## 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

## Contact Details Scraper

Extract contact information from any website — emails, phone numbers, and social media links — in a single run. Give it a list of URLs and get back one consolidated contact record per site. No API keys needed.

### How It Works

For each URL you provide, the scraper:

1. Visits the homepage
2. Discovers internal links — contact, about, impressum, and privacy pages are always crawled first
3. Extracts email addresses from page text and `mailto:` links
4. Extracts phone numbers from `tel:` links and international-format text
5. Finds social media profile links (LinkedIn, Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Xing)
6. Returns one record per website with all contact details consolidated

Challenge pages (bot-protection walls) are skipped automatically so the run keeps going.

### Use with AI Agents (MCP)

Connect this actor to any MCP-compatible AI client — Claude Desktop, Claude.ai, Cursor, VS Code, LangChain, LlamaIndex, or custom agents.

**Apify MCP server URL:**

````

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=santamaria-automations/contact-details-scraper

````

**Example prompt once connected:**

> "Use `contact-details-scraper` to extract all contact details from acme-corp.com and return the emails and LinkedIn profile."

Clients that support dynamic tool discovery (Claude.ai, VS Code) will receive the full input schema automatically via `add-actor`.

### Input Example

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "acme-corp.com",
    "https://www.another-company.de",
    "https://startup.io/contact"
  ],
  "maxPagesPerUrl": 10
}
````

Bare domains (`acme-corp.com`) and full URLs are both accepted.

### Output Example

```json
[
  {
    "url": "https://acme-corp.com",
    "domain": "acme-corp.com",
    "emails": ["info@acme-corp.com", "sales@acme-corp.com"],
    "phones": ["+1 555 123 4567"],
    "social_links": {
      "linkedin": "https://linkedin.com/company/acme-corp",
      "twitter": "https://twitter.com/acmecorp",
      "facebook": "https://facebook.com/acmecorp"
    },
    "pages_crawled": 7,
    "scraped_at": "2026-04-29T10:00:00Z"
  }
]
```

### Pricing

You pay per website processed — one charge per contact record regardless of how many emails or phone numbers were found.

| Event | Price | Description |
|-------|-------|-------------|
| Actor start | $0.25 | Covers container startup |
| Contact result | $0.0005 | Per website contact record produced ($0.50/1k) |

**Example costs:**

| Websites | Cost |
|----------|------|
| 1 website | $0.2505 |
| 100 websites | $0.30 |
| 1,000 websites | $0.75 |
| 10,000 websites | $5.25 |

No monthly fees. No minimum spend.

### Input Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Default | Description |
|-----------|------|---------|-------------|
| `urls` | string\[] | required | Website URLs or bare domains to scrape |
| `maxPagesPerUrl` | integer | 10 | Max pages to crawl per site (1–50) |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify proxy | Proxy settings |

### Output Fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `url` | string | Input URL that was scraped |
| `domain` | string | Normalized domain name |
| `emails` | string\[] | All unique email addresses found (lowercase) |
| `phones` | string\[] | Phone numbers from tel: links and international-format text |
| `social_links` | object | Social media profiles found (linkedin, twitter, facebook, instagram, youtube, xing) |
| `pages_crawled` | integer | Number of pages visited |
| `scraped_at` | string | ISO timestamp of when the record was produced |

### Tips

- **Contact and impressum pages are checked first** — the scraper prioritizes `/contact`, `/kontakt`, `/impressum`, `/about`, and similar paths
- **10 pages covers most SMB sites** — most business sites expose all contact info within the first 10 pages
- **Increase to 20–50 pages** for large corporate sites or to find role-specific emails (hr@, press@)
- **One record per website** — all emails, phones, and social links from a site are consolidated into a single row, making it easy to use in spreadsheets or CRMs

# Actor input Schema

## `urls` (type: `array`):

List of website URLs or domains to scrape for contact details. Both bare domains (example.com) and full URLs (https://www.example.com) are accepted.

## `maxPagesPerUrl` (type: `integer`):

Maximum number of pages to crawl per website. Contact, about, and impressum pages are always prioritized. Higher values find more contact details but take longer.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional Apify proxy. Most public marketing/contact pages do not need a proxy; enable only for sites that block direct traffic.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://example.com"
  ],
  "maxPagesPerUrl": 10,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": false
  }
