## 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.

## 🪜 L2Beat Rollups Scraper

> 🚀 **Export L2Beat scaling summary in seconds. Rollup name, TVL, stage, risks, DA layer, host chain, type, TPS, and daily ops direct from the public L2Beat data layer.**

> 🕒 **Last updated:** 2026-06-05 · **📊 12 fields** per record · Rollups, Validiums, Optimiums · Stage 0, 1, 2 coverage

The L2Beat Rollups Scraper turns the public L2Beat scaling summary into a structured dataset. It returns one row per rollup with TVL, decentralization stage, data availability layer, host chain, type, activity TPS, daily operations, and risk profile.

Coverage spans every rollup, validium, and optimium tracked by L2Beat with 12 normalized fields per record.

| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| 🪜 L2 researchers | Track rollup stage progression |
| 📊 Crypto analysts | Compare L2 TVL by category |
| 🤖 Quants | Build L2 market datasets |
| 🏢 Allocators | Monitor L2 risk profiles |
| 👩‍💻 Developers | Mirror L2Beat data into a warehouse |

### 📋 What the L2Beat Rollups Scraper does

- Calls the public L2Beat scaling summary tRPC endpoint.
- Returns one normalized row per L2.
- Optional filters by category, stage, and host chain.
- Exports as CSV, Excel, JSON, JSONL, XML, RSS, or HTML.

> 💡 **Why it matters:** L2Beat is the definitive scoreboard of Ethereum scaling solutions. Its data drives institutional risk assessments. This actor surfaces the live snapshot without scraping HTML.

### ⚙️ Input

<table>
<tr><th>Field</th><th>Type</th><th>Required</th><th>Description</th></tr>
<tr><td><code>maxItems</code></td><td>integer</td><td>No</td><td>Free users 10. Paid users up to 1,000,000.</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>tab</code></td><td>enum</td><td>No</td><td>rollups, validiumsAndOptimiums, others.</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>stage</code></td><td>enum</td><td>No</td><td>Stage 0, 1, or 2.</td></tr>
<tr><td><code>hostChain</code></td><td>string</td><td>No</td><td>Optional host chain partial match.</td></tr>
</table>

**Example 1, Stage 1 rollups:**
```json
{ "tab": "rollups", "stage": "Stage 1", "maxItems": 25 }
````

**Example 2, validiums on Ethereum:**

```json
{ "tab": "validiumsAndOptimiums", "hostChain": "Ethereum", "maxItems": 25 }
```

> ⚠️ **Good to Know:** L2Beat stages reflect decentralization maturity, not security. Stage 0 has training-wheel governance, Stage 2 is fully decentralized.
