## 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.

### Frequently Asked Questions
**Which xHamster pages can this scraper read?**
It reads public listing pages: keyword search, category pages, tag pages, pornstar or creator pages and channel pages. Each of these paginates automatically until your item limit is reached.
**How many videos can I collect in one run?**
As many as the listing exposes. Search results can span hundreds of pages, and category or pornstar pages often run into the thousands, so you can set maxItems into the tens of thousands. Set a smaller limit for quick samples.
**Can I control the order of results?**
Yes. For category, tag, pornstar and channel targets you can sort by newest or best. Keyword search always uses the site relevance order. Use the sort input to choose.
**Why does the scraper use a residential proxy by default?**
A residential proxy is enabled by default so runs work reliably with no setup on your part. You can change the proxy country if you need a specific regional catalog.
**What happens when a field is missing?**
Fields like pornstars, channels or subscriber counts only exist when the video has them, so they can be empty for some records. If a page cannot be loaded, the record carries an error field describing the issue and the rest of the run continues.
