## 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

## Event Scraper — Eventbrite, Luma & Meetup

Scrape events with organiser, venue, dates and ticket pricing from the three platforms most
professional events run on.

Events are pure lead generation: the attendee-facing page lists **who is speaking, who is
sponsoring and who is organising** — exactly the people a BD or sponsorship team wants to reach.
`luma` has roughly **3 competing Actors** on Apify, so this is close to an empty niche.

### What you get per event

`name` · `description` · `url` · **`startsAt`** / `endsAt` · `timezone` · `isOnline` ·
`venue` · `address` · `city` · `region` · `country` · **`organizer`** · `performers[]` ·
**`price`** / `currency` / `isFree` · `ticketUrl` · `image` · `status` · `platform`

### Input

```json
{
  "urls": ["https://www.eventbrite.com/d/online/all-events/"],
  "keywords": ["ai", "startup"],
  "city": "london",
  "since": "2026-09-01",
  "freeOnly": false
}
```

Both single event pages and listing/search pages work.

### Filtering

`keywords` / `excludeKeywords` (name and description) · `city` · `since` / `until` (ISO dates) ·
`onlineOnly` · `freeOnly` · `maxEventsPerUrl`.

### How it works, and its honest limit

Events are read from **schema.org JSON-LD** embedded in the page, which Eventbrite, Luma and Meetup
all publish. That means no headless browser, no API key, and no anti-bot to fight.

The limit: some **search and discovery pages build their result list in JavaScript**, so their
JSON-LD contains no events. When that happens you get a clear error explaining it — never an empty
list dressed up as a successful run. Individual event pages and most listing pages work fine.

### Typical uses

Sponsorship and BD teams building target lists · community managers tracking what is happening in a
city or topic · competitor monitoring for who is speaking where · conference and meetup directories ·
recruiters finding domain gatherings.

# Actor input Schema

## `urls` (type: `array`):

Eventbrite, Luma or Meetup URLs — either a single event page or a listing/search page.

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

Case-insensitive match on event name and description, e.g. ai, startup, marketing.

## `excludeKeywords` (type: `array`):

Drop events whose name or description contains any of these.

## `onlineOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Keep only events marked as online or virtual.

## `freeOnly` (type: `boolean`):

Keep only events whose ticket price is zero.

## `city` (type: `string`):

Keep only events whose city contains this text, e.g. london, berlin.

## `since` (type: `string`):

ISO date, e.g. 2026-09-01. Events starting earlier are dropped.

## `until` (type: `string`):

ISO date, e.g. 2026-12-31. Events starting later are dropped.

## `maxEventsPerUrl` (type: `integer`):

Cap events returned per page. 0 = no cap.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many pages to fetch in parallel.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Optional Apify proxy configuration.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.eventbrite.com/d/online/all-events/"
  ],
  "onlineOnly": false,
  "freeOnly": false,
  "maxEventsPerUrl": 0,
  "concurrency": 3

No description

## `summary` (type: `string`):

No description

## `count` (type: `string`):

# API

You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup.

## JavaScript example

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "urls": [
        "https://www.eventbrite.com/d/online/all-events/"
    ]
};

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("that_red_bird/event-scraper").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
items.forEach((item) => {
    console.dir(item);
});

## Python example

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

# Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
# Replace '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token.
client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_API_TOKEN>")

# Prepare the Actor input
run_input = { "urls": ["https://www.eventbrite.com/d/online/all-events/"] }

# Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
run = client.actor("that_red_bird/event-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)

# Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if there are any)
print(f"💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/{run.default_dataset_id}")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "urls": [
    "https://www.eventbrite.com/d/online/all-events/"
  ]
}' |
apify call that_red_bird/event-scraper --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,that_red_bird/event-scraper"
        }
    }
}

```

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
