## 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.

### What you get
Each record is one party on the US Consolidated Screening List: an individual, company, vessel or aircraft that is sanctioned, denied or restricted by the US government. The list merges the denied-party and sanctions lists maintained by the Department of Commerce, the Department of the Treasury and the Department of State into a single feed, so you can screen customers, suppliers and counterparties against all of them at once.

- **altNames**: aliases, also-known-as and formerly-known-as names
- **type**: party type such as Individual, Entity, Vessel or Aircraft
- **sourceList**: which list the party appears on, for example SDN, Entity List or Denied Persons List

- **countries**: every country linked to the party through address, nationality or citizenship
- **addresses**: full address records with street, city, state, postal code and country
- **ids**: identifiers such as passport, national ID, tax ID, registration number and more, with issuing country
- **datesOfBirth**: dates of birth for individuals
- **placesOfBirth**: places of birth for individuals
- **nationalities**: nationalities for individuals
- **citizenships**: citizenships for individuals
- **startDate**: date the listing took effect where reported
- **endDate**: date the listing ended or was updated where reported
- **standardOrder**: standard order text for denied-party listings

### Frequently Asked Questions
**Which lists does this cover?**
It covers the full US Consolidated Screening List: the Specially Designated Nationals list and other Treasury lists, the Entity List, Denied Persons List and Unverified List from Commerce, and the debarred and nonproliferation lists from the State Department. You can pull all of them at once or filter to specific lists.
**How do I filter to the records I want?**
Use any combination of a name or keyword, one or more source lists, an entity type (Individual, Entity, Vessel or Aircraft), a country and a sanctions program. Leave a filter blank to ignore it.
**How current is the data?**
The underlying screening list is refreshed frequently from the publishing agencies, and each run collects the latest published records at the time it runs. The observedAt field records when each record was collected.
**How many records can I collect in one run?**
Set the limit with Max Items. You can pull a handful of matches for a single name or the entire list of tens of thousands of parties in one run.
**Can I use this for compliance screening?**
Yes. This is official US public denied-party and sanctions data intended for legitimate screening, KYB and AML compliance. Always confirm a potential match against the official source and follow your own compliance procedures before acting on it.
### 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).

The US Consolidated Screening List is published in the public domain for compliance use. This data should be used only for legitimate sanctions screening, denied-party checks and KYB or AML compliance, and a potential match should always be confirmed against the official source before any action is taken.
