# Run Bulk URL Status & Redirect Chain Checker for a ready-made…

**Use case:** 

Run Bulk URL Status & Redirect Chain Checker for a ready-made…. Check thousands of URLs for broken links, redirect chains and HTTP status in one run. Returns every hop of each redirect, the final destination, whether HTTP upgraded to HTTPS, and redirect loops. No browser, no API key. Uses a ready-made sample input so you can try the Actor immediately and adapt it for your workflow or AI agent.

## Input

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://github.com",
    "http://github.com",
    "https://httpbin.org/status/404"
  ],
  "concurrency": 8,
  "maxRedirects": 10,
  "method": "GET"
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",
    "format": "string"
  },

    "label": "OK",
    "format": "boolean"

## 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/technicaldost/bulk-url-status-redirect-checker.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`).
