## 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

Search **[Fox News](https://www.foxnews.com)** by keyword and get back the complete
story for every result - full article text, embedded images and videos, authors,
tags, and publish dates - without ever opening a browser. This Actor runs Fox
News' own search API and then automatically visits each result page to extract
its full content, so you get search coverage and deep detail in a single run.
Built for the [Apify platform](https://apify.com), so every run comes with a
ready-to-use API, scheduling, webhooks, and dozens of no-code integrations
(Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, and more).

### Why use this scraper?

- **Media monitoring** - track every Fox News mention of a person, company, or
  topic, with full text ready for downstream NLP or sentiment analysis.
- **Competitive and market research** - pull structured coverage of a story
  across days without manually opening dozens of tabs.
- **Content aggregation** - feed full article bodies and media straight into a
  newsletter, dashboard, or archive.
- **Fast and reliable** - talks directly to Fox News' JSON search API and
  server-rendered article data, so results come back quickly without
  browser-rendering overhead.

### How to use this Fox News Scraper

1. Click **Try for free** (or **Run**) on this Actor's page.
2. Enter one or more **Search keywords** (e.g. `"prabowo"`, `"trump tariffs"`).
3. Optionally adjust **Result types**, **Max results per keyword**, and whether
   to **fetch full detail** for each result.
4. Click **Start** and watch results land in the dataset in real time.
5. Export your results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the **Output** tab, or
   pull them via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2).

### Input

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `keywords` | array of strings | One or more search terms to run against foxnews.com. |
| `resultTypes` | array | Which content types to include: `article`, `video`, `slideshow`, `show`. Defaults to `article`. |
| `maxItemsPerKeyword` | integer | Max results collected per keyword, per result type (up to 100). Default `20`. |
| `fetchFullDetail` | boolean | When `true` (default), opens every result and extracts the full article body, images, embedded videos, authors, and tags. Set to `false` for a faster run that only returns the search snippet. |

See the **Input** tab for the full schema and defaults.

### Output

You can download the dataset in various formats such as JSON, HTML, CSV, or
Excel from the **Output** tab, or fetch it through the Apify API.

#### Main data fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `title`, `description`, `thumbnail`, `canonicalUrl` | Search result snippet. |
| `detailArticleBody` | Full plain-text article body. |
| `detailAuthors` | Byline authors or wire service source (e.g. Associated Press). |
| `detailPrimaryImage`, `detailImages` | Primary and in-body images. |
| `detailVideos` | Embedded/featured videos (id, title, URL). |
| `detailKeywords` | Article tags. |

### Pricing / cost estimation

This Actor is priced per result. Full-detail runs make one additional request
per result (to load the article page), so cost scales with `maxItemsPerKeyword`
and how many `resultTypes` you select. Disable **Fetch full detail** if you only
need the search snippets - it cuts requests roughly in half. \[$2/1000]

### Tips

- Narrow `resultTypes` to just `article` (the default) if you don't need videos,
  slideshows, or shows - it reduces the number of detail pages fetched.
- Keep `maxItemsPerKeyword` reasonable (Fox News search caps at 100 matches per
  query) to control run duration and cost.

### FAQ

**Is this legal?** This Actor only reads publicly available pages on
foxnews.com, the same way a browser would. You are responsible for using the
data in compliance with Fox News' terms of service and applicable law.

**Something looks wrong or missing?** Open an issue on this Actor's Issues tab
and include the keyword and affected URL - Fox News occasionally changes page
markup, and reports help keep the scraper up to date.

**Need a custom version?** Get in touch via the Issues tab to discuss a tailored
build (extra fields, other Fox properties, etc.).
