## 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.

# README

## Orleans Parish Assessor Records

Search Orleans Parish Assessor records by property address, owner name, parcel number, tax bill number, or Beacon assessor key.

RecordsDB returns source-backed property details, including parcel identifiers, owner name, physical address, assessment values, land and building area, tax bill number, and official source links.

### How to Search

Enter one or more values in Search queries.

Examples:

* Address: `156 MILLAUDON ST`
* Owner name: `EXAMPLE PROPERTY OWNER LLC`
* Parcel number: `41027513`
* Tax bill number: `716100709`
* Beacon assessor key: `41027513`

### Result Selection

For each search query, the Actor saves the best matching Orleans Parish Assessor record returned by RecordsDB.

This keeps output to one resolved record per query when a close match is found. If RecordsDB returns candidate records but none closely match the submitted query, the Actor returns `not_found` for that query.

### Maximum Results Per Search

Maximum results per search controls how many candidate records RecordsDB may return for matching and ranking.

Recommended value: `20`.

The Actor still saves only the best matching record for each query.

### Wait for Results

Keep Wait for results enabled.

RecordsDB may need time to retrieve records that have not been collected previously.

Recommended settings:

* Maximum wait time: `360` seconds
* Retry delay: `30` seconds
* Max concurrent queries: `2`

### Concurrency

This Actor processes up to 2 searches at a time.

Recommended value:

* `maxConcurrentQueries`: `2`

RecordsDB source collection is also configured for 2 concurrent source workers, so this setting keeps the Actor aligned with the RecordsDB backend.

### Recommended Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "156 MILLAUDON ST",
    "810 TURQUOISE ST"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 20,
  "waitForResults": true,
  "maxWaitSeconds": 360,
  "retryDelaySeconds": 30,
  "maxConcurrentQueries": 2
}
````

### Multiple Searches

You can submit addresses, owner names, parcel numbers, tax bill numbers, and assessor keys in the same run.

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "156 MILLAUDON ST",
    "810 TURQUOISE ST",
    "41027513",
    "716100709"
  ],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 20,
  "waitForResults": true,
  "maxConcurrentQueries": 2
}
```

### Result Status

Each dataset item includes a `status`:

- `resolved`: An Orleans Parish Assessor record was found.
- `not_found`: The search completed without finding a close match.
- `processing_timeout`: RecordsDB was still collecting data when the Actor wait limit was reached. The search can be retried.
- `error`: The request could not be completed.
- `configuration_error`: The Actor is missing its RecordsDB API key.
- `invalid_input`: No valid search query was provided.

### Output

Results may include:

- `query`
- `status`
- `assessorKey`
- `parcelNumber`
- `taxBillNumber`
- `physicalAddress`
- `ownerName`
- `propertyType`
- `landAreaSquareFeet`
- `buildingAreaSquareFeet`
- `landValue`
- `buildingValue`
- `totalValue`
- `assessedValue`
- `taxableAssessment`
- `sourceRecordUrl`
- `recordType`
- `source`

### Data Source

Results are collected from publicly available Orleans Parish Assessor records and delivered through RecordsDB.
