## 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.

### FAQ — Vsco Phone Number Scraper ❓

#### How Does the Vsco Phone Number Scraper Work?

You provide `keywords` (and optionally `location`) plus a required `country`. The actor then extracts matching phone numbers from public Vsco profile content and writes each match into the Apify dataset as a structured record.

#### What Types of Vsco Profiles Can I Target?

The actor is designed to scrape phone numbers from Vsco profiles, bios, and post content. It focuses on public information and returns results that include the lead’s Vsco URL, extracted phone number, and the dial-code context.

#### What Should I Do If Results Are Fewer Than Expected?

Try broader or more relevant keywords, and consider changing the selected `country`. You can also increase `maxPhoneNumbers` if you want the actor to keep collecting until it reaches a higher cap.

#### Why Use a Vsco Phone Number Scraper Instead of Manual Research?

Manual searching is slow and hard to scale. With automated Vsco scraping, you can run repeatable, keyword-driven contact extraction and quickly export results for lead generation via scraping, outreach, or analysis—without copy-pasting from individual profiles.

#### How Much Data Can I Export?

The dataset stores each extracted phone-number lead with the fields defined in the dataset schema. You can export the full dataset after the run completes, and you can control the maximum collection using `maxPhoneNumbers`.

#### How Do I Contact Support or Request a Feature?

For custom scraping needs, support, or feedback, email <scrapidocontact@gmail.com>.

### Multiple Phone Type

**Phone Types** replaces the old single Number Type choice: select as many kinds
of line as you want and the run collects all of them.

| Type | Kept when the number is |
| --- | --- |
| Mobile | A confirmed mobile |
| Landline | A confirmed fixed line |
| Toll-Free | A freephone number |
| VoIP | An internet-telephony number |
| Premium-Rate | A premium-rate number |
| Shared-Cost | A shared-cost number |

Leave it empty for every type. Each number is checked against its *real* line
type before being kept, so the filter is enforced rather than merely requested.
Numbers on ranges where mobile and landline genuinely cannot be told apart (the
US, Canada and Mexico) are kept rather than silently dropped - discarding them
would quietly lose good leads.

### Outreach links

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `telLink` | A clickable `tel:` link, so a row can be dialled straight from a spreadsheet or CRM |
| `whatsappLink` | A `wa.me` chat link, or empty for a confirmed landline or a number that failed validation |
| `whatsappCapable` | Whether the number is on a line WhatsApp can run on |

`whatsappCapable` is a plain yes/no you can filter on. It never claims the
person actually uses WhatsApp - only that the number is of a kind that could.
Switch the links off with **Include WhatsApp links**; the capability flag is
still reported.

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Enter keywords to search for (e.g., 'Target Keyword').

## `location` (type: `string`):

Filter by location (e.g., 'London', 'California'). Leave empty for global search.

## `country` (type: `string`):

Select the country to target for phone numbers.

## `maxPhoneNumbers` (type: `integer`):

Stop scraping after this many phone numbers are found. Setting a higher limit extends the scraping duration.

## `numberType` (type: `string`):

Restrict results to a specific line type, classified offline via libphonenumber. Any keeps every valid match.

## `phoneTypes` (type: `array`):

Which kinds of line to collect. Pick as many as you like - each number is checked against its real line type before it is kept. Leave empty for every type. Numbers on ranges where mobile and landline cannot be told apart (the US, Canada and Mexico) are always kept rather than silently dropped.

## `includeWhatsappLinks` (type: `boolean`):

Add a ready-made wa.me chat link for numbers on a line WhatsApp can run on. The link means the number is in a form WhatsApp accepts - not proof that an account exists.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "keywords": [
