## 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/docs.md):

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

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

## KuCoin Crypto Ticker Scraper 🪙📈

**Scrape live crypto prices, 24-hour volume, and price change for 1,000+ KuCoin spot pairs — no API key, no login, no rate-limit headaches.** Point it at KuCoin's public market endpoint and get clean, normalized JSON for every trading pair in a single run.

Built for **crypto traders, quant researchers, trading bots, and portfolio trackers** who need reliable, structured market data without wrestling with exchange SDKs or authentication.

---

### ✨ What it does

This Actor calls KuCoin's public REST API and returns one dataset row per spot ticker, with fields normalized and coerced to clean numeric types:

- `symbol` / `name` — e.g. `BTC-USDT`
- `last_price` — last traded price
- `buy` / `sell` — best bid / best ask
- `change_rate` — 24h change as a fraction (e.g. `0.0151`)
- `change_pct` — 24h change in percent (e.g. `1.51`)
- `change_price` — 24h absolute price change
- `high_24h` / `low_24h` — 24h high & low
- `volume_24h` — 24h volume in the **base** currency
- `volume_value_24h` — 24h volume in the **quote** currency (turnover)
- `average_price` — 24h average price
- `source` — always `kucoin`
- `scraped_at` — ISO-8601 UTC timestamp

Every field is nullable and safe to consume — missing values come back as `null` rather than breaking your pipeline.

---

### 🚀 Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `mode` | select | `tickers` — fetch all spot tickers in one request. |
| `symbolFilter` | string (optional) | Case-insensitive substring match on the pair symbol. `USDT` → all USDT pairs, `BTC` → all Bitcoin pairs, `BTC-USDT` → a single pair. Empty = every ticker. |
| `maxItems` | integer | Max items to store (after filtering). Default `500`, max `5000`. |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "mode": "tickers",
  "symbolFilter": "USDT",
  "maxItems": 1000
}
````
