## 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.

  "scraped_emails": ["contact@example.com"],
  "scraped_phones": ["+1 555 987 6543"],
  "scraped_social_media": ["https://www.linkedin.com/company/example"],
  "emails_found": 1,

| `zip` | string | Postal/ZIP code. |
| `country_code` | string | Country code from the listing address fields. |
| `scraped_emails` | array | Emails found on the website (only present when the business is pushed with email lists; flattened output uses `email_found`). |

- If a business has no website, the actor can push it with empty `scraped_emails`, `scraped_phones`, and `scraped_social_media` depending on the flow, and sets `scrape_status` to `no_website`.
- When emails are found, the actor pushes **one row per email** and sets `email_found` accordingly.
