# List Every Sitemap URL with Lastmod and robots.txt Check

**Use case:** 

Lists up to 1,000 sitemap URLs with lastmod and a robots.txt check, without requesting pages. Costs $0.005 per run plus $0.0003 per URL, at most $0.305 here. Example run on docs.apify.com, Apify's public documentation, whose robots.txt allows crawling. Before you run it on another site, replace the URL and keep the authorisation box ticked only if you own that site or are authorised to audit it.

## Input

```json
{
  "startUrl": "https://docs.apify.com/",
  "authorizedToAudit": true,
  "mode": "sitemap",
  "maxPages": 20,
  "maxSitemapUrls": 1000,
  "discoverFrom": "sitemaps-and-links",
  "sitemapUrls": [],
  "includePageText": true,
  "followQueryLinks": false,
  "maxRequestsPerMinute": 60
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "lastmod": {
    "label": "Last modified",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "changefreq": {
    "label": "Change freq.",
    "format": "string"
  },
  "priority": {

    "format": "number"
  },
  "allowedByRobots": {

  "issues": {

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/syntrovia/sitemap-seo-check-http.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
