## 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.

### 🚀 Quick start

```json
{
    "keyword": "data science",
    "type": "internship",
    "maxItems": 100
}
```

Click **Start**, and in seconds you get a table like this:

| Title | Company | Location | Stipend | Duration | Actively hiring |
|-------|---------|----------|---------|----------|-----------------|
| Sensor Development | IIT Bombay | Mumbai | ₹5,000–20,000 /month | 4 Months | ✅ |
| Data Analyst | ... | Remote | ₹15,000 /month | 6 Months | ✅ |

Export to **CSV, Excel, JSON, or Google Sheets**, or pull it via the API.

***

### ⚙️ Input

| Field | Required | Description |
|-------|----------|-------------|
| `keyword` | ✅ | Profile/keyword, e.g. `data science`, `marketing`, `python developer`. |
| `type` | — | `internship` (default) or `job` (fresher jobs). |
| `maxItems` | — | Stop after this many results (default `100`). You're charged per result. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | — | Apify Proxy (recommended). |

***

### 📤 Output

Each listing is one clean record:

| Field | Example |
|-------|---------|
| `id` | `"2834507"` |
| `title` | `"Sensor Development"` |
| `company` | `"Indian Institute Of Technology Bombay"` |
| `location` | `"Mumbai"` |
| `stipend` | `"₹ 5,000 - 20,000 /month"` |
| `duration` | `"4 Months"` |
| `activelyHiring` | `true` |
| `applyUrl` | `"https://internshala.com/internship/detail/…"` |
| `type`, `searchKeyword`, `scrapedAt` | your query + a timestamp on every row |

***

### 💰 Pricing

**Pay-per-result: you are charged only for listings actually delivered.** No monthly fee, no charge for empty runs. Set `maxItems` to cap your spend exactly.

***

### ❓ FAQ

**Do I need an Internshala account?** No. It reads public listings only.

**Internships or jobs?** Both — set `type` to `internship` or `job`.

**How fresh is the data?** Every run scrapes live.

**A field came back empty.** Some listings hide a stipend or duration on Internshala itself — those fields are returned empty rather than guessed.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "keyword": "data science",
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}' |
apify call rowsmith/internshala-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
