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.

This actor sends only HTTP requests - no browser needed - making it fast, lightweight, and reliable for bulk data collection. ### Why Use This Actor? - **Financial news monitoring** - track CNBC markets and economy coverage programmatically. - **Sentiment analysis** - feed CNBC articles into NLP pipelines to gauge market sentiment. - **Research aggregation** - combine CNBC content with other financial sources for comprehensive market monitoring. - **Earnings coverage** - CNBC provides same-day earnings analysis across all major market sectors. ### How It Works This actor uses **only HTTP requests** - no browser, no Selenium, no Playwright. Articles are extracted in seconds with RAM usage well under 256 MB. ### Input ```json { "url": "https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/13/example-article.html", "urls": [ "https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/13/article-one.html", "https://www.cnbc.com/2026/04/13/article-two.html" ] , "mode": "article", "limit": 10 } ```` ### Output ```json { "url": "https://www.cnbc.com/2026/05/15/china-us-oil-iran-war-strait-hormuz-trump-xi.html", "source": "CNBC", "title": "How China and U.S. eased the Middle East oil shock and kept prices from spiking even higher", "description": "", "content": "China and the United States have provided critical support to the oil market and helped ease the huge supply disruption in the Middle East and kept energy prices from surging even higher.

A cron expression like `*/30 * * * *` runs it every 30 minutes. 2. **Webhook** the dataset of the latest run into another Actor run with `mode: "article"` and the new URLs as input — Apify integrations let you chain runs via the "Actor finished" webhook without any glue code. 3. The article-mode run extracts the full body, image, authors, and metadata for each URL and appends to your master dataset. Common cron expressions: | Frequency | Cron | |---|---| | Every 15 minutes | `*/15 * * * *` | | Hourly | `0 * * * *` | | Every 6 hours | `0 */6 * * *` | | Daily at 06:00 UTC | `0 6 * * *` | ### Other News Actors Need a different news source?
