysis:** Samples recent successful runs to compute your true average platform compute cost per run.
- **Automated Price Modeling:** Suggests target event prices calibrated to maintain an 80% creator profit margin after compute overhead and Apify fees.
- **Deadline Countdown:** Tracks the remaining days until the October 1, 2026 rental sunset.

***

### Input Parameters

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
| :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
| `apiToken` | String (Secret) | **Required** | Your Apify Personal API token (found in **Settings -> Integrations**). Required to query your private run stats. |
| `actorIds` | Array (Strings) | `[]` | Optional list of specific Actor IDs or slugs (e.g., `username/my-actor`). If omitted, audits all Actors you own. |
| `maxRunsPerActor` | Integer | `20` | Number of recent successful runs to sample when computing average execution cost. |

***

### Output Schema

Each audited Actor outputs a record to the default dataset:

```json
{
  "actorId": "C0tdvDiNO2o8Ig58Q",
  "actorName": "my-scraper",
  "title": "My Production Scraper",
  "pricingModel": "FLAT_PRICE_PER_MONTH",
  "sampledSucceededRuns": 20,
  "averageRunCostUsd": 0.0012,
  "suggestedPpeEventPriceUsd": 0.0015,
  "riskLevel": "HIGH",
  "daysUntilMigrationDeadline": 14,
  "status": "SUCCESS"
}
```

***

### Pricing

- `actor-audited`: **$0.05** per Actor audited ($50.00 per 1,000 items).
- Platform compute included. Zero start fees.

***

### Requirements & Security

- **Permissions:** Auditing run costs requires an API token with read permissions for your account's Actors and Runs.
- **Confidentiality:** The `apiToken` field is marked as a secret and is used strictly in-memory during the run to query the Apify API. It is never logged or stored.
- **Account Ownership:** The Actor only samples runs for Actors owned by the authenticated user.

# Actor input Schema

## `apiToken` (type: `string`):

Your personal Apify API token (found in Console -> Settings -> Integrations). Required to read your Actors and run history.

## `actorIds` (type: `array`):

Leave empty to audit every Actor you own. Otherwise list Actor IDs or username/actor-name slugs.

## `maxRunsPerActor` (type: `integer`):

How many of the most recent successful runs to sample for the average cost estimate.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "actorIds": [],
  "maxRunsPerActor": 20
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `actorsAudited` (type: `string`):

Total number of Actors processed in this audit.

## `riskyActorsCount` (type: `string`):

Number of Actors flagged with HIGH or MEDIUM migration risk.

## `daysUntilMigrationDeadline` (type: `string`):

Days remaining until October 1, 2026.

## `generatedAt` (type: `string`):

ISO timestamp of when the audit was completed.

# 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 '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("ludoe11/ppe-migration-auditor").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);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = {}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("ludoe11/ppe-migration-auditor").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{}' |
apify call ludoe11/ppe-migration-auditor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,ludoe11/ppe-migration-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).
