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.

Accuracy depends on how well physicians maintain their Doximity profiles, which are generally professional and current. **πŸ“… Can I schedule this to run automatically?** Yes, use the Schedule tab in Apify Console to run this scraper daily, weekly, or monthly to monitor physician data changes. **βš–οΈ Is it legal to scrape Doximity?** Yes, you are collecting data from public profiles. However, you are responsible for complying with Doximity's terms of service and all applicable laws in your jurisdiction. **πŸ›‘οΈ Will Doximity block me?** Doximity may rate-limit aggressive requests. We recommend using a residential proxy and adjusting the Request Delay and Max Concurrency settings if you encounter blocks. **⚑ How long does a run take?** For 100 physicians without profile details, expect 2-5 minutes. With full profile details enabled, 100 physicians may take 10-20 minutes depending on concurrency settings and request delay. **⚠️ Are there any limits?** You can adjust the Max Items parameter to control how many physician records to collect per run.
