## 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

## Mojeek Focus Search Scraper

Scrapes Mojeek Focus results within built-in or custom site sets. Extracts titles, URLs, domains, snippets, dates, tags, focus metadata, and pagination without login.

### What this Actor collects

The Actor converts structured search results into clean JSON records that can be downloaded, queried through the Apify API, or sent to downstream workflows.

- Uses the input limits and filters below to control the crawl.
- Stores source-backed fields defined by the 36-field dataset schema.
- Omits optional fields when the source does not expose a value instead of writing nulls or fabricated placeholders.

### Use cases

- Search and competitor research
- Ranking and visibility monitoring
- Dataset and workflow enrichment

### Input

Provide input in JSON. Fields marked required must be supplied; source-specific alternatives and constraints are described in the field text.

| Field | Type | Required | Default | Description |
| --- | --- | :---: | --- | --- |
| `query` | string | Yes | `"artificial intelligence"` | The search query to look up on Mojeek Focus. |
| `focusTemplate` | string | No | `"News"` | Name of a built-in Mojeek Focus template to use. Available templates: News, Recipes, TechNews, Education, Encyclopedias, FactCheckers, Weather, Dictionary, Cybersecurity, GameDevAssets, Passwords, PrivacyAuthorities, PrivacyBlogs, SmallWeb, Texas, Time. Leave empty and use focusSites for a custom focus. |
| `focusSites` | string | No | `""` | Custom list of sites to focus search on, as a JSON array of domain strings. E.g. \["wikipedia.org", "britannica.com"]. Overrides focusTemplate if set. |
| `maxItems` | integer | No | `50` | Maximum number of search results to scrape. |
| `language` | string | No | `"en"` | Language code for results (e.g. 'en', 'de', 'fr', 'es'). Mojeek uses ISO 639-1 codes. |
| `safeSearch` | string | No | `"0"` | Safe search level: `"0"` (off), `"1"` (moderate), or `"2"` (strict). |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | No | `{"useApifyProxy":true}` | Proxy settings for the scraper. Residential proxies recommended for reliable results. |

#### Example input

  "query": "artificial intelligence",
  "maxItems": 50,
