## 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
## DAO Governance Scraper (Snapshot Proposals & Votes)
> Pull DAO governance data at scale from Snapshot: DAO space profiles, governance proposals and individual votes. Export space name, network, followers and proposal counts; proposal title, body, choices, per-choice scores, state, quorum, snapshot block and author; and per-voter address, choice, voting power and timestamp. Filter by space, state, date range, author and minimum votes for crypto, DeFi and DAO research.
**📥 [Input](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/dao-governance-scraper/input-schema) · 📤 [Output](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/dao-governance-scraper/output-schema) · 💰 [Pricing](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/dao-governance-scraper/pricing) · ▶️ [Examples](https://apify.com/scrapers_lat/dao-governance-scraper/examples)**
Spaces, proposals & votes three modes
Scores, quorum & voting power per choice and per voter
JSON / CSV / Excel output formats
### What you get
**Spaces** — space ID, name, network, token symbol, description, followers and total proposal count.
**Proposals** — proposal ID, title, body, voting type, state, author, created / start / end, snapshot block, choices, per-choice scores, leading choice, total voting power, vote count and quorum.
**Votes** — vote ID, voter address, chosen option (index and label), voting power, voting-power state, timestamp and any reason given.
You only pay for real records. Empty or failed runs are never charged. No API key required.
### Who is it for
| Use case | Who benefits |
|---|---|
| DAO research | Analysts and researchers studying governance activity and outcomes |
| DeFi & tokens | Teams tracking proposals, quorum and voter turnout across DAOs |
| Delegates & voters | Delegates monitoring proposals and how voting power is cast |
| Data & dashboards | Builders feeding governance data into their own tools |
### How to use it
1. Pick a **mode**: spaces, proposals or votes.
2. Add one or more **space IDs** (the DAO's Snapshot handle, e.g. `uniswapgovernance.eth`, `ens.eth`). For votes you can instead pass specific **proposal IDs**.
3. Optionally filter proposals by **state**, **author**, **date range** or **minimum votes**.
4. Set **Max Records To Scrape** and run. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull it through the Apify API.
### Frequently Asked Questions
**Where do I find a space ID?**
It is the DAO's Snapshot handle, usually an ENS name such as `uniswapgovernance.eth` or `aavedao.eth`. It appears in the DAO's Snapshot URL.
**Can I get every vote on a proposal?**
Yes. Use votes mode with the proposal IDs (or the space IDs to pull votes from their recent proposals). Votes are returned ordered by voting power.
**How are per-choice results represented?**
Each proposal record carries the choices, the aligned scores array, a human-readable per-choice breakdown, the leading choice and the total voting power cast.
**Does it cover on-chain governance too?**
This actor uses Snapshot (off-chain signalling), which is where most DAOs run governance. It covers spaces, proposals and votes across every Snapshot DAO.
**How fresh is the data?**
Every record is read live at run time, so proposals, scores and votes reflect Snapshot at the moment of the run (see observedAt).
### Export, API and AI agents (x402 + MCP)
Export the scraped data to **JSON, CSV or Excel**, pull it as a **dataset** through the Apify **API**, or wire it into your app with **no code**. This web scraper and data extractor also works for bulk data extraction and scheduled runs.
For AI agents: this Actor is available on **x402**, Apify's agentic payment standard built with Coinbase. An AI agent can discover, pay for and run it on its own with a funded wallet and a single HTTP request: no account, no subscription, no API key and no human in the loop. It also runs as an **MCP** tool inside Claude, Cursor and other AI clients out of the box. Learn more about [x402 agentic payments on Apify](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/x402).

## `proposalIds` (type: `array`):
Optional. In 'votes' mode, pull votes for these specific proposal IDs. If omitted, votes are pulled from the recent proposals of the given spaces.
## `proposalState` (type: `string`):

## `author` (type: `string`):
Optional. Only include proposals created by this wallet address.
## `dateFrom` (type: `string`):
Optional. Only include proposals created on or after this date (ISO date like 2026-01-01, or a unix timestamp).
## `dateTo` (type: `string`):

## `minVotes` (type: `integer`):

## `minScoresTotal` (type: `number`):
Optional. In 'proposals' mode, only keep proposals whose total voting power (scores total) is at least this value.
## `titleSearch` (type: `string`):

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 ` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
