| Article | headline, description, publishedAt, author, imageUrl, url |
Input
Use symbols for quote pages such as AAPL, startUrls for public MarketWatch pages, or searchQueries for MarketWatch search pages. mode can be quote, news, or auto. The Actor accepts only MarketWatch URLs and never bypasses authentication, paywalls, CAPTCHA, or access controls.
Set useApifyProxy when direct access is challenged. Alternatively, provide dataImpulseProxyUrl as a secret input in the form http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@gw.dataimpulse.com:823. The Actor never logs the proxy URL. Results are capped with maxResults and maxPages.
Output and failure behavior
Each valid result is written as one default-dataset item. Run diagnostics are saved in the SUMMARY key-value record. A challenge is reported as blocked with zero fabricated results; a page without an extractable record is reported as empty or as a warning. MarketWatch may restrict automated access, so successful container completion does not guarantee a result.
Pay per event
- Actor start: $0.0001 per GB-minute event, with the default 2 GB run using about $0.0002 for startup.
- MarketWatch record: $0.001 per dataset item.
For example, a run returning 10 records has an event subtotal of $0.0101, excluding any optional platform/proxy usage charged by Apify.
Compliance
Use this Actor only for public pages and in accordance with MarketWatch terms, robots directives, applicable law, and your data-use rights. Do not submit credentials, cookies, or personal data.
