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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Zacks Rank Stock Scraper Extract the **Zacks Rank** — the proprietary 1 (Strong Buy) to 5 (Strong Sell) stock rating used by investors and analysts — along with a full quote snapshot for any US stock ticker. No login, no API key, no subscription required. ### What data do you get? | Field | Type | Example | |---|---|---| | ticker, name, companyShortName | string | `AAPL`, `Apple Inc.` | | exchange, logoUrl, url | string | `NASDAQ` | | **zacksRank, zacksRankText** | number, string | `3`, `"Hold"` | | price, previousClose, open | number | `313.39` | | dayHigh, dayLow, yearHigh, yearLow | number | 52-week range | | change, changePercent, volume | number | | | preAfterChange, preAfterChangePercent | number | pre/after-market move | | marketCap, peRatio, peForward, eps | number | | | dividend, dividendYield, dividendFrequency, dividendDate | number/string | | | confirmedReportingDate, expectedReportingDate | string | next earnings date | | marketStatus, marketTime, updatedAt | string | live market state | 31 fields per ticker, merged into a single record. ### How to use 1. Open the actor and enter one or more ticker symbols (e.g. `AAPL`, `MSFT`, `TSLA`) 2. Click **Start** 3. Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel ### Use cases - **Quant screening**: filter your portfolio or watchlist by Zacks Rank to spot Strong Buy/Sell signals - **Portfolio monitoring**: track rank changes and earnings dates across your holdings - **Trading research**: combine Zacks Rank with valuation and dividend data for a single-call snapshot - **Alerting/automation**: feed the data into dashboards or bots that react to rank or price changes - **Academic/data science**: build datasets combining a proprietary rating signal with standard fundamentals ### Input parameters ```json { "tickers": ["AAPL", "MSFT", "TSLA"] } ```` | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `tickers` | array of strings | Yes | Ticker symbols to look up. Case-insensitive. | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | No | Optional — the actor works reliably without a proxy in most cases. | ### Example output (JSON) ```json { "ticker": "AAPL", "name": "Apple Inc.", "companyShortName": "Apple", "exchange": "NASDAQ", "price": 313.39, "previousClose": 313.39, "dayHigh": 314.82, "dayLow": 307.05, "yearHigh": 317.4, "yearLow": 201.5, "zacksRank": 3, "zacksRankText": "Hold", "marketCap": 4602870496840, "peRatio": 35.53, "eps": 8.27, "dividendYield": 0.35, "confirmedReportingDate": "07/30/2026", "marketStatus": "Full Trading Day (Market Closed)", "url": "https://www.zacks.com/stock/quote/AAPL", "extractedAt": "2026-07-09T09:58:30.860Z" } ``` ### Performance Typically returns results in a few seconds, even for larger ticker lists — data for multiple tickers is retrieved efficiently in batches. ### Pricing Pay-per-event: **$10.00 per 1,000 results** ($0.01 per stock). Every Apify account gets $5 in free usage per month, enough to try this actor at no cost. ### Related actors - **[FinViz Stock Screener](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/finviz-stock-screener)** — technical screeners (top gainers, most active) with 61 fundamental/technical fields per stock. - **[Yahoo Finance Scraper](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/yahoo-finance-scraper)** — real-time quotes, fundamentals and historical OHLCV by ticker. - **[SEC EDGAR Scraper](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/sec-edgar-scraper)** — company filings, Form 4 insider trades, XBRL financials and 13F fund holdings. - **[Dividend & ETF Scraper](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/dividend-etf-scraper)** — full dividend history and ETF holdings, expense ratio and yield by ticker. - **[Financial Calendar Scraper](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/financial-calendar-scraper)** — earnings, dividends, splits and IPO calendars. - **[Congressional Stock Trades Scraper](https://apify.com/sheshinmcfly/congress-stock-trades-scraper)** — every House member stock trade disclosed under the STOCK Act, with disclosure-delay signals. ### FAQ **Do I need a Zacks account or subscription?** No. This actor extracts publicly available quote data — no login required. **Can I look up any ticker?** Yes, any US-listed common stock. Zacks Rank covers common stocks only — warrants, units, preferred shares, and structured notes are not rated by Zacks and are skipped rather than returned as empty records. **How often is the data updated?** It reflects the current market state (live during trading hours, most recent close when markets are closed). **What does the Zacks Rank mean?** 1 = Strong Buy, 2 = Buy, 3 = Hold, 4 = Sell, 5 = Strong Sell — Zacks' proprietary rating based on earnings estimate revisions. ### Keywords zacks rank, stock rating, stock screener, stock scraper, financial data api, earnings calendar, dividend yield, market cap, stock research, quant screening ### Legal Disclaimer This actor extracts publicly available stock market data.
