## 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

## ARIA Landmark Auditor

Fetches one public page and audits its semantic HTML and ARIA landmark structure. It checks for a single main landmark, repeated landmarks that need accessible labels, and duplicate banner or contentinfo landmarks.

### Use cases

- Accessibility QA for page templates, product pages, landing pages, and checkout flows.
- SEO and technical QA during site launches or migrations.
- Scheduled monitoring for CMS templates where landmark regressions can affect many pages.
- Developer-tool pipelines that need one structured JSON result per page.

### Input

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `startUrl` | string | yes | Public HTTP or HTTPS page URL to audit. Credentials and private network targets are rejected. |
| `timeoutSeconds` | integer | no | Page request timeout from 3 to 30 seconds. Default is 10. |
| `maxLandmarks` | integer | no | Maximum landmark detail objects to include in output. Default is 100. |

### Output

The actor pushes one dataset item per run.

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `inputUrl` | string | Original URL from input. |
| `normalizedInputUrl` | string | Input URL after adding a default HTTPS scheme if omitted. |
| `finalUrl` | string | Final fetched URL after safe redirects. |
| `status` | integer or null | HTTP status code, or null when the fetch failed. |
| `ok` | boolean | True when the page fetched successfully and scored at least 90. |

| `contentinfoCount` | integer | Count of `footer` or `role="contentinfo"` landmarks. |
| `complementaryCount` | integer | Count of `aside` or `role="complementary"` landmarks. |
| `searchCount` | integer | Count of `role="search"` landmarks. |
| `formLandmarkCount` | integer | Count of `role="form"` landmarks. |
| `regionCount` | integer | Count of `role="region"` landmarks. |
| `unlabeledRepeatedCount` | integer | Repeated navigation, complementary, form, region, or search landmarks without `aria-label` or `aria-labelledby`. |
| `landmarks` | array | Sampled landmark objects with tag, role, explicit role, label, id, and class name. |
| `unlabeledRepeatedLandmarks` | array | Sampled repeated landmarks that need labels. |
| `score` | integer | Accessibility readiness score from 0 to 100. |
| `grade` | string | Letter grade from A to F. |
| `issues` | array | Human-readable problems found. |
| `recommendations` | array | Actionable fixes. |
| `error` | string or null | Fetch or validation error, if any. |

```

### Security

This actor only fetches public HTTP and HTTPS URLs. It rejects URL credentials, localhost and private IP literals, hostnames that resolve to private IP ranges, and redirects to private targets. Response bodies are capped at 2 MB.

### Pricing

| Event | Suggested price | Notes |
| --- | ---: | --- |
| Actor start | `$0.005` | Charged once per run. |
| Page audited | `$0.01` | Charged per dataset item pushed. |

### FAQ

#### Does this run a browser?

No. It fetches HTML and parses landmark elements and roles. This keeps runs fast and inexpensive.

#### Does it validate every WCAG rule?

No. It focuses on landmark structure. Use it alongside broader accessibility scanners when you need full WCAG coverage.

#### Can it audit private staging sites?

No. Private network targets are blocked for SSRF safety. Use public staging URLs only.

#### What should a good page have?

Most pages should have one main landmark and clear labels for repeated navigation, search, form, complementary, or region landmarks.
