## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Website Lead Scraper

Build a lead file from the open web. Start with web page URLs; each returned lead keeps company names, contact emails, email sources, phone numbers, and phone sources.

![Website Lead Scraper interface](https://reapx.dev/assets/products/website-lead-scraper/readme.png)

### What it returns

Each row keeps the the web source record beside the fields needed to use it. The opening set is `requestedUrl`, `finalUrl`, `route`, `scrapedAt`, `wireBytes`, `decodedBytes`, `responseStatus`, `pagesChecked`, `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `description`, and `descriptionProvenance`. The complete schema is declared before the run, and dataset views keep related fields together without changing the underlying row.

### Input

Website Lead Scraper accepts source URLs. Run controls stay in the same form.

| Field | What it controls | Starting value |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `startUrls` | Paste exact URLs from the open web, one per line. | `["https://www.audacityteam.org"]` |
| `maxItems` | Stop after this many dataset rows. | `20` |
| `maxSeconds` | Stop after this many seconds and keep completed rows. | `180` |

#### Example input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    "https://www.audacityteam.org"
  ],
  "maxItems": 3,
  "maxSeconds": 180
}
```

No field is required. Start with the filled example, then replace only the target values needed for the job. Run controls can stay at their starting values for the first collection.

### Dataset fields

| Field | Type |
| --- | --- |
| `requestedUrl` | `string` |
| `finalUrl` | `string` |
| `route` | `string` |
| `scrapedAt` | `string` |
| `wireBytes` | `integer` |
| `decodedBytes` | `integer` |
| `responseStatus` | `integer` |
| `pagesChecked` | `integer` |
| `companyName` | `string` |
| `companyNameProvenance` | `object` |
| `description` | `string` |
| `descriptionProvenance` | `object` |
| `contactEmails` | `array:string` |
| `emailSources` | `array:object` |
| `phoneNumbers` | `array:string` |
| `phoneSources` | `array:object` |
| `postalAddress` | `object` |
| `addressProvenance` | `object` |

### Dataset views

Views are working surfaces for review and export. They select and order fields while leaving the stored row unchanged.

| View | Opening fields |
| --- | --- |
| `overview` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `contactEmails`, `emailSources`, `phoneNumbers`, `phoneSources`, `socialProfiles`, and `postalAddress` |
| `identity` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, and `responseStatus` |
| `contact` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `requestedUrl`, `contactEmails`, `emailSources`, `phoneNumbers`, `phoneSources`, and `socialProfiles` |
| `location` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `requestedUrl`, `postalAddress`, and `addressProvenance` |
| `content` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `requestedUrl`, `description`, and `descriptionProvenance` |
| `timing` | `companyName`, `companyNameProvenance`, `requestedUrl`, `scrapedAt`, `route`, `wireBytes`, and `pagesChecked` |

![Website Lead Scraper input and result demonstration](https://reapx.dev/assets/products/website-lead-scraper/demo.webp)

### Output and exports

| Output | Type | Destination |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `results` | `string` | `{{links.apiDefaultDatasetUrl}}/items` |
| `json` | `string` | `{{links.apiDefaultDatasetUrl}}/items?clean=true&format=json` |
| `csv` | `string` | `{{links.apiDefaultDatasetUrl}}/items?clean=true&format=csv` |
| `excel` | `string` | `{{links.apiDefaultDatasetUrl}}/items?clean=true&format=xlsx` |
| `jsonl` | `string` | `{{links.apiDefaultDatasetUrl}}/items?clean=true&format=jsonl` |

Completed rows are available in the Apify dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, and JSONL exports. The run output also carries the declared links above for API clients and automations.

### Pricing

$50 per 1,000 rows on the Free plan. Other Apify plans use the rates shown in the Pricing tab.

### Console, API, schedules, and MCP

Runs can begin in Apify Console, from a saved task, or through the Actor API. A schedule can reuse the same input, and a run-finished webhook can pass the dataset or run ID to the next system.

```text
POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/dNV7lukVXi0ecRfAG/runs
GET  https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/{datasetId}/items
```

For MCP selection, use **Website Lead Scraper**. Its machine entry carries the same description, input field names, no-required-field contract, output types, dataset fields, views, and pricing facts as this document.

### Saved tasks

Twenty saved-task products cover distinct lookup, comparison, research, operations, automation, and export jobs:

- **Website Lead core social profiles detail file**: buyer-job; opens `overview`.
- **Website Lead identity company names company file**: buyer-job; opens `identity`.
- **Website Lead contact emails contact list**: buyer-job; opens `contact`.
- **Website Lead postal address provenance location**: buyer-job; opens `location`.
- **Website Lead descriptions text file**: buyer-job; opens `content`.
- **Website Lead collection times date order**: buyer-job; opens `timing`.
- **Website Lead social profiles core record view**: buyer-job; opens `overview`.
- **Website Lead company name identity firmographic view**: buyer-job; opens `identity`.
- **Website Lead email sources phone numbers contact**: buyer-job; opens `contact`.
- **Website Lead market location file**: buyer-job; opens `location`.
- **Website Lead content description provenance copy review**: buyer-job; opens `content`.
- **Website Lead collection times and company name timeline**: buyer-job; opens `timing`.
- **Website Lead social profiles phone numbers core**: buyer-job; opens `overview`.
- **Website Lead company names company name identity**: buyer-job; opens `identity`.
- **Website Lead contact detail list**: buyer-job; opens `contact`.
- **Website Lead postal address area shortlist**: buyer-job; opens `location`.
- **Website Lead descriptions content brief**: buyer-job; opens `content`.
- **Website Lead timing collection times recency view**: buyer-job; opens `timing`.
- **Website Lead social profiles full record**: buyer-job; opens `overview`.
- **Website Lead company name business roster**: buyer-job; opens `identity`.

### Integrations

Use the dataset API from any HTTP client, export rows to a spreadsheet, or send the run ID through an Apify webhook. Saved tasks give schedules and automation tools a stable input without changing the Actor contract.

### When a run needs attention

- **No rows:** Open the target in a browser, check spelling and source visibility, then retry the saved example before widening the input.
- **A field is empty:** Check the field beside its source URL. A missing source value stays empty instead of being replaced with a guess.
- **A target fails:** Keep successful targets in the dataset, then retry only the affected input.
- **An automation cannot find results:** Read the dataset ID from the run and request its items endpoint directly.

### FAQ

#### What do I get back from one run?

One row per lead with 19 declared fields, opening on requestedUrl, finalUrl, route and scrapedAt. The schema is published before the run, so you know the shape before you spend anything.

#### Do I need a website account or login?

No. The run works from the website sources you supply in the input. Nothing is posted, changed or accessed on your behalf.

#### What does a run cost?

The current rate is shown on the Pricing tab and is charged per row you receive, so a run that finds nothing costs close to nothing. Cap the run with the item limit when you want a predictable ceiling.

#### Can I try it before committing budget?

Yes. Cap the run with the item limit in the input and inspect the first rows. The cap is enforced before charging, so a trial run stays a trial.

#### What do I put in the input?

The staged input is already usable: startUrls, maxItems and maxSeconds. Replace the staged target with your own list when you are ready to run for real.

#### Are any fields required?

No field is required. Every input carries a working default, so the Actor can be started as-is and refined afterwards.

#### What happens if a source fails mid-run?

The run continues through the remaining sources and finishes with what it collected. Partial results are still written to the dataset rather than discarded.

#### Can I limit how long a run takes?

Yes. The maxItems input caps the run. Use it when you need a predictable cost and a predictable finish time.

#### How do I report a problem?

Open an issue on the Actor with the run ID, the input you used and the field or row that needs attention. The run ID lets the exact execution be inspected.

#### How is this different from Website Email Scraper?

Website Lead Scraper answers one job: Build a lead file from the open web.. Website Email Scraper covers a different question on the same platform. Run both when you need both sides.

#### What is `responseStatus` for?

It records how the row was resolved, so you can filter to the rows you trust instead of treating every row as equally certain.

#### How do I read the output without scrolling through JSON?

Open the overview view on the Output tab. 6 views ship with the Actor (overview, identity, contact, location, content and timing), each grouping the fields that belong to one question.

#### How do I get the data into my own tools?

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel or XML, call the dataset API directly, or attach a run-finished webhook and collect the dataset reference as soon as the run ends.

#### Can an agent or LLM call this?

Yes. Website Lead Scraper is exposed over MCP with the same description, no-required-field input contract and output types shown here, so an agent can select and call it without a human in the loop.

#### Why is a value empty on some rows?

website does not expose every field on every lead. An absent value stays empty rather than being filled with a guess, so a row never invents a fact it did not receive.

#### A run returned fewer rows than I expected. Why?

The usual causes are a narrow source list, an item cap still set low, or a source that genuinely holds less than expected. Widen the input or raise the cap and run again.

#### Can I schedule this to run on its own?

Yes. Save the input as an Apify task and attach a schedule. Keep separate tasks when different teams need different targets or delivery paths.

#### Do I need to configure proxies?

No. Network access is handled inside the Actor and needs no proxy configuration from you.

#### How fresh is the data?

Every row is collected during the run you start, not served from a cache. Re-run the same input whenever you need the current state of a website lead.

#### Can I use the results commercially?

The Actor collects publicly accessible website information. You remain responsible for how you use it, including any privacy or contractual obligations that apply to your business.

#### How do I compare two runs?

Keep requestedUrl and finalUrl as your join key and diff the exports. The identity fields stay stable across runs, which is what makes a comparison meaningful.

### Support

Use the Actor issue form for product questions, broken source routes, schema mismatches, and feedback. Include the smallest input that reproduces the problem. That is enough to locate the run and its dataset without sharing an entire working list.

Use this Actor only for data you are allowed to collect. Follow source terms, privacy law, and your own retention policy.
