## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## Gazzetta Ufficiale Italiana Monitor

Monitor the Italian Official Gazette (Gazzetta Ufficiale) for new decrees, laws, and administrative acts. Filter by date range, keyword, or section. Returns structured metadata for every act published in the period: title, redazionale code, section (rubrica), deep link to the full text, and optional ELI URL + PDF link.

### What it does

- Scans `gazzettaufficiale.it` Serie Generale for any date range
- Extracts every act published per gazzetta with structured metadata
- Optional keyword filter (title text, accent-insensitive)
- Optional act-detail enrichment (ELI legal identifier + PDF URL)
- Output: one dataset item per act, ready for downstream RSS / Slack / DB pipelines

### Use cases

**Legal tech / law firm intelligence** — Receive a daily digest of new decrees affecting a specific area of practice (tax, labour, energy, environmental).

**Compliance officer alerts** — Watch for keywords like "PNRR", "agevolazione", "decreto-legge", "sanzione" and forward to internal stakeholders.

**ML / LLM training data** — Build a structured dataset of Italian legislation for fine-tuning legal-domain language models.

**Government affairs / lobbying** — Track regulatory output by ministry or signing authority.

**Academic research** — Quantitative analysis of legislative volume, themes, signing authorities over time.

### Input

```json
{
  "dateFrom": "2026-04-22",
  "dateTo": "2026-04-29",
  "keyword": "PNRR",
  "tipoSerie": "serie_generale",
  "maxGazzette": 30,
  "fetchActDetails": false
}
````

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `dateFrom` | YYYY-MM-DD | 7 days ago | Start of publication date range (inclusive) |
| `dateTo` | YYYY-MM-DD | today | End of publication date range (inclusive) |
| `keyword` | string | (none) | Filter acts by title (case + accent insensitive) |
| `tipoSerie` | enum | `serie_generale` | Gazzetta series — currently only Serie Generale supported |
| `maxGazzette` | int (1-365) | 30 | Cap on gazzette fetched. 1 gazzetta ≈ 20-40 acts |
| `fetchActDetails` | bool | false | Slower, returns ELI URL + PDF link per act |

### Output

One dataset item per act:

```json
{
  "publicationDate": "2026-04-29",
  "gazzettaNumero": 98,
  "tipoSerie": "serie_generale",
