# Influencer Change Monitor (`mambalabs/creator-change-monitor`) Actor

Rechecks a saved list of creators and returns one row per change since the last run: follower milestone, newsletter added, new product, new bio link, new manager. Unchanged creators return nothing. Contributes its public rows to a shared creator pool, on by default.

## Pricing

from $8.00 / 1,000 creator recheckeds

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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

### 📈 What can Influencer Change Monitor do?

A saved creator list in, changes since the last run out. One row per change: a follower milestone crossed (1K, 5K, 10K, 25K, 50K, 100K, 250K, 500K, 1M and up, in either direction), a newsletter added, a new product (a sells flag turned true), a new bio link, a new manager. Unchanged creators return nothing, so a run's row count is its change count. The first run for a list returns one `first_seen` row per creator, the baseline later runs diff against.

State lives in a named key value store on your account (`creator-change-monitor-state`, one key per `list_name`), so a run with the same `list_name` and handles next week compares against this week.

Bought by newsletter and creator tool companies watching a target list for the moment a creator adds a newsletter or a product, brand partnership teams tracking milestones, and talent teams watching for a new manager.

> 🚫 **This is not a profile scraper.** Unchanged creators return nothing, so a run's row count is its change count. To read a list once, use the Influencer Profile Scraper; to watch it week over week, use this.

### 💡 Why use Influencer Change Monitor?

#### 🧭 One route per platform, measured before the price was set

Five public profiles per platform, read at 1, 2, 3, and 5 in flight. USD per profile is transfer at the account's datacenter rate ($0.20 per GB) or residential rate ($8.00 per GB) plus an estimated compute share (1 GB, wall seconds over 3,600, at $0.30 per compute unit). The default concurrency sits below the point where rows started dropping, or two below the largest wave tested when nothing dropped.

| Platform | Route | Fields returned | Per profile | Ok of 5 at 1, 2, 3, 5 | Default concurrency |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| TikTok | Profile page rehydration JSON over datacenter; one residential retry on a block | name, followers (exact from statsV2), following, video count, engagement (lifetime likes per video over followers), verified, bio, bio link, business email from the bio | 372 KB, 1.5 to 3.0 s, $0.00007 (a residential recovery costs $0.0030) | 5, 5, 5, 5 minus one block per wave at 5 | 3 |
| Instagram | Profile embed widget over datacenter (counts, name, verified, 6 recent posts); bio, bio link, and following from `web_profile_info` on about 1 in 4 datacenter attempts, otherwise from the profile page over residential when `escalate_on_block` is on (event `instagram-bio-fetch`, $0.010, only when that page came back readable) | name, followers (exact), post count, verified, private flag, engagement (median likes plus comments of recent posts over followers), bio, bio link, business email from the bio | embed 303 KB and $0.00006; residential bio page 720 to 830 KB, up to $0.0066 by decompressed bytes and $0.0012 by the platform's metered transfer (run o6u6d7x7zfElI9WQm, 2026-09-22); the residential page ran on 7 of 10 reads on 2026-09-22 and read on 6 | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 4 |
| YouTube | `/@handle/about` page `ytInitialData` over datacenter; innertube fallback; residential only after every datacenter route blocks | name, subscribers (rounded by YouTube), video count, description, channel links, country (platform region), verified, engagement (average recent views over subscribers) | 2.2 MB, 2.0 s, $0.0005 | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 3 |
| Threads | Public profile page Relay payload over datacenter; residential only on a block signature | name, followers (exact), bio, bio link, verified, business email from the bio | 0.93 MB, 5.0 s, $0.0003 | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 3 |
| Pinterest | Profile page `__PWS_INITIAL_PROPS__` over datacenter; residential retry on a real block | name, followers, following, pin count, verified merchant, about, website, location, business email, other social profiles | 1.39 MB, 1.8 to 3.0 s, $0.0003 | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 3 |
| Twitch | Public GQL endpoint with the site's own web client id over datacenter; channel page JSON-LD fallback; your own Helix client id and app token when supplied | display name, followers, video count, partner flag, description, social links from the channel panels, business email in the description | 1.2 KB, 1.2 to 1.6 s, under $0.00001 | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 3 |
| Podcast | iTunes lookup plus the RSS feed, direct (no proxy bytes); Spotify show page over datacenter | show name, episode count, description, site link, owner email from the feed (`business_email_source` feed), author, genres, country | feed 0.5 to 5.4 MB direct, compute only, 0.8 to 2.9 s | 5, 5, 5, 5 | 3 |

Discovery per keyword, measured the same day: TikTok 7 handles over three Google pages (Google drops the `site:` operator on some exit countries, so a page without a handle is fetched once more); Instagram 1 to 8; YouTube 20 from the channel filtered results page with no search engine; Threads 11 to 15 over two Google pages; Twitch 11 from its own search; Pinterest 50 from its user search resource; podcasts 50 from the iTunes Search API. A Google page costs $0.0025 on the runner's account.

What each platform does not expose without login, and what the row says instead: YouTube's business email sits behind "View email address" and a verification step, so it is not read and `business_email` is filled only from an address written in the public description; Instagram has no location field, so `country_guess` comes from the bio; Threads and podcasts have no per post engagement; podcasts have no follower count; TikTok's anonymous render carries no region, so the country comes from the bio.

### 📋 What data can Influencer Change Monitor extract?

**57 fields** per row, the same 57 in the same order on every actor in this suite. The ones this actor fills:

| Field | What it holds |
|---|---|
| `change_type` | `follower_milestone`, `newsletter_added`, `new_product`, `new_bio_link`, `new_manager`, or `first_seen` |
| `change_from`, `change_to` | The previous and the current value |
| `previous_run_at` | When the previous snapshot was taken |
| `platform`, `handle`, `profile_url`, `display_name`, `followers`, `bio_link` | The current profile columns, so the row stands on its own |
| `newsletter_status`, `newsletter_platform`, `sells_*`, `manager_email` | The link page columns. Current when `check_links` is on; carried forward from the last run that read them when it is off |
| `source_url`, `read_at`, `row_status`, `error_reason`, `billable_events_json` | Where the row came from, when, whether it is usable, and what it cost |

> ⚠️ **`false` and `null` are not the same thing, and an empty cell is not a failed read.** A column this actor does not own is `null`, never missing. On a boolean, `false` means the page was read and the signal was not there; `null` means nothing read it. On an Influencer Profile Scraper row, `verified: false` is a profile without the mark and `verified: null` is a profile that could not be read. Read `row_status` before any other column; the paragraph below says how.

Every actor in this suite writes the same 57 flat columns, in the same order, and fills the ones it owns. A column an actor does not own is null, never missing. Nested data lives only in columns ending `_json`, as a JSON string, so a Clay column reads one cell.

| Group | Columns | Filled by |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Identity | `creator_id`, `creator_id_method`, `creator_id_confidence`, `platform`, `handle`, `profile_url`, `display_name` | Influencer Finder, Influencer Profile Scraper |
| Discovery | `search_keyword`, `niche`, `similar_creators`, `similar_creators_method` | Influencer Finder |
| Profile | `followers`, `following`, `post_count`, `engagement_rate`, `engagement_method`, `verified`, `bio`, `bio_link`, `location_text`, `country_guess`, `country_guess_method` | Influencer Profile Scraper |
| Contact | `business_email`, `business_email_source`, `website_email`, `website_email_source_url`, `manager_name`, `manager_email`, `manager_source_url`, `agency_name`, `agency_domain`, `agency_match_method` | Influencer Profile Scraper, Link in Bio Scraper and Newsletter Detector, Influencer Talent Agency Lookup |
| Links | `link_in_bio_platform`, `outbound_links_json`, `other_social_profiles_json`, `own_website` | Link in Bio Scraper and Newsletter Detector; `other_social_profiles_json` also by the Influencer Profile Scraper |
| Newsletter | `newsletter_status`, `newsletter_platform`, `newsletter_url`, `newsletter_evidence_url`, `newsletter_check_method` | Link in Bio Scraper and Newsletter Detector |
| Sells | `sells_course`, `sells_coaching`, `sells_digital_product`, `sells_merch`, `sells_membership`, `brand_deals_visible`, `discount_codes_visible` | Link in Bio Scraper and Newsletter Detector |
| Change | `change_type`, `change_from`, `change_to`, `previous_run_at` | Influencer Change Monitor |
| Run | `source_url`, `read_at`, `row_status`, `error_reason`, `billable_events_json` | All six |

The Influencer Lead List Builder runs the Influencer Finder, the Influencer Profile Scraper, and the Link in Bio Scraper and Newsletter Detector in one run and fills what they fill. The Influencer Change Monitor and the Influencer Talent Agency Lookup read the profile (and the Influencer Change Monitor reads the link page too when `check_links` is on), so their rows carry the identity, profile, contact, and link columns as well.

**Read `row_status` first.** `ok` is a normal row. `error` carries the reason in `error_reason` (`not_found: user banned`, `private`, `blocked: bot detection page`) and charges nothing. `partial` means the page was read but a step after it failed, and the reason says which.

**The creator ID.** `creator_id` is `cr_` plus 16 hex characters of the SHA-1 of `platform:handle` of the creator's primary profile, so the same creator gets the same ID in every actor and every run. When one run sees the same creator on two platforms, the rows share the ID and each row says how it was linked: `bio_link_match` (0.9, one profile links to the other), `website_match` (0.8, same own website), `handle_match` (0.5, same handle on two platforms, which collides on common words). A lone row is `seed_handle` at 1.

**Country scope.** This actor applies no country filter. Every row carries `country_guess` and `country_guess_method` from the profile read (the platform's region field, the location text, the bio, or a flag emoji), and no creator is dropped for its country.

### 🛠️ How to track changes on a creator list

1. Open the **Input** tab and give the list a `list_name`. The name is the key the saved state lives under.
2. Put the creators in `handles`, one per line, with `platforms` for any bare `@handle`.
3. Leave `check_links` on to recheck the link page for newsletter, products, and manager; turn it off for followers and bio link only, at lower cost. The link columns then carry forward from the last run that read them.
4. Click **Start**. The first run returns one `first_seen` row per creator, the baseline.
5. Run it again next week with the same `list_name` and handles. Only the changes come back.
6. Export from the **Output** tab, or pull the rows through the API.

#### 🧪 Using it in Clay

Add an **Enrichment > Apify** column, pick this actor, and map your handle column to `handles` with a fixed `list_name` per table. Every input is accepted as a string, which is what Clay sends. Schedule the run weekly; a change row lands in the table only when something moved, so the column doubles as a signal feed.

#### 📚 Batch or single

One handle is one run; a list is a batch. Both shapes reach the same code path, and so does the shape the platform produces when Clay sends a top level array against an object schema. Input is deduplicated before any fetch. Rows are pushed as each wave finishes, so a run that hits its timeout keeps every row it already resolved. A row that throws becomes an error row with the reason and the run continues.

Concurrency (`batch_size`) defaults to the measured per platform value in the table above. Above the measured point results start dropping; that is why the default is not higher.

### 💵 How much does it cost to monitor a creator list?

Pay per event. You are charged for output, never for input.

| Event | Fires when | Price |
|---|---|---|
| `actor-start` | Once per run, on start. | $0.002 |
| `creator-rechecked` | Once per creator read on a monitor run, changed or not. The base price per creator. | $0.008 |
| `change-detected` | Once per change row, on top of the recheck. A first\_seen baseline row is a change row. | $0.010 |
| `instagram-bio-fetch` | Once per Instagram profile row when the bio, bio link, and following were not on the embed widget or the datacenter API and the profile page was read over the residential proxy and came back readable. Only when `escalate_on_block` is on; uncheck it to avoid the charge and accept empty bio fields on about half of Instagram rows. Never on the embed or datacenter reads, never on another platform, never on a blocked page, never on an error row. | $0.010 |

Free Apify plan users get 45 results per calendar month, reset monthly. Upgrade to any paid Apify plan for unlimited use: https://apify.com/pricing?fpr=mamba

> 💳 **What you are billed for.** A weekly recheck of 100 creators with 10 changes is $0.80 plus $0.10. The recheck is charged because the work is the recheck, not the result.
>
> An Instagram creator whose bio needs the residential page on a recheck is charged `instagram-bio-fetch` on top of the recheck.

Apify bills its own platform usage on top of the event prices.

### ⌨️ Input

Everything is on the **Input** tab. The options worth explaining:

| Field | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| `list_name` | Names the saved state. Letters, digits, dot, dash, underscore. |
| `handles`, `platforms` | The creators to track, same shapes as the Influencer Profile Scraper. |
| `check_links` | On by default: rechecks the link-in-bio page every run for newsletter, products, and manager. Off: followers and bio link only, at lower cost, and the link columns carry forward from the last run that read them. |
| `match_agencies` | Manager email domain against the agency list. |
| `escalate_on_block` | On by default. A profile fetch that returns a bot detection page is retried once over the residential proxy, and on Instagram the bio page is fetched over residential when the datacenter API does not answer; a readable page charges `instagram-bio-fetch` ($0.010) on top of the recheck. Off: no `instagram-bio-fetch` is ever charged, and the Instagram bio and bio link stay empty on about half of the rows, so a bio link change on those creators is not seen. |

Change rows carry `change_type`, `change_from`, `change_to`, and `previous_run_at`, plus the current profile and link columns so the row stands on its own.

### 📤 Output

Exports to **JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML or XML**. One flat, snake\_case row per creator per platform, 57 columns, with `null` rather than a missing key. No nested objects, so it drops straight into Clay, a spreadsheet or a warehouse table without a flattening step. Nested data lives only in columns ending `_json`, as a JSON string, so a Clay column reads one cell.

The first run for a list returns one `first_seen` row per creator, the baseline; this is one from a gate run. A later change row carries `change_type`, `change_from`, `change_to`, and `previous_run_at` the same way, plus the current profile and link columns. The row below is trimmed to the columns this actor fills; a run with no changes returns no rows at all.

```

### 💡 Tips

- Keep `list_name` stable per list. A new name starts a new baseline and returns `first_seen` for every creator.
- Read `change_type` first, then `change_from` and `change_to`. A milestone row says which threshold was crossed in which direction.
- Turn `check_links` off on a large list you only want sized. The recheck is the base price; the link page adds the newsletter, product, and manager changes. You can mix the two on one list: an off run carries the link columns forward and reports no link change, so the next on run diffs against the last real read.
- Add new handles to the same list at any time. They get a `first_seen` row on their first run and diff from then on.

### ⚠️ Known limits

**Business email coverage.** Business email coverage is partial. The actor fills business\_email only when a creator publishes one: in a bio, a link-in-bio page, or a YouTube channel description. YouTube keeps its business email button behind a sign-in and a CAPTCHA, which the actor does not bypass; in testing, 2 of 5 channels published an address in their description instead. Empty business\_email means no public address was found, not that none exists.

**The first run is a baseline, not a change.** Every creator returns `first_seen` once, and that row is charged as a change row.

**State lives on your account.** The named key value store `creator-change-monitor-state` holds one key per `list_name`; delete the key and the next run starts over.

**Some fields are not exposed without login.** What each platform does not expose without login, and what the row says instead: YouTube's business email sits behind "View email address" and a verification step, so it is not read and `business_email` is filled only from an address written in the public description; Instagram has no location field, so `country_guess` comes from the bio; Threads and podcasts have no per post engagement; podcasts have no follower count; TikTok's anonymous render carries no region, so the country comes from the bio.

**No country filter.** Every row carries `country_guess` and `country_guess_method` from the profile read, and no creator is dropped for its country.

**Not X, not Facebook pages, not LinkedIn.** Seven platforms are read, listed above.

**What is never done.** No login. No CAPTCHA solving. No LinkedIn fetch. No message to anyone. No key of ours is used on your run; this actor has no AI option, and the Twitch credentials you can supply are never logged or written to a row.

### What this actor shares

This run contributes the records it finds to a shared creator and agency pool that all users of this actor read from. What one run finds, the next run can read.

The toggle is `contribute_to_shared_pool`. It is a boolean input and it is on by default. Turn it off and the run still reads the pool and writes nothing to it.

**What this actor contributes.** The profile fields that changed since the last run, and any manager contact that is new.

**Only public data that is already in your own output.** Every field written to the pool is a field this run returned to you, read from a page the platform or the creator publishes to anyone without a login. Nothing from your Apify account, your input list, your API keys, or your own notes is sent. A contribution never deletes anything from the pool.

**What a contribution is labeled with.** The actor ID, the run ID, the pool key issued to the actor build, and a hash of the calling IP address, used for the rate limit and nothing else. Your Apify account and your user ID are not recorded.

**Contributing is free.** No event is charged for a write to the pool. If the pool is unreachable the run finishes as normal, the rows are dropped, and the run log says so.

### ❓ FAQ

**Why did my run return zero rows?**
Nothing changed since the previous run for that `list_name`. A run's row count is its change count.

**Why am I charged for creators that did not change?**
The recheck is charged because the work is the recheck, not the result. `change-detected` is charged on top only for change rows.

**Which milestones count?**
1K, 5K, 10K, 25K, 50K, 100K, 250K, 500K, 1M and up, crossed in either direction.

**Where is the saved state?**
In a named key value store on your own account (`creator-change-monitor-state`), one key per `list_name`. Nothing is kept by Mamba Labs.

**Can I watch the link page less often than the profile?**
Yes, on one list. A run with `check_links` off carries every link column forward from the last run that read it, so nothing is wiped and no link change row fires for a column that was not read. The next run with `check_links` on diffs against that last real read. A change that happened between the two link reads is reported on the later one, dated to the snapshot it is diffed against, not to the day it happened.

### 🆘 Support

Issues, field requests and bug reports: open an issue on the actor's Issues tab.
Mamba Labs reads every one.

> ℹ️ **Sourcing and legal.** Every field comes from pages the platforms and the creators publish to anyone without a login, read directly or through a proxy, with no login, no CAPTCHA solving, and no LinkedIn fetch. The row records what was public at `read_at`. Nothing is assessed or scored; a class, a flag, or a match method says what was read and where. You are responsible for how you use the output, including under applicable data protection and platform terms.

Built by [Mamba Labs](https://apify.com/mambalabs?fpr=mamba).

# Actor input Schema

## `list_name` (type: `string`):

Names the saved state. The first run for a list returns one first\_seen row per creator as the baseline; later runs with the same name return only changes. Letters, digits, dot, dash, underscore.

## `handles` (type: `array`):

One per line. A profile URL on any supported platform (https://www.tiktok.com/@name, https://www.instagram.com/name/, https://www.youtube.com/@name, a Pinterest, Twitch, or Threads profile, an Apple Podcasts show page, or a Spotify show), or platform:@handle (tiktok:@name). A bare @handle needs `platforms` and is looked up on each listed platform. One entry is a single run; a list is a batch. Duplicates are removed before any fetch.

## `platforms` (type: `array`):

Which platforms a bare @handle is looked up on. A full profile URL carries its own platform and ignores this. This actor does not search; pass the creators you want read. Supported: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Pinterest, Twitch, Threads, and podcasts. Not X, not Facebook pages, not LinkedIn.

## `check_links` (type: `boolean`):

Rechecks newsletter status, products, and manager contact on every run. Uncheck for a follower and bio link only check at lower cost: the link columns then keep the values from the last run that read them, and no change row fires for a column that was not read.

## `match_agencies` (type: `boolean`):

Matches the domain of a manager or business email against the bundled talent agency list and fills agency\_name, agency\_domain, and agency\_match\_method. Charged per matched row (event agency-match).

## `escalate_on_block` (type: `boolean`):

On by default. A profile fetch that comes back as a bot detection page is retried once over the residential proxy. On Instagram the bio, bio link, and following are read from the profile page over residential when the embed and the datacenter API did not carry them, and a page that comes back readable charges instagram-bio-fetch ($0.010). Uncheck it to never pay that event: a blocked profile then returns a labeled error row, and Instagram rows keep an empty bio and bio link on about half of the reads.

## `batch_size` (type: `integer`):

Rows fetched at once. Leave empty for the measured per platform default; the measurement is in the README. Higher is faster and, above the measured point, loses rows.

## `twitch_client_id` (type: `string`):

Optional. Your own registered Twitch application client id. With `twitch_app_token` the Twitch reads use the official Helix API instead of the public web endpoint. Never a Mamba Labs credential.

## `twitch_app_token` (type: `string`):

Optional. An app access token for your Twitch client id (client credentials flow). Used only for Twitch reads, never stored or logged.

## `contribute_to_shared_pool` (type: `boolean`):

On by default. The run contributes the public records it finds to a shared creator and agency pool that all users of this actor read from, so a later run reads what this one found. Only public data that is already in your own output rows is sent: nothing from your Apify account, your input list, your API keys, or your own notes. Nothing is charged for a contribution. Turn this off and the run still reads the pool and writes nothing to it. Default: true.

## `source_tag` (type: `string`):

Attribution for published example tasks. Leave empty.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "list_name": "default",
  "handles": [],
  "platforms": [
    "tiktok",
    "instagram"
  ],
  "check_links": true,
  "match_agencies": true,
  "escalate_on_block": true,
  "contribute_to_shared_pool": true
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `results` (type: `string`):

Dataset of one flat row per creator per platform, with row\_status on every row so an error never reads as a blank. Every actor in the Mamba Labs creator suite writes the same column set; a column this actor does not fill is null on every row. The Overview view lists the columns this actor fills.

# 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 = {
    "list_name": "default",
    "handles": [],
    "platforms": [
        "tiktok",
        "instagram"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("mambalabs/creator-change-monitor").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 = {
    "list_name": "default",
    "handles": [],
    "platforms": [
        "tiktok",
        "instagram",
    ],
}

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("mambalabs/creator-change-monitor").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 '{
  "list_name": "default",
  "handles": [],
  "platforms": [
    "tiktok",
    "instagram"
  ]
}' |
apify call mambalabs/creator-change-monitor --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,mambalabs/creator-change-monitor"
        }
    }
}
```

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).
