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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## CoinGecko Scraper — Crypto Market Data **Full crypto market data from CoinGecko in one keyless actor** — price, market-cap rank, volume, 24h/7d/30d change, all-time high/low, circulating/total/max supply, and optional daily price history. For the top coins, specific coin ids, or a whole category. Priced in any fiat or crypto currency. For portfolio trackers, dashboards, trading bots, research and crypto apps. ### What you get Per coin: - **Identity** — `id`, `symbol`, `name`, `image`, CoinGecko `url` - **Market** — `rank`, `price`, `marketCap`, `fullyDilutedValuation`, `totalVolume` - **Movement** — `high24h`, `low24h`, `priceChange24h`, `priceChangePct24h`, `priceChangePct7d`, `priceChangePct30d` - **Supply** — `circulatingSupply`, `totalSupply`, `maxSupply` - **Extremes** — `ath`, `athChangePct`, `athDate`, `atl`, `atlDate`, `lastUpdated` - **History (optional)** — nested `history[]` of `{ date, price, totalVolume, marketCap }` daily points ### Output sample ```json { "id": "bitcoin", "symbol": "btc", "name": "Bitcoin", "rank": 1, "price": 68250.12, "marketCap": 1348000000000, "fullyDilutedValuation": 1432000000000, "totalVolume": 24500000000, "high24h": 69100.0, "low24h": 67200.0, "priceChange24h": 820.5, "priceChangePct24h": 1.22, "priceChangePct7d": -3.41, "priceChangePct30d": 8.9, "circulatingSupply": 19750000, "totalSupply": 21000000, "maxSupply": 21000000, "ath": 73738.0, "athChangePct": -7.4, "athDate": "2024-03-14T07:10:36.635Z", "atl": 67.81, "atlDate": "2013-07-06T00:00:00.000Z", "lastUpdated": "2026-07-12T12:00:00.000Z", "image": "https://.../bitcoin.png", "url": "https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin", "history": [ { "date": "2026-06-12T00:00:00.000Z", "price": 62700.0, "totalVolume": 21000000000, "marketCap": 1240000000000 } ] } ```` `history` is present only when `includeHistory` is on. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `vsCurrency` | string | `usd` | Quote currency, e.g. `usd`, `eur`, `btc` | | `coinIds` | array | — | Specific coin ids (e.g. `bitcoin`); empty = top coins by order | | `category` | string | — | CoinGecko category id, e.g. `layer-1`, `meme-token` | | `order` | string | `market_cap_desc` | `market_cap_desc/asc`, `volume_desc/asc`, `id_asc` | | `includeHistory` | boolean | `false` | Also fetch each coin's daily price history | | `historyDays` | integer | `30` | Days of history when enabled (e.g. 7, 30, 90, 365) | | `maxResults` | integer | `100` | Cap on coins returned | ### Example input ```json { "vsCurrency": "usd", "coinIds": ["bitcoin", "ethereum", "solana"], "includeHistory": true, "historyDays": 90 } ``` ### Why this actor - **More than a screener** — market-cap rankings, supply figures, ATH/ATL *and* per-coin price history in one actor. - **Flexible targeting** — top-N, specific coins, or a category; any fiat/crypto quote currency. - **Reliable** — handles CoinGecko's free-tier rate limits with throttling and 429 backoff. ### Pricing Pay per result — **$2.00 per 1,000 results** (one result = one coin, with history nested). No subscription; you pay only for what you get. ### Notes & limits - Uses CoinGecko's free public API, which is rate-limited; enabling `includeHistory` adds one throttled request per coin (slower). - Market data reflects CoinGecko at fetch time and changes constantly. Not financial advice; not affiliated with CoinGecko. ### Related actors - **TradingView Screener** — stocks/crypto/forex technical scanner. - **Yahoo Finance Scraper** — historical OHLCV price data. - **SEC EDGAR Scraper** — US public-company filings. # Actor input Schema ## `vsCurrency` (type: `string`): Fiat/crypto to price against, e.g. "usd", "eur", "btc". ## `coinIds` (type: `array`): Specific CoinGecko coin ids, e.g. \["bitcoin","ethereum","solana"]. Empty = top coins by the chosen order. ## `category` (type: `string`): Filter by CoinGecko category id, e.g. "layer-1", "meme-token", "decentralized-finance-defi". ## `order` (type: `string`): Sort order for the market list. ## `includeHistory` (type: `boolean`): Also fetch each coin's price history (daily). Slower — one extra throttled request per coin. ## `historyDays` (type: `integer`): How many days of history when 'Include price history' is on (e.g. 7, 30, 90, 365). ## `maxResults` (type: `integer`): Cap on number of coins returned. ## Actor input object example ```json { "vsCurrency": "usd", "order": "market_cap_desc", "includeHistory": false, "historyDays": 30, "maxResults": 100 } ``` # 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 '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "vsCurrency": "usd" }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("ponderable_hydrometer/coingecko-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
