## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

# README

## UK FCA Enforcement Notice Tracker

Track UK FCA enforcement notices — firms/individuals, action type, fines and regulatory basis. The notices lane.

> Factual public records — not financial, investment or compliance advice. Screening data is provided as-is for your own compliance program.

### ⏰ Run this as a monitoring subscription (recommended)
Regulatory data is monitoring data. Schedule a weekly sweep (`0 8 * * 1`) and catch new notices as they post — an always-on official-records feed.

### 📊 What you get
Clean JSON, one record per notice (full output has 10 fields):

- `action_id` — Action id
- `firm_or_individual` — Firm or individual
- `action_type` — Action type
- `date_of_notice` — Date of notice
- `fine_amount_gbp` — Fine amount gbp
- `penalty_currency` — Penalty currency
- `regulatory_basis` — Regulatory basis
- `short_summary` — Short summary
- `full_notice_url` — Full notice url
- `data_source` — Data source

**Pricing:** $0.200 per notice (Pay-Per-Event) — about **5 notices per $1**.

### 🤖 Use with AI agents
Point Claude, the OpenAI Agents SDK, an n8n flow or any MCP-aware client at it and pull official records on demand.

**Agentic payments (x402):** Supports agentic payment via x402 — agents can call this actor with USDC, no API key required.

# Actor input Schema

## `action_type` (type: `string`):

Filter FCA enforcement notices by type. 'ALL' returns every notice type. 'FINAL_NOTICE' = Final Notices (concluded enforcement actions — fines, prohibitions, cancellations). 'DECISION_NOTICE' = Decision Notices (FCA's decided sanction, may be referred to the Upper Tribunal). 'SUPERVISORY_NOTICE' = Supervisory Notices (immediate restrictions on permissions, often pre-Final-Notice). 'WARNING_NOTICE' = Warning Notices / Warning Notice Statements (FCA's intended action, opens representations window).
## `date_from` (type: `string`):

Lower bound on the date the FCA notice was issued (ISO YYYY-MM-DD). Leave empty for no lower bound. Default behaviour is the last 30 days when neither date_from nor date_to is supplied.
## `date_to` (type: `string`):

Upper bound on the date the FCA notice was issued (ISO YYYY-MM-DD). Pair with date_from to build a quarterly enforcement report or a 60-day trend window. Leave empty for no upper bound.
## `firm_or_individual` (type: `string`):

Case-insensitive substring match against the firm or individual name as it appears in the FCA notice. Use for counterparty monitoring (e.g. 'Barclays', 'HSBC', 'Revolut') or fit-and-proper screening of a named individual against the FCA enforcement record. Leave empty to skip.
## `maxResults` (type: `integer`):

Hard cap on enforcement notices returned in this run (1-500). Each notice is one dataset row and is billed at the per-enforcement-record price. Start small (10-25) to scope your sweep, scale up for back-population runs.

# 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 = {
    "action_type": "ALL",
    "date_from": "",
    "date_to": "",
    "firm_or_individual": "",
