Scrape DEV.to articles by tag or author via the public API: title, author, tags, reactions, comments, reading time, description and optional full Markdown content. Clean JSON, CSV or Excel. No login, no API key, no browser.

Why this actor exists (demand): the DEV.to niche draws ~44 monthly users on Apify Store. This actor reads the DEV.to API directly and returns a rich, engagement-aware record (reactions, comments, reading time) for content monitoring, developer-trend research and RAG / LLM ingestion.

What you can scrape

  • By tag - javascript, python, webdev, ai, react - paged through fully (hundreds of articles per tag).
  • By author - every article by a DEV.to username.
  • Full content - optionally fetch each article's full Markdown body.

Each article returns: title, url, author, authorUsername, organization, description, content (optional), tags, reactions, comments, readingTimeMin, coverImage, publishedAt.

Example input

{ "tags": ["python", "machine-learning"], "maxResults": 200, "includeContent": true }

Use with AI assistants (MCP)

Available through the Apify MCP server.

Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire)

This actor is agent-ready - AI agents can discover it, run it, and pay for it autonomously, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses pay-per-event pricing and limited permissions, so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards:

  • x402 - an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the Apify MCP server - no account, no API key.
  • Skyfire - agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows.

Pricing

Pay-per-event, tiered by volume: $0.003 per article at the free tier, down to $0.00075 at the top tier.
