Output

Getting started
Besides Apify you need a SIGNL4 account. The SIGNL4 actor requires the SIGNL4 team or integration secret that you can obtain in SIGNL4.
To run the actor in Apify simply create a new task for the actor by clicking the green button above, modify the actor input configuration, click Run and get your results.
Send alerts
You can trigger an alert using a webhook from another Actor, e.g. when the Actor reaches a certain state. You obtain the webhook URL of the SIGNL4 Actor at API -> API endpoints. The Payload template might look like follows:
1{ 2 "userId": {{userId}}, 3 "createdAt": {{createdAt}}, 4 "eventType": {{eventType}}, 5 "eventData": {{eventData}}, 6 "resource": {{resource}}, 7 "secret": "your-signl4-team-or-integration-secre", 8 "title": "Web Scraper Alert from Apify", 9 "data": {{eventData}} 10}
Alternatively, you can trigger the alert within the code of another Actor like this:
1import { Actor } from 'apify'; 2await Actor.init(); 3 4// Send SIGNL4 alert 5await Actor.call('roncz/signl4', { 6 secret: 'your-signl4-team-or-integration-secret', 7 title: 'Web Scraper Alert from Apify', 8 message: "Web scraper content available.", 9 data: headingObject 10}); 11 12await Actor.exit();
Use cases
Sending automated alerts from Apify has several benefits. Users can react to critical situations quickly and to take according action. Here come some sample use cases:
- Alerts on certain Actor states, e.g. failures
- Web scraping alerts, e.g. if a web page changes or if a certain value or price reaches a threshold
- Use Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to monitor your web workflows and alert admins if a workflow fails (before your customers will recognize)
- Integrate with other tools including AI (ChatGPT, LLMs) to create powerful alerting workflows
